Here is Sarah's Obituary:
DEATH OF MRS. ECCLES
Octogenarian Passes Peacefully Away At Residence in This City.
Sarah Hutchinson Eccles, in her eighty-eighth year passed to her rest at 4:30 p.m. on June 11, at the residence of her daughter, Mrs. R. M Baird, 721 east Eighth south street. Mrs. Eccles had been gradually declining for a number of years, in fact ever since the demise of her husband several years ago, she has not been strong. She was seized with a sinking spell Tuesday afternoon, and in a short time passed peacefully away.
Mrs. Eccles was the mother of six surviving children, who are quite prominent in the affairs of the state. David Eccles, of Ogden, was her son, as were also Stewart and William and John Eccles of Oregon, while Mrs. Margaret Swinger of Baker City, and Mrs. R. M. Baird, of this city, were daughters of the deceased. Between four and five years ago Mrs. Eccles, with her husband, celebrated her diamond wedding, probably the only case in the history of Utah where a couple have lived together long enough to celebrate the diamond anniversary. Mrs. Eccles was highly respected by all who knew her, for she had led an active and useful life.
The remains were taken to Ogden this morning, where funeral services were held at 11 o'clock this morning in the Fifth ward meetinghouse.
