Mrs. Rose KILLEN, aged 82, for many years a resident of Rochester, died in the Ball Memorial Hospital in Muncie at 8 o'clock Sunday evening. Death was due to injuries which she received in a fall five months ago while she was visiting in the home of her daughter, Mrs. Floyd Mattice in Indianapolis. In the fall, Mrs. Killen suffered fracture of a hip.
The deceased was born on a farm near Cicero, Ind., on September 25, 1853. She was married to the late Harry KILLEN in a ceremony which was performed in Noblesville in 1874. A few years after their marriage, Mr. and Mrs. Killen moved to this city where Mr. Killen engaged in the ice and coal business and also operated a grocery.
The Killen family home was at the corner of Madison and Tenth Streets. Mr. Killen passed away twenty-five years ago, since which time Mrs. Killen has been living with her children. The deceased was a devout member of the First Presbyterian Church of this city, having affiliated with the church when she came to Rochester to make her residence.
Survivors are two daughters, Mrs. Floyd MATTICE and Mrs. Emma Louise WEDMORE, Muncie; a son, G. Byron KILLEN, Evanston, Ill.; six grandchildren, Miss Rose BOOTS, New York, Miss Ruth BOOTS, Baltimore, Md., Mrs. Mildred BOOTS YOUMAN, Colorado Springs, Colo., Miss Helen MATTICE, Indianapolis, Miss Betty Rose KILLEN, Evanston, Ill., and Kenneth WEDMORE, Muncie. A daughter, Kathryn [KILLEN] and son, Fred [KILLEN] preceded their mother in death.
