Many will remember the late Mrs. Bolivar as a kind neighbour and friend, always ready to render help where needed.
At an early age, she united with the Lutheran Church which she attended as long as health permitted.
Funeral services were held on Friday afternoon at her late residence and at St. Luke's Lutheran Church by her pastor, Rev. L.L. Batdorf, who after reading favourite passages of scripture, brought a comforting and helpful message. The hymn,"Good Night and Good Morning" was rendered by Mr. and Mrs. Wallace Hebb at the house; "Asleep in Jesus" and "How Great Thou Art" at the church by the choir.
