1929, John married Cora (Crites) Smith. Cora had lost her husband
Alvin in 1925. Cora lived in Flint. At first she and John lived in
Flint but eventually they moved to Clio. Cora died in 1940. John
lived an additional eleven years until April 25, 1951. He was buried
in Pine Run Cemetery in Vienna Township, Genesee County, Michigan next to his first wife Mary
Holland Daly.
PS. John Daly was a very good man. He
was the second husband to my Great Grandmother Cora. They were great
companions for each other in the years after all their children were
grown.
Rest in Peace, John.
Love, Jan
