She is survived by her son, James Kottwinkel, New York, City, N.Y.; two nieces, Helen Hoff, St. Louis, and Belinda Hawkins, St. Clair; one nephew, Lawrence Gaur, New Haven; one cousin, Margaret Fenton, Union; many great- and great-great-nieces and -nephews; other relatives and many friends.

Mrs. Stroud also had worked for a short time at Famous-Barr in the restaurant. She was in her 80s when she was employed as a cook for Trade Winds in Stanton.
Needless to say, she had remained an active lady as long as her health allowed and she enjoyed the fellowship of the many friends she made. Her son was her pride and joy and she cherished the time they shared.
A devoted and loving mother, aunt, great- and great-great-aunt, cousin and friend, she will be sadly missed and lovingly remembered by all who knew and loved her.
Funeral services were held Tuesday, Dec. 15, at Russell Colonial Funeral Home, St. Clair, with Father Bob Knight officiating.
