The community was made very sad Monday morning when the news was spread announcing the death of Roberta, daughter of County Judge and Mrs. A.K. Ethel at a hospital in Salida. For nearly two months, the dear child laid in the hospital making as brave a fight for life as could be made, but Monday evening, February 8, 1932, at 10:30 o'clock the spark of life to which she had been clinging so tenaciously for so long went out and teh fight was lost.
Born in Eagle January 27, 1920, Roberta has spent her entire life here attending the local schools, taking her part in all activities of the community in which the younger girls participated. She was of a sunny, active, and lovable disposition, and her friends were legion. Roberta was the only child of Mr. and Mrs. Ethel, and her loss is extremely hard to them and the community feels strongly with them in their great bereavement. The body was brought to Eagle Tuesday night and funeral services in charge of Rev. A.R. Stockinger, were held from the family residence in Eagle Wednesday afternoon attended by a large concourse of friends of the loved girl, all business houses and schools being closed during the funeral hour. Interment was made in Cedar Hill cemetery at Gypsum directly following the services here.
