Berkshire, Lula Berkshire nee Walter

Spirit of Democracy, Woodsfield, Ohio, dated, March 13, 1929

An illness of but a week’s duration terminated in the death of Mrs. Lula Walter Berkshire, aged 37 years, wife of the late J.R. Berkshire. Mrs. Berkshire died at her home, 376 Daisy street, Mansfield, Friday night, February 22, at 9:30 o’clock.

Mrs. Berkshire was born in Sardis, Ohio, August 21, 1891, but had been a resident of Mansfield for a number of years. Her husband, the late John Roy Berkshire, well known telegraph operator of the Pennsylvania Railroad, preceded her in death February 14th.

The ordeal occasioned by the sudden death of her husband, coupled with the frailty of her health for the past few years, proved to heavy a burden for her to carry and she surrendered her soul to Him who gave it.

Mrs. Berkshire was confirmed in the Evangelical faith in April 1906 and lived a consistent, faithful life. Her passing in the maturity of young womanhood is a great loss to her family and friends.

The deceased is survived by her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Jacob Walter of Sardis; four brothers; Harry Walter of Hannibal; F.E. Walter of Warwood, W.Va.; Jacob and Hugh Walter, both of Woodsfield; and three sisters; Mrs. H.A. Luedy of Seville, Ohio; Mrs. Jerome Forrest and Miss Daisy Walter, both of Sardis.

Funeral services were held from the Jones Funeral Home, Monday morning at 9:00 0’clock. Rev. Leroy J. Hopper of the First U.B. Church conducting the services. Burial was made in the Marion Cemetery.

Leaves have their time to fall

And wither at the north winds’ breath;

These have their seasons all,

But thou, thou hast all seasons for thine own, O death!
