Mary E. Leist, daughter of the late John C. Leist and Rebecca Ann Foncannon, died at the home of her granddaughter in Pasadena, Calif. Dec. 17, at the age of 92 years, 11 months and 20 days.

Her husband, Jacob Leist, preceded her in death 21 years ago.

She leaves, besides the above-named daughter, one granddaughter and three great-granddaughters, all of California, and other relatives and friends here in Ohio.

Services were held Wednesday afternoon from the Walter funeral home with Rev. David L Eichar officiating.
