ANSWERING THE DEATH SUMMONS
Stevens County Residents Among Those Receiving The Last Call
Mrs. E.E. Latson
Funeral Services will be held Friday afternoon at 2 o'clock at the Congregational church for Mrs. Christena Latson, 63, wife of E.E. Latson, who died at a hospital here October 5. The Rev. E.R. Hunt will officiate. Arrangements are in charge of McCord and Cory Mortuary. There will be services at the graveside in Highland Cemetery by the Neighbors of Woodcraft.
Mrs. Latson was born in Blythe, Ont., and came to this vicinity 30 years ago. She was married to E.E. Latson, pioneer teacher of this vicinity of this section in 1922 and they made their home in Colville since that time with the exception of four years when Mr. Latson taught at Addy and they spent the winters there. Mrs. Latson was a member of the Congregational church, the Women's Relief Corps and the Neighbors of Woodcraft. She was an active and capable woman with a wide circle of friends in the community.
Mrs. Latson is survived by her husband; a daughter, Mrs. W.J. Pinkston, Sullivan, Ind; two brothers and four sisters, living in Canada. Mrs. Pinkston and her son have been here for several weeks with Mrs. Latson, and a brother visited here recently. Mrs. Latson will be remembered by some old timers in the county better by her former name of Mrs. Frank Schultz.

Thank you for offering to do this. I'm looking for the obituaries of a couple who died within less than two years of each other, leaving at least four children. The mother, DELLA BERVAR, died first on 29 March 1928. The father, FLORIN BERVAR, died on 16 October 1929. Both died in Colville. Their surname may be spelled Berwar.

Thank you very much. This will be a great help.

I apologize for an error in spelling:
Should be Berver, Florian instead of Florin

I have the obituaries for Berver you requested. One is more a news item and contents not appropriate to post on this message board.
Please email me at hepsubah@centurytel.net and I will send them to you privately.
