Obituary:
ROSE CURTIS ELLIS DIES
The death of Rose Curtis Ellis occurred recently at the home of her sister, Margaret Curtis Foggy, of Sawtell, Calif. Mrs. Foggy is now the last of the family of Uncle Jimmie Curtis, residents for many years of Olathe.
Mrs. Ellis was called from church to her sisdter's home because of an attack of severe hemorrhage of the lungs of Mrs. Foggy's son. Shortly after Mrs. Ellis reached her sister's home she lapsed into nconsciousness from a cerebral hemorrhage. She was removed to a hospital in the evening but died the next morning without recovering consciousness.
Friends in Olathe expected that she ould be brought home and buried in the Olathe cemetery but it seems it was the desire that she be buried in California so the body rests in Woodbine cemetery near Santa Monica only a block from the Pacific ocean.
Rose Curtis Ellis owned a home in Satell that she could be near her sister, Mrs. Foggy. She had been a teacher in the Venice schools for a number of years before going to California. The Curtis family were of English origin and were all people of fine ideals of citizenship. Mrs. Ellis was a woman of comfortable means and her death in California when she was so well prepared to enjoy the fruits of an active life, is a source of regret to all who knew this most estimable woman.
