Funeral services for Mrs. Leona Bartsch of the Town of York were held Monday from the Zion Lutheran church in Granton, Rev. Arthur Laesch, officiating. Mrs. Bartsch died Jan. 25 at the Neillsville Hospital where she was taken a few days before.

Mrs. Bartsch, nee Leona Arndt, was born at Sheboygan, August 9, 1900 and came to Clark County with her parents in 1914.

A daughter, Velda Lorraine, preceded her mother in death.

Mrs. Bartsch, who was a devoted member of the Lutheran Church, was beloved by all who knew her and her untimely passing is mourned by the entire community in which she lived.
