Mae Adeline Vannatter, 78, died June 15 in LaCrescenta, CA, following a illness and hospitalization. A former Houghton Lake resident, she had made her home with her daughter, the Rev.

A teacher, she was employed in the Gladwin rural schools, teaching for 11 years in Buckeye Township. On Oct. 16, 1920 she was united in marriage to Ernest Vannatter of Gladwin. They operated an automobile repair garage in Gladwin for many years and later a resort on Houghton Lake where they lived until Mr. Vannatter's death. In addition to the daughter, she is survived by two grandchildren, Stefan S. Weatherly, 13, and Jody Ann Perkins, 21, both living in California.
