Stebbins, on the new M-21, following a brief illness of flu. The funeral services will be conducted Sunday, 2 o’clock at the home of her son and 2:30 at the Easton Community church. Burial will be in Ionia. Mrs. Buchanan was the last of a family of nine children and I.C. Stebbins is her only child. However, she leaves grandchildren, great-grandchildren and four great great grandchildren. It was only a few weeks ago that a family gathering of four generations was held in honor of her birthday. In spite of the fact, she was nearly blind and had been so several years, she was one of the happiest in the crowd. She was one of the most patient persons to accept whatever came her lot and never missed an opportunity to show a courtesy in thanking every person for the slightest favor. She was a member of the Weslyan Methodist Church.
