Bernard Richard Hubby passed away at the Veteran's Hospital in Des Moines, Iowa on October 17, 1972 at 1:40 pm. He was 49 years old.
Bernard was the son of Walter Wesley Hubby and Daisy Taylor. He grew up in the Ogden, Boone County area. He proudly served in WWII and the Korean War. He had 4 brothers, one who preceded him in death, Marvin, Floyd & Everett.
On June 1, 1950, he married Darlene Louise Cave. They would bring 10 bundles of joy into world. They would make their home in rural Madrid Iowa, near the Hubby Bridge, at the family homestead once owned by his grandfather, George Hubby. Later, they would relocate to Redfield and that would become home. Bernard started work at a young age. He worked in the coal mines with his father in his teenage years then farming until he answered his country's call to service and joined the Army. At the time of his death, he worked at the Redfield brickyard.
He loved to fish, mushroom hunt, dance, and attend auctions. He had a green thumb that produced bountiful gardens and beautiful petunia and Zenia beds. Bernard would be what today is described as a master craftsman. Bernard passed away 11 days after his mom, Daisy. He leaves his wife Darlene, and 9 children, Mark, Rick, Bob, Diana, Susan, Keith, Sandy, Craig and David to mourn his passing.
One son, Terry James Hubby precedes him in death, along with his parents Walter & Daisy.
