On 13 Jan 1934, 49 year old, Mrs. Charlotte M Marsch was out and about on the streets of Portland when she was struck by a car and died at Good Samaritan Hospital soon thereafter. Upon hearing of her friend's death 60 year old Maggie McNeel went out to buy a new dress to wear for her friend's upcoming funeral when she too was struck by a car and died at Good Samaritan Hospital from injuries sustained. Both ladies' funerals were held at Holman & Lutz on 16 Jan 1934 with burials at the Rose City Cemetery. Maggie was a single woman, while Charlotte was married and worked as a garment inspector at Jantzen Knitting Mills.
Their death certificates were inspected on 2 November 2012 at the Oregon State Archives in Salem.
