Olive May COFFMAN Breithling died Saturday, 4/29/00. The obit from "The
Daily Gazette" of Schenectady, NY came today. Not all of the information
is correct - according to what I submitted to the funeral home, but the
corrections are noted afterwards.

obit
"Olive May Breitlhling
SCHENECTADY - Mrs. OIive May
Coffman Breithling, 91, of DeGraff
Street, formerly of Bell Road in East
Galway, died Sunday at Ellis Hospital
after a long illness.
Born in Piqua, Ohio, Mrs. Breithling worked as a masseuse in the Saratoga
Baths, retiring in 1974.
She was a member of Galway Senior Citizens
Mrs. Breithling was the widow of Ivar Breithling, who died in 172
She is survived by two sisters, Bessie Faith COFFMAN Jones of Yuma, Ariz.,
and Betty Jo COFFMAN Stone of Louise, Miss.
A graveside service will be held at 11 am. this morning a~ East Ga lWay
Cemetery.
Burial will be in East Galway Cernetery.
There are no calling hours.
Memorial contributions may be
made to the Hospice of Schenectady,
1411 Union St., Schenectady, NY
12308
Arrangements are by Richard J. Ryan Funeral Home, Sacandaga Rod, Galway
Village."

Note that the actual date of death was Saturday, not Sunday as noted. The
Saratoga Baths were/are actually controlled by the State of New York and
that retirees are then retrired from NYS.

Although I submitted her dead direct relatives, the paper ignored
them. Her father was Aaron Coffman of Ft. Larmie, OH, her mother was
Bessie Cloe Foster of Piqua and she had three sisters who preceded her in
death: Mildred Fern Coffman, b. September 15, 1912, d April 19, 1979;
Minnie Bell Coffman, b October 02, 1917, d October 1982; Bonney Lucille
Coffman, b October 26, 1920, d February 25, 1985.

Any questions, comments, please ask me,

May God be with us all.
