The Byron Express
August 9, 1895
Classification: Obituary
The funeral of Mrs. William Gorman at the Masonic Hall, Wednesday was one of the sadest in the history of Byron. About two weeks since Mrs. Gorman gave birth to a child and was apparently getting along finely up to last week when she began growing rapidly worse and despite the best medical skill and all that willing hands and loving hearts could do, she quietly passed away at eight o'clock Tuesday evening.
Mrs. Gorman was the daughter of Moses Leary, one of the old settlers of this township, and her circle of friends was very large. She was a faithful and loving wife and mother, a kind neighbor and true friend. She was an active member of the Catholic church and to her efforts largely may be accredited the new church in Byron.
She leaves a kind husband and five children, the oldest about ten years old, beside many other relatives. She will be missed in the home circle, in the church where she has ever been an energetic worker and in the neighborhood where her many acts of kindness have been most felt. The funeral services were conducted by Father McCann and the remains were laid to rest in the cemetery at Seward whither they were followed by a large concourse of those desiring to pay a last tribute to the memory of their departed friend and neighbor.
