HUNICK, Anna


Yampa Leader (Yampa, Routt County) Aug 15, 1913 Page: 1 "OBITUARY Thursday afternoon at 2 0'clock from the Congregational church occurred the funeral of Mrs. Anna Hunick, Rev. G. A. Ellis conducting the service. Mrs. Hunick was born at Trenton, N. J., March 20 18?1, and moved with her parents to Cedar county, Iowa, in 18?8. She was married to Charles H. Hunick in 1871, and in 1879 the family moved to Kansas, going from there to Oklahoma in 1883, and coming to Yampa in 1910. These changes of residence were made on account of the ill health of Mrs. Hu- nick, and the first years in Colorado she seemed to improve, but during the past year has been failing, and about seven weeks ago it was thought best to take her to the Yampa hospital for an opera- tion, but after examination the doctors decided not to operate. She leaves a husband and five chil- dren, Mrs. Louisa Covert, Tulsa, Okla., Mrs. Shirley Margerum, Watonga, Okla., John Hunick, Shawnee, Okla., Bert W. Hunick and Mrs. Blanche Miller, Yam- pa, to mourn her decease. The husband and children were all present and as Mrs. Hunick was conscious up to a few hours before her death, which occurred Wednesday morning, this was a great consolation to her. Mrs. Hunick was a member of the United Brethred church and a fine christian character. A kind and loving wife and mother, and during her resi- dence in Yampa she won the love and regard of all her friends and neighbors by her unfailing sweetness of manner and the sympathy of all is with the be- reaved family. Although suffering great- ly during the past year, she was always cheerful and ever had a kind and en- couraging word for those about her, and her sweet faith in the blessings of Heaven will always be a source of conso- lation to those by whose ????side she is only in spirit. There is no death; The stars go down To rise upon some other shore, And bright in Heaven's jeweled crown They shine forevermore."
