Iva's Death cert. lists her father's name as Hackerman. It also lists her mother's maiden name as Terry.
Their suggestion:
Her mother's correct name is Mary Frances Terry Ackerman Glasscock.
Iva died during the 1918 flu pandemic.
Iva's birth date on her death certificate is March 12, 1894, which differs a bit from what is on the headstone.

IVA ALICE HARRAH
Iva Alice Ackerman was born in Sherman county Kansas, March 11, 1895. In April 1914 she was buried with her Lord in baptism by Brother Ralph Yadon. She was married to Earl Harrah, August 26, 1914. Iva's frail constitution could not withstand an attack of influenza, which afterwards developed into pneumonia, and she passed away October 16, 1918, being 23 years, 7 months, and 5 days old. She leaves a devoted husband, father, mother, one sister, five brothers and many other relatives to mourn her loss. Sister Iva was always cheerful, although a sufferer for many years. Lord's day always found her around the Lord's table unless hindered. We believe she died in the living faith. Some day we will meet her without aches and pains, if we are faithful. She has left her pains here. Her life was darkened by ill health. Our loss is Heaven's gain. Let us so live that when the summons comes for us to join that innumerable host that we like she will be prepared.
