Isabella M. Steck, daughter of Amos Steck, second mayor of Denver, died Saturday (8/22/1951) morning in the Old Ladies Home, 4115 W. 38th ave., where she lived 16 years. She was 96.
Born Jan. 26, 1855, in Watertown, Wis., she came to Denver with her mother in 1860. Her father, Judge Amos Steck, had come to Colorado in 1859. He was Denver's first postal agent, its second mayor, and was state senator for two terms at the start of the century. He died in 1908. Steck School, E. Fourth ave., and Ash st., was named for him.
Miss Steck worked for some years at the Colorado State Law Library. She was an honorary member of the Pioneer Men and Women of Colorado and of the territorial Daughters of Colorado. Her home was the first house on Curtis st. A letter written by her mother in 1860, tells of "walking across the prairie" from town to the Curtis St. home.
She is survived by two nieces, Mrs. Anne Alaimo of Englewood, and Mrs. Sarah Mundhenk of Denver; one nephew, Amos Steck of Denver, and a brother, Harry F. Steck of Los Angeles.
