The sad news of the death of Mrs. Mabel Foster was received here Sunday morning, she having passed away at the Clarkson Hospital in Omaha Saturday night. Her death was a shock to her many friends here. She has been in poor health the past few months and had been at the home of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Ed Newkirk near Orum and it was not generally known here that her illness was serious. She is survived by her husband, Wm., her parents, brothers and sisters and numerous other relatives and friends. Short services were held at the home at two o’clock Tuesday afternoon and later at the church conducted by Rev. T. J. Reese of Pawnee City, Neb., a former pastor of the Baptist Church here. Burial was made in the Orum Cemetery near her girlhood home. We extend our sympathy to the bereaved ones.

#2 from the Orum Briefs in the August 9, 1928 Enterprise, Blair, Nebraska:

Many were in attendance at the funeral of Mrs. Floyd Foster last Tuesday afternoon. Mable was born Dec. 18, 1898, and passed away July 29, 1928, so was not quite thirty years old. Rev.

Besides her husband, she leaves to mourn her early death, her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Ed Newkirk; five sisters, Mrs. Fred Skov, Mrs. Ted Buckardt, ?len, Opia lee and Hazel, and brother, Raymond. Orum friends extend sincere sympathy to the bereaved ones.
