ANOTHER DEAR COMPANION HAS SOUGHT ETERNAL REST.
Minnie Goldsberry was born near Weeping Water, Nebraska November 13, 1874 and died at Pawnee hospital January 26, 1928 at the age of 53 years, 2 months and 13 days.
At the age of four years she moved with her parents to Richardson county making their home at Easily Creek. Receiving her education at Middleburg school, attending the E. A. church at Four Mile, at this place she grew into womanhood.
She was united i marriage to Fred Hofmann at Pawnee City, Nebraska April 10, 1893. They lived near Humboldt for one year. From there they moved to their present home. To this happy union were born four children, Loree of Omaha, Leonard, Cleo and Leah of DuBois.
Besides the husband and four children she leaves to mourn five brothers and two sisters, Mrs. William Penn of Sabetha, Mrs. F. W. Houser of Gering, Neb., Albert Goldsberry of Memphis, Tenn., Walter of Jewell, Kansas, Charles and Fred of Turlock, Calif., and Claude of Lebanon, Kansas.
Her father and mother, also two sisters, Ida and Neva were carried to their eternal home from which none ever depart, but forever beckon us to meet them in the spirit world to which she has been called.
Today we scatter flowers of friendship and honor beside her and all thru her pathway of life she strew the wonderful blossoms of a loving ad charitable disposition. Always had a ready hand toward the helping of her husband i all his work. The name mother fitted her i every way always loving ad devoted. One of her greatest joys was that of caring for her children. Her every soul ambition was to promote their education and their welfare.
The troubles of her life she gently but firmly laid aside in deepest recesses of her heart, and drawing the curtain of love and hope before them she turned to the sorrows and happiness of others.
She was a very devoted daughter to father ad mother. Her mother living with her the greatest part of her days after her husbands death.
Faithful in the obligations of life to relatives, friends and neighbors, we commend her beautiful life to the attention of those she left behind. Looking into the past life we seen wonderful light that is reflected in lives of everyone who knew her and will forever remain a stimulation of orderly living to each of us the coming years.
As we stand beside the tomb whose mysterious shadows veil the destiny of man, and whose dim portals have taken her spirit beyond the reach of earthly tribulation, we bow in silence to the laws of the universe and turn to our God who will help us to bear this great sorrow and in this strength and hope we will take up the work her tired hands have laid down and we shall reflect and multiply the many graces of her lovable life. Her passing lays a obligation on each of us that remain to equal the gracious modesty and splendid kindness of work.
The funeral service was held Sunday afternoon at 3:00 at the United Brethren church in DuBois conducted by Rev. O. J. Kueger, after which the body was laid to rest in the DuBois Cemetery.
