MRS. STORM DIED FRIDAY

SUCCUMBED TO PNEUMONIA AFTER AN ILLNESS OF BUT EIGHT DAYS AT HOME ON WALKER AVENUE

Mrs. Anna Margaret Storm, widow of the late Claus Storm, passed away at about 11:35 last Friday morning after an illness of but eight days of pneumonia, following a flu attack. She was 78 years of age last November, but had been quite well and active until taken down with the flu.

The funeral service was held at the family home on south Walker Avenue at 2 o’clock Sunday afternoon, Rev. A.F. Newell officiating. Burial was in the Blair cemetery by the side of her husband, whose death occurred December 24th, 1901, and her son, Theodore, who died in April, 1917, at the age of 40.

Anna Margaret Claudine Ahrens was born in Tellingsteet, Germany, November 17th, 1849. She grew to womanhood there and was married to Claus Storm, to which union three children were born, of whom but Edward and Millie, Mrs. Leonard Axtell, survive.

The family came to Omaha in November of 1888, living there for eight years. They moved to a farm near Irvington and spent five years. After a year in Ft. Calhoun they moved to this city, which has been their home most of the time since.

Mrs. Storm loved her home and her family and devoted all her energies to them, so was not so well known outside her neighbors and the family circle. Those who knew her loved her and she will be greatly missed by them.

CARD OF THANKS: We wish in this way to express our deepest thanks and sincere appreciation for the many kindnesses shown us by the neighbors and friends during the illness and after the death of our beloved mother. We want to especially thank the minister and singers for their kindly services and all who sent the beautiful flowers in her memory. Edward Storm, Mr. and Mrs. Leonard Axtell
