Wichita. (UP)—Gypsies throughout the country refrained from dancing, singing and fortune telling today in memory of their queen mother, who died last week in a roadside camp near Wichita.
Gypsy Queen Dies In Wichita
Lappy Marks, 70-year-old queen of the nation's five gypsy tribes, was buried in Maple Grove cemetery after Greek Orthodox funeral services.
Mournors, dressed in colorful floor length gowns and head dresses, nursed their babies, chanted, burned incense and roamed around the mortuary as Father George Cohlima conducted the rites.
Twice, the priest was forced to ask the mourners to refrain from talking before he continued the service.
There was no band, to the disappointment of the Marks family, who compromised on mortuary "canned" music, without singing.
Queen Lappy was the widow of Sperio Marks, known throughout the gypsy kingdom as King John. He died eight years ago. Steve Marks, one of four sons who has acted as king pro-tem, will be a candidate for election to full kingship at a gypsy convention here next June.
