Otis Frank Crippens Family info
Notice the Peter Brandenberry and Frank Crippens families
as neighbors in Maple Precinct in 1910
Otis's Mother
CRIPPEN, Hester (d. Nov 2, 1925)
After a long illness Mrs. Hester Crippen, aged 72 years, passed away at her home here on Monday morning, Nov. 2. Besides her husband, Frank Crippen, she leaves to mourn her passing from the family circle one daughter, Mrs. Peter Brandenberry of Forks, and two sons, Ira and Otis Crippen, of Burlington; also several grandchildren and a sister, Mrs. George Hueston of Nooksack. The remains were taken to the Gillies Funeral Home at Sumas, where the funeral occurred on Wednesday afternoon and interment took place in the Sumas cemetery. In her early womanhood Mrs. Crippen was a teacher, and all through her life until failing health prevented she took an active part in church and Sunday school affairs and never lost interest in the Women's Christian Temperance Union, in which she was an ardent worker for many years. A long resident in Maple Falls endeared her to a host of friends who will miss her and much sympathy is extended to the bereaved family in their sorrow.
