Six carloads of Mazomanie people attended the funeral services for Mrs. Edith Barnes, held Saturday at 2:00 p.m. at the Frautschi Funeral parlors in Madison.
Rev. Austin was in charge of the services and was assisted by the Rev. Oscar Adam of the University Methodist church. The pallbears were Roy Denu, P. K. Drake, Walter Schumann, John Parman, Alfred , and Frank .
Mrs. Barnes died in a Madison hospital on the previous Thursday shortly after midnight following an illness of several weeks.
Survivors include her mother, Mrs. Willett, of Belleville, Wis., several brothers and sisters, five daughter, Mary, Jeanne, Carol, Lois, and Elaine, all at home and three sons, Roderick, of Minneapolis, Minn, David and Timothy, at home.
Mrs. Barnes was 46 years old. She had been president of the Woman's Society of Christian Service of the Mazomanie Methodist church since Jan. 1, 1942. A few weeks before she was taken to the hospital with her final illness she had entered upon her duties as editor of the Sickle, a work in which she took a great interest and through which she hoped to be of service to her community.
She had the distinction of having everyone that knew her as a sincere friend. A failing heart took her away.
