Oliver Still & Wife

Mrs. Bessie Still Widener (sp) has returned from Buffalo, Wyo., where she went following a telegram informing her that her brother, Oliver, was seriously ill with flu. Mrs. Widener (sp) left at once and arrived in time for her brother to know her. However, Mr. Still died and was followed in death by his wife, who contracted the same disease and lived but a few days.
Six children, four girls and two boys, ranging in age from fifteen years to three months, are left orphans. The children were all sick during Mrs Widener's (sp) stay and for many days one little fellow hovered between life an death with slight chance for recovery but is now on the road to health. It was a peculiarly sad circumstance and Mrs. Widener (sp) has the sympathy of many friends.

After her sister-in-law and brother's death within days of each other, Bessie Ann Still (Evans, Weidner) Piercy, Find A Grave Memorial #102936285, moves back permanently to Buffalo, WY from Iowa with her husband, John W Weidner, Find A Grave Memorial #102937462, to raise Oliver and Georgia's children. Just imagine, to the two youngest, Paul and Phyllis, and possible James, Jr who was just a few days shy of his 4th birthday, Bessie was the only mother they ever knew.
