MARIAN IDA SHURTLEFF Marian Ida Shurtleff, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. S. J. Kenepp of this place, was born at Minneapolis, Minnesota, Nov. 13, 1898. Moved with her parents to Tyvan, Sasketchewan, Canada, October 1903. After spending three years there on a large ranch the family moved to Lordsburg, California, in November, 1906. At Lordsburg, in December of 1907, she united with The Church of The Brethren, of which she remained a consistent member until death, having walked in the path of the just, "That shineth more and more unto the perfect day." The last few weeks of her life she served as assistant teacher in the primary department of the Sunday School and exercised in this capacity just the day before her death, which at the last came so suddenly. With her parents she moved from California to Payette in April, 1908. July 18, 1916 she was united in marriage to Mr. E. D. Shurtleff, a graduate of the Payette High School. To this union was born one child, Byron George. She has been a patient sufferer in affliction for over three years, having had the "flu" in February 1919, from which she never fully recovered, though all was done for her that modern science and skill could do. She spent several months of this time in a Sanitorium near Portland and continued to take treatment from there until the time of her death; which occured Monday evening, March 20 at 8 o'clock, in the presence of her parents, little son, and a local physician. She is survived by her kind and loving husband, little son Byron, age 4, her parents, and a host of other relatives and friends who deeply mourn her loss. Funeral services will be conducted from the Christian Church, Thursday afternoon at two o'clock by Rev. H. G. Shank, assisted by Rev. Mowe and others. Interment in Riverside Cemetery.
