Rippey Family - Grace Hortense Rippey Triplett Death Record - page 10

This is my grandfather Shirley "Tripp" Triplett's first wife, Grace. I do not know when Grace started to have signs and or symptoms of an intestinal obstruction in early July 1924. I do not know if the family was in Madera or maybe visiting relatives in Southern California.

She entered Cottage Hospital in Burbank California on July 6th, 1924. She then endured a surgical procedure on the 7th July 1924. 

Grace passed away on 7 July 1924 at 5:30p.m. The cause of her death is labeled as "Acute Intestinal Obstruction", and that she suffered from this for 4 days.

Grace was buried in Rosedale Cemetery in Burbank California. The Cemetery is "very historic" in the Los Angeles area. The grass is overgrown and the office was not open on weekends. There are still burials going on there. Graves have been placed perpendicular between the rows of graves.

Brian and I walked much of the cemetery and could not find her burial site. 

The cemetery is in downtown Los Angeles - one of the worse parts of town. The traffic was horrible getting there and back to Santa Anna in January 2020! I think it's always bumper to bumper.....
