Obituary
Ettie Nora Luce, daughter of Horace and Lucinda Luce, was born in Spring Valley, Minn., on May 19, 1870. She passed away October 18, 1942, at Doland, South Dakota, at the age of 72 years and five months. She was the third child of a family of eleven children. She came to South Dakota in the fall of 1880, arriving by train at Ashton and proceeding by wagon to a farm on the river near Ashton. Her parents, true pioneers, moved the next spring to their own claim six miles north of Doland. She was married July 20, 1887, to William H. Tanner. To this union were born seven children, three of whom preceded her in death.
Mrs. Tanner made her home in Doland for Sixty-two years. Her husband preceded her in death fifteen years ago and for the past twelve years she has made her home with her daughter, Lyla and family. Her chief interests were her grandchildren and their activities. She was a member of the Methodist church and Ladies Aid.
She was beloved by all for her kindness, generosity and willingness to help others. Her friends are found with both young and old. Her happy disposition spread sunshine to those around her.
Mrs. Tanner had been in poor health for several years and two months ago suffered a fractured hip. In spite of all possible she never recovered from the shock.
She is survived by two sons, Robert, of Lodi, Wisconsin, and Leland who is serving in the coast artillery of the U.S. Army, somewhere in Alaska, and who was unable to be here for the funeral; two daughters, Cora Hoffman and Lyda Calver, both of Doland; also seven grandchildren and one great-grandchild; three brothers, Charles, of Central City, Nebraska; Walter of Brentford and Fred of Aberdeen; three sisters, Clara Frink of Ashton, Mattie Jordon of Frankfort and Ethel Stanley of Brentford.
