Hattie Bond Hurley was born July 23, 1877, in Garwin, Iowa, and fell into eternal sleep, October 1, 1932, in Riverside, Calif.
Most of her childhood was spent in Iowa and western Kansas with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Preston Bond, of Nortonville, Kan. She lived here and at Topeka until about six years ago, when she removed to Riverside with her husband and son.
She was united in marriage to Birt Hurley, November 20, 1900, at Pardee, Kan., by Rev. George W. Hills. To this union were born two children, Osman B. and Ernest Clair, both of whom died in infancy.
There remain to mourn her going, her husband, Birt Hurley, and an adopted son, Robert; two brothers, Ed and Bert Bond of Nortonville, Kan.; two sisters, Rose Brandon of Perry, Kan., and Addie Brown of Riverside; an uncle, C. C. Babcock; an aunt, Mrs. Laura Babcock and family, also of Riverside, and a host of relatives and friends.
This passing hour comes to each one of us who are permitted to enjoy life upon this earth. If we are prepared to go to our heavenly reward we should have no fear. I believe my mother has been awarded that glorious crown.
I take this privilege to pay her a tribute of gratitude. She has made a perfect home, with ideal friendship between herself and her family and fellow creatures.
She and father took me when I was a helpless orphan, and have given me the best they had, which could not have been duplicated even by my own family, had they been living.
My desire is to live in such a way that I may again meet her in that golden city of the heavenly Father; and that she may be as happy again with her family there as she was here.
