Mrs. Furrey was the second daughter of Mr. Thomas Wills, of thialk:eillage, and was born here 37 years. etge. • She was widely known in thie' .dietrict where she grew to wornanhciod and resided until she went to Vancauver to visit her sister, Mrs. Cucheore. In July, 1918, she was united in mar- riage to Mr. Roy Furrey, .of Kin- dersley, where she has since 'resided. Early in life Mrs. Furrey became a member of filtt Andrew's church and her devoted Christian life was in keeeieg with her profession and was much' and desex.vedlY loved by all who knew her. She has been removed from a true and loving husband and a little daughter of 13 months, who will never know the tender love of a -mother, but such are the uncertainties of life and the inscrutable ways of an all wise Providence. The sincer- est sympathy that litiman heart can bestow will be extendedtoMr. Furrey in this the hour of the most severe bereaventent which can befall a man thitt life. The deceased is survived by her sorrowing husband and little daughter, and also by her aged fa- ther, two brothers and three sisters, John C., of Detroit; Wilfrid L., at lomef Mrs. Ed.
