Mrs. W. R. Lyons died at the home in Grant last Thursday evening from apoplexy, lingering twenty-two hours after being stricken down. The funeral occured from the house last Saturday under charge of Rev. W. J. Hathaway and the interment was made at Cherry Grove cemetery.
Elizabeth A. Reinhardt Lyons was born in Wayne county in 1845. When seven years of age she and her parents went to Lockport, Ill., where later in 1863 she was married to W. R. Lyons. In 1882 Mr. and Mrs. Lyons moved to Clare county and located on the farm north of Clare where they have lived ever since, experiencing many of the incidents of developing a farm out of virgin soil.
Besides a husband, three children survive to mourn the loss of a loved mother: Mrs. George Abbott of Grant, George, of Bay City and Mrs. Nial Keyser of Flint. The Sentinel extends its sympathy to the bereaved family.
