    Translation: With Rev. A. Briedis officiating, Emma Sirlaka, who died on 9 October aged 85, was buried on 13 October in the Latvian section of York Cemetery. She had lived alternately in the USA, where two daughters survive with their families, and, in recent years, in Toronto with her daughter Mirdza Gailīte and son-in-law, the mathematics teacher Fricis Gailītis, who died last September. Within a few years Emma Sirlaka underwent several serious operations, losing first one leg and, two years ago, the other to amputation.

    Aged 85, so born about 1885. She spent her old age alternately in the USA, where two of her daughters lived with their families, and (latterly) in Toronto with her daughter Mirdza Gailīte and son-in-law Fricis Gailītis, a mathematics teacher who died in September 1969. She had had both legs amputated over the preceding years.
