Tipton - Susan - Montgomery InGenWeb Project

Mrs. Susan Tipton, aged 45 years, departed this life last Saturday morning. The deceased had been suffering from some time of fatty degeneration and a few weeks ago went to Indianapolis and underwent an operation for relief. The operation only relived her for a short time and since her return home had grown gradually worse and though her death was not unexpected, yet it was a sad blow to the community. The funeral services were conducted at the home Sunday at 10 a.m. by Rev. Ashley, of Lebanon. Interment was at the Jesse Cemetery. Two sons, Harry and Fred and two daughters, Maude Tipton and Mrs. Gertrude Routh, survive her. -s

Mrs. Susie Tipson passed through the portals of death to that world beyond Friday night and her remains were laid in their last resting place in the Jesse cemetery Sunday forenoon.  Some time ago she underwent a surgical operation at Indianapolis and returned home a few weeks ago but kept constantly sinking until at last the death angel claimed her. She leaves a number of relatives and friends. --- kbz
