From: The Record-Commercial Thursday march 24, 1910 page 3, column 4
LASALLE (Monroe Co., Michigan)
Twice within one year the angel of death entered the home of A. C. Reynolds
and bore a loved one home. Mrs. Sylvia Clark who resided with her daughter
Mrs. C. A. Reynolds since the death of her son not quite a year ago was
stricken with rheumatism last August and never recovered. All that loving
hands could do was done but, to no avail as she died from grief over the
loss of her son as much as from sickness. Grandma Clark departed this life
on March the 18th, Rev. Burns from Monroe, officiated. The church was
crowded to the entrance with neighbors and friends who wished to pay a
lasting and loving tribute to an old neighbor..........(need to find rest of obit)
