Poetic Obituaries: [H. Adelaide Schunk] did pastel pet portraits

and wrote poetry. She was dubbed the "Poet Laureate" by a Vincent Methodist member, she wrote 200 poems. At age 75 the town took her home. Petitions, signed and sent were in vain. The Terrace became a large parking lot by the utilization of Eminent Domain, as Schunk wrote in "My Last Poem."

from NorthJersey.com: H. Adelaide Schunk, 88
