Los Angeles Times - January 28, 1903:

FUNERAL OF MRS. BRUNDIGE.

Yesterday morning Mrs. Bessie B. Brundige, the young wife of Harley W. Brundige, the associate editor of the Express, was laid to rest in a vault at Rosedale Cemetery.

The funeral services were conducted by Rev. A. C. Smither, and were the simplest and gentlest that loving forethought could arrange. Mrs. Alice Eaton-Smith sang "One Sweetly Solemn Thought," and Gage Christopher gave a splendid rendering of "Thy Will Be Done." The casket was banked high with the most beautiful floral pieces.

Mrs. Brundige was only 33. She and her husband had been chums and sweethearts since she was a little toddling miss of 5. Their home life had but one cloud - her ill-health. She had lung trouble, and fought so long and pluckily that she seemed at last to have recovered; it was pneumonia, at last, which caused her death.

Mrs. Brundige was a sweet and gentle woman, and made many loyal friends among the newspaper writers by her gracious kindness. Her little smiling excursions through the local room on the way to her husband's sanctum will be a gentle remembrance to those who knew her.
