Mrs. F. J. Berkenhoff, 62 years, and 10 months old, died suddenly at her home near Baursville Sunday evening at 7 o'clock. She was conversing with her children when she became ill and expired in a few minutes. Heart failure was the cause of death.

The funeral was held from the family home Tuesday morning at 9 o'clock, interment taking place in the Catholic cemetery at Praha, Rev. John Anders officiating.

Mrs. Berkenhoff, nee Annie Kobza, was a native of Czechoslovakia and came to Texas at the age of six years. She was married to F. J. Berkenhoff about 44 years ago and the union was blessed with twelve children, all of whom are living. Mr. Berkenhoff preceded his wife to the grave six months ago.

The children are: P. J., Ben, Emil, Fred, Ewald and Liberat Berkenhoff, Mrs. Julia Nesrsta, Mrs. Jim Welfl, Mrs. Ad. Nesrsta, Mrs. Joe Hollub, Mrs. Anton Concaba and Mrs. Tobie Koratshmar. She also leaves 34 grandchildren.
