FAGALA, Mrs. Jess - (from Hebron} Our community was deeply shocked Wednesday when the news was circulated that Mrs. Jess Fagala was dead. Death was quick to take her without any warning. At six o'clock she told her husband to light the lamp, it was so dark, and before much help could be summoned her spirit had entered the other place. The most heartbreaking part is leaving a month old baby boy, also a little 6 year old girl. It breaks a happy home and leaves the husband in clouds of despair and lonesomeness. Words cannot express the sympathy we all feel for the bereaved ones. They are father, mother, one sister and eight brothers, the first beautiful flower to be transplanted from their home. Mrs. Fagala was a member of the Baptist church since early youth and lived a life to be a pleasure and profit to all her associates and died at the early age of 28 years. The body was tenderly laid away in the Pleasant Grove cemetery. May the bereaved ones look to the One who gives solace to aching hearts.
