Unfortunate occurrences in her memories included the raging fire of April, 1926, when much of the Justen block On Main street, was destroyed ' "" She was the: oldest living charts er member, who with her husband helped to organize the McHenry State Bank in 1906. , Even in recent years, she had maintained her interest in civic and""national affairs and not long ago asked to be taken to the polls to vote in an important election! She is survived by three children, Peter M. Justen of McHenry, Mrs. Leona Marum and Miss Verena C. Justen pf Chicago; five grandchildren and three greatgrandchildren.
