Young Matron is Called by Death
Mrs. Joe Joseph Passes Away at her Mother’s Home in Mill Valley
Mrs. Eva McClure Joseph, the young wife of Joe Joseph of Sausalito, and the daughter of Mrs. R. K. Payne of Mill Valley, passed away quietly at the home of her mother on Blithedale Ave. last Sunday evening. Mrs. Joseph, who was only 20 years of age, had been ill for some time and a few weeks ago was brought from her own home in Sausalito to that of her mother in Mill Valley.
The funeral was held Tuesday from the residence, Rev. Father Valentini officiating, and was largely attended by friends and relatives of the young woman. Interment took place at Manzanita Cemetery.
Mrs. Joseph was one of the earthquake brides of Marin, having been married just a week after that memorable disaster. Her husband, Joe Joseph, has been an employee of t he Northwestern Pacific Railroad for 8 years, and is well known and popular in his home town, Sausalito. He is a member of several fraternal organizations and has a host of friends to extend sympathy in his bereavement.
The Payne family is well known in Mill Valley and much sincere sorrow is felt at the untimely demise of one of its young members.
