Obit For Jean L. (Legg) Foster
Headline MRS. J. S FOSTER PASSES AWAY AT ROGERS HOSPITAL MONDAY
Text - Outline The many relatives and friends of Mrs. F. S. Foster, an old and highly respected citizen of Seligman, will be grieved to learn of her death which occurred at a Rogers, Ark., hospital Monday evening, following an operation for removal of a tumor.

Mrs. Foster had been in declining health for sometime and the first day following the operation it was thought she would survive but a change for the worse soon came and she passed on in a few hours.

She was the wife of Dr. Foster, a pioneer and honorable physician and surgeon of Seligman and was prominent in civil and church work in that community. She was a prominent Rebekah and had served as District Deputy President. Mrs. Foster was a woman that was greatly loved by all who knew her, and during the long number of years that she had resided in the community, she had done much to assist in relieving suffering humanity. She is survived by her grief stricken husband and one son who resided in Kansas City.

Impressive funeral services were conducted at Seligman Wednesday afternoon and the funeral was one of the largest held in that section for many years. A mixed quartet from Cassville furnished music. Interment was made in the Seligman cemetery. The Democrat joins the many friends of Dr. Foster in extending sincere sympathy in his sad hour of bereavement over the loss of this excellent, kind and loving wife and citizen.
