Courtenay Gazette, Aug 25, 1910 Sunday evening Dr. Shepard was called to the home of Peter Falk, who lives on the late Chas. E. Raney farm. Upon the doctor's arrival he found Mrs. Falk in a bad condition of health. Organic heart disease accompanied by hemorrhages had brought about such condition that her life was despaired of. Returning to Courtenay he prescribed treatment but before the medicine could reach her she had expired, leaving her young husband grief stricken to mourn her loss. Helen Gurski was born in 1882 and was 28 years of age at her demise. She was married to Peter Falk on January 11th, 1910, and her sudden death is a great blow to the bereaved husband, their happy union having so early been severed by the grim reaper of death. Her body was place in its last resting place in the catholic cemetery, burial being held on Tuesday forenoon. The Gazette joins with the many friend of the deceased in extending sincere sympathy with the bereaved families in their time of sorrow. |
