According to Peter Smith, Rueben and Tillie were killed in a car accident. They pulled to the side of the road during a snowstorm and were hit. However, their obituaries confirm they died several years apart. Since Tillie died in January, I assume she was the victim of the accident.

Job Seeker Leaves Booze of Foreman
With jobs hard to get, people are apparently going to considerable lengths to get on a payroll. Several cases of attempts to bribe foremen in charge of city work have been reported to George D. Archibald, city engineer. In one instance a bottle of booze and a box of cigarets (sic) were left on the back steps of a foreman's home while he was downtown to attend a talkie. This foreman was R. Briscoe, in charge of semi-macadam roadway construction. Mr. Briscoe doesn't drink liquor in any form, and the quart bottle is still intact.
