!Obituary: [The Burlingame Enterprise, 27 Jun 1918] -- David Easton --
!P: A death greatly to be deplored is that of David Easton, a man who had lived in this community with his family since coming here from Scotland about seven years ago. Mr. Easton was a miner by trade, a hard-working, respectable citizen, but for the past two or three years he had been handicapped in his efforts to care for his family because of a stubborn case of bloodpoisoning in his hand. For the past six weeks he had been ill with heart trouble and his death occured last Thursday evening at nine o'clock. Mr. Easton was born in Stirlingshire, Scotland in 1869. He was married to Miss Isabel Ferguson in 1893. Mrs. Easton is a sister of Mrs. Neal Hotchkiss of this city. Mr. Easton preceded his family to America, coming to Canada in January, 1910, and to Burlingame in November of the same year. Mrs. Easton and his family joined him in March, 1911. The widow and nine children survive Elizabeth, Jeanette and Isabelle, who have been employeed in Kansas City; the elder son George, who enlisted in the coast artillery last month and is stationed at Camp Jackson, C.C.; also David, Christina, Jean, Tommy, and the baby Alexander. The soldier son had been granted a leave, and was home at the time of his father's death and funeral. Funeral services were held in the home in South Park Saturday afternoon at 1:30 o'clock, conducted by Rev. Davis. A ladies quartette, comprised of Mesfames Miner, Davis, Beverly and Pringle, furnished beautiful and appropriate music. --
!P: -- CARD OF THANKS. -- We feel deeply grateful to the many kind friends for their expressions of love and sympathy during the long illness, and at the death of our husband and father. -- Mrs. Easton and Children. --
