| Notes | ||||||
|
Ida and her husband, Alexander Posson, lived in Ragen, Nebraska. They moved there in 1938 and owned the Hotel Posson. Obituary for Ida Jane Goodfellow Posson: Ida Jane Goodfellow Posson passed away at the Memorial Hospital at Seward, Nebraska, July 14, 1956, age 83 years, 3 months and 3 days. She was born near Papineau, Illinois on April the 11th, 1873. On March the 23rd, 1892, she was united in marriage at Kankakee, Illinois to Alexander Charles Posson. To this union were born five children, three daughters and two sons. The greater part of her life has been spent in Nebraska, having moved to Ulysses in 1938. She united with the Methodist Church when quite a young woman and remained a true and faithful member until the hour when her Lord called her. To mourn her departure, she leaves her five children: Ruby M. Rowell of Casper, Wyoming Edna J. Henninger of Denver, Colorado Edward R. Posson of Omaha, Nebraska Merle S. Posson of Kansas City, Missouri Wilma G. Young of Denver, Colorado Also three grandchildren, five great-grandchildren, nieces and nephews and a host of sorrowing friends. We'll mourn for the death of a woman good and true in every capacity, in which she was tried and found to be worthy. There comes a time to us all when we must say farewell as we look for the last time into the faces of those who are near and dear to us. Human life is a mystery and it ends in the other mystery, which we call death. |
