      (Note: This version of her obituary, printed in the Utica Daily Press of March 30 1960, is slightly different from the one appearing in the Oneonta Star of Mar 31 1960, and is quoted here in its entirety.) "Mrs. Mary Brown Burdick, 90, of the Home for the Aged 1657 Sunset Ave., mother of Andrew J. Burdick, former superintendent of Utica schools, died yesterday in the home after a long illness.
      She was born July 29, 1869, in Otego, daughter of Andrew J. and Malvina Hyatt Brown and attended high school in Morris. She also attended the teacher’s training class in Morris. Mrs. Burdick taught school for a short time in District 18 in Otego.
      She was married to Proctor L. Burdick in West Oneonta. He died July 11, 1938.
      Mrs. Burdick was a member of the First Christian Church of Otego.
      The family lived on a farm in Otego until 1922, when Mr. Burdick retired and moved to Oneonta. In 1931, the couple came to the Utica area and had since lived here.
      Besides her son, she leaves a granddaughter, Mrs. William H. Becker, Utica; three great-grandsons. A grandson, First Lt. Raymond A. Burdick, was killed in the Philippines during World War 2.
      The funeral will be at 2 tomorrow from the Lankton, Townsend & Cronk Funeral Home, 12 Steuben Pk, with the Rev. William C. Wood, pastor of Central Methodish Church, officiating. Burial will be in Evergreen Cemetery, Otego, later in the Spring."
