Funeral services were held Monday afternoon for Mrs. Lulu V. Travis, a pioneer of this community since before 1900, who died Friday morning at the Prosser Memorial hospital after an illness of 16 months.
Lulu Montrose was born at Carson City, Nevada, June 18, 1872, and attended school in Nevada and California. She was married to Warren C. Travis at Lundy, Calif., September 23, 1891. They came to Washington where Mr. Travis' parents and brothers resided and lived for a time at Kennewick. Returning to California where Mr. Travis worked in the mines, they came back to homestead in Horse
Heaven in 1900. They had lived here ever since until during the war where they moved to Prosser and made their home on Kinney Way.
Mrs. Travis was very fond of flowers and of music. She acted as superintendent at the early Sunday schools held in the District schoolhouse and at the Hall, beside serving as organist. At the early Literaries Mr. and Mrs. Travis and their daughter Naomi, often sang as a trio. A charter member of the Grange and the 4-H club of Horse Heaven, she attended faithfully unless illness prevented, even after moving to Prosser.
Four children and her husband preceded her in death.
Funeral services were held at the Methodist church with Rev. Chester Morgan officiating. Special music was by Mrs. Morgan, who sang two solos, "Abide with Me" and "The Lord's Prayer."
Pall bearers were members of the old pioneer Horse Heaven families. They were Horace Dimmick, Frank Richman, Loren Lape, Dennis Henson, Walter Crump, and Chester Anderson.
Suvivors are a daughter, Mrs. John Tomaske, two sons, Nat of Santa Ana and Rodney of Prosser, and six grandchildren; four sisters and two brothers, all of California.
Here for the funeral were Mr. and Mrs. Earl Montrose of Levining, Calif., and Nat Travis of Santa Ana.
