Mrs. James Melziva, 73, died November 2, at the Havenet Home in Owen, where she and her husband had rooms.

Her body lay in state at the Haeper and Kraut Funeral home from Thursday evening. Funeral services were held Saturday morning from Holy Rosary Church, Owen, with the Rev. Father H. L. Crubel officiating.  Burial was made in Riverside Cemetery, Withee.
