     Mrs. Agnes M. (Ciprich) Siskovich, 89, a resident of North Washington Street, Wilkes-Barre, passed into Eternal Life Saturday morning surrounded by her family in the comfort of her daughter's home following a recent illness.

     Born April 14, 1930 in Wilkes-Barre, she was the last surviving child of the late Paul and Catherine (Budzak) Ciprich.  Educated locally, Mrs. Siskovich was a member of the 1948 graduating class of the former Plains High School.
