Beloved South Montrose Woman Dies on Sunday

Mrs. Guy Allen, 49, Passes Away After Long Illness.  Funeral Yesterday.

  Mrs. Guy Allen died in her home in South Montrose on Sunday afternoon,
April 7, 1935, at 2:30 o'clock.  Mrs. Allen had been in ill health for over
a year, following an operation which failed to greatly prolong her life,
but fortunately she had been able to be about her home until a short time
prior to her death.
  The deceased was a very fine type of womanhood and had numberless friends in
the community and where ever she was known.  A delightful personality, coupled
with rare gifts of mind and heart, endeared her to her family and friends.
She will be sadly missed.  For many years she was actively interested in
local civic and social affairs, and was a member of Susquehanna Grange,
South Montrose.
  Before her marriage her name was Lulu Stevens, a daughter of John and Helen
(Wilcox) Stevens.  She was born in Auburn township, this county, Sept. 29,
1885.  Besides her husband, she is survived by one daughter, Miss Margaret
Allen, bookkeeper in the Montrose office of the Commonwealth Telephone Co.;
two sisters, Mrs. Faye Swackhammer, of Binghamton, and Mrs. Byron Tewksbury,
Dalton, Pa., and the following brothers:  Amasa Stevens, Guernsey, Wyoming;
Dana Stevens, Rock Falls, Ill.; Perry Stevens, of Lake Winola; Arthur and
Bertie Stevens, Ontario, N. Y.; Leo Stevens, Montrose, and Homer A. Stevens,
New Milford.
  The funeral was largely attended yesterday afternoon at 2 o'clock, her
pastor, the Rev. Roy H. Beane, of Springville, officiating.  The floral
tributes were especially large and beautiful.  Interment was in South Montrose
cemetery, the casket bearers, six nephews, being Elmer Tewksbury, Ralph,
Lloyd, Milton, Leon and Raymond Stevens.  B. H. Randall was funeral director.
