Funeral services were held Monday morning in Woodburn for Mrs. Gladys Ione Cripps, 57, wife of Oscar W. Cripps of 473 South Locust street, and a resident of Canby since 1944. Interment was in the Hubbard cemetery beside her brother, the late Charles Porter, and sister, Mrs. Minnie Ferguson, both former Broadacres residents.

Mrs. Cripps died Wednesday evening, Dec. 11, in Good Samaritan hospital, Portland, where she had undergone surgery two days before. She had been hospitalized since Thanksgiving day, following a collapse at her home Nov. 23.

Surviving are her widower, to whom she was married in 1934 in Denver, Colo.; a brother, Earl Porter in Lane, Kansas, and four sisters, Mrs. Jennie McCoy and Mrs. Pearl McCulley of Hubbard, Mrs. Velma Rognan of Spokane, Wash., and Mrs. Mertie Ellis of High Point, Mo.

She also leaves three children by a previous marriage, Mrs. Don (Clara) Tobin of Longmont, Colo., Joyce and Larry Hill in Rock Springs, Wyo. A niece, Mrs. Charles Bradley (Fern Porter), now of Fort Dodge, Iowa, lived with Mr. and Mrs. Cripps for three years before graduating from Canby high school. She also leaves three stepchildren, Glenn Cripps of Denver, Earl of San Diego and Ruby of Los Angeles.

With her husband, a plasterer by trade, she came to Oregon 13 years ago from the vicinity of Fort Scott, Kansas, where they had farmed for 10 years after their marriage. She was born Nov. 15, 1900, in Cole Camp, Mo., and attended school there, moving to Colorado as a young woman. She was a member of the Evangelical United Brethren church.

Officiating at her funeral in the Ringo-Cornwell chapel was the Rev. Paul E. Boomer of Woodburn's Bible Baptist church. Mrs. Don Burlingham was soloist and Mrs. J. M. Ringo was at the organ.
