Name Reeta Velma Meador Birth 1898 Afton, Ottawa, OK Gender Female Death 15 Aug1944 Tulsa, Tulsa, OK - For whatever reason, Reeta's headstone inscription incorrectly gives her death year as 1945. All of the newspaper accounts of her death clearly state her death as 1944 as does her interment record. Hopefully, her death certificate will become available. Additionally, it is hoped that proof of her complete (M/D/Y) birth date will surface.
Cause of death: "Stenosis - Pul Tuberculosis" [sic] per her interment record.
