GOOD WOMAN IS CALLED

MRS. A. J. RAYMOND PASSES AWAY AFTER LONG ILLNESS


Wauconda Leader: Died, at the family home in Volo, Friday, the twelfth of March, 1915, Mrs. A. J. Raymond, aged 64 years, 8 months and 14 days.

Lovina Cook was born on the old Cook homestead near Wauconda on June 28, 1850, and was the youngest, save one, of a large family of children of Andrew and Mary Oaks-Cook, pioneers in this township. She grew to womanhood here, enjoying the meager opportunities of the time; and on December 31, 1875, was united in marriage with Andrew J. Raymond, well known farmer, creamery man and politician of western Lake county.

They lived on a large farm adjoining the village of Volo for many years, and later in life retired to a comfortable home in that village.

Mrs. Raymond's life was a busy one, her home and its duties being her constant care.

Two children, married and in homes of their own, survive with their father to feel the loss irreparable.

The eldest daughter is Mrs. Louis Lusk and is the mother of three children; and the other daughter, Helen, is Mrs. Charles Kapple and they have one child, thus there are four grandchildren who are too young to know much of the loss of their grandmother.

Mrs. Raymond was ever a good mother and good neighbor, having had many good friends who encouraged and comforted her during the months of her last illness.

One brother, Homer Cook, of Waukegan, and two sisters, Mrs.Mary Foster, who is well advanced in years, and a resident of Minnesota, and Mrs. Lucy Clough of this village, are all that are left of a family of thirteen children of which she was a member.

Her husband is, by her death, left quite along but has abundant means to live where and how he may choose. The funeral was held at the home wherein she had dwelt and where she died, on Sunday afternoon, March the fourteenth, and was attended by a large gathering of old neighbors, friends and relatives, Rev. William delivering the funeral address, and interment was made in the Volo cemetery.
