They were among the pioneers of that district and lived there several years, later moving to Bentley where Mr. Blish engaged in the mercantile business. Mrs. Blish stood high ln the esteem of all who knew her, and many will regret her passing. Funeral services were held at the Community Hall on Friday, February 9, and were largely attended. Rev. Mr. Richardson, Calgary, officiated. Interment took place in the Bentley cemetery. Besides her husband, she leaves one son, Eugene Blish of Bentley, and five daughters Mrs. Finley Kelso, Mrs. Lonsdale and Miss Lily Blish, of Bentley; Mrs. Alice Harper of Vancouver, and Mrs. Ethel Davidson of Field, B.C.
