Obituary - Greenfield, MO - June 1917
Calie Dona Bowles, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John T. Bowles, was born February 27, 1904. She took sick with brain trouble June 5th and died June 7, 1917 at the age of 13 yrs, three months and 11 days.
Dona was a bright and cheerful little girl. She made the home happy by pleasant words, nice music, and sweet singing. She was very fond of music and singing. The last favorite song she learned to play and sing was "Don't You Want to Go go the Happy Home on High?" She often spoke of her relatives and friends and how she loved them. She was vey careful if she was going to be away from home but a short time to bid the folks a sweet goodbye.
The Bible teaches us that "our life is even a vapour. It appeareth for a little time and vanisheth away." So was the life of little Dona. It appeared in the world but a few short years and brightened the home and without any marks of dishonor it vanished away to appear in the presence of God.
She leaves father, mother, a twin sister and a little brother, a grandmother and a host of other relatives and friends to mourn her departure. The funeral service was conducted at the Pennsboro Church Jue 8th by Rev. J. M. Vaughn and the remains laid to rest in the Pennsboro Cemetery.
