She died from a stroke while she was getting dressed to attend a Mother & Daughter Banquet at Riverside Church. Her granddaughter, Arleen Lois Smith had talked to her five minutes before she found her dead - sitting in her rocking chair in her bedroom with her shoes neatly placed before her on the floor.
She was terribly deaf in her later years and wore a hearing aid. She was a gentle, soft spoken, deeply religious woman whom everyone liked very much. She always had a smile on her face., begr. 1948 te Knollwood Cemetery, Cleveland, Cuyahoga County, Ohio, dochter van David sr. (vanDame) van Damme en Elisabeth Maria (Lizzie/Libbie) Ets
