In Memoriam - Eloise Ege Vaughan:
Former students of‚ Grand Island College, who were in attendance at that institution during the years of 1907-11, will remember Eoise Ege, and will grieve to hear of her untimely death on January 9, 1929.
Always so happy and jolly, so generous and kind toward everyone, she endeared herself to a large circle of friends in those days; for she was ever a popular and much loved student. Conscientious and enthusiastic in her school work, and possessing a charming personality, she left her impression upon all who came in contact with her.
She was born at Muscatine, Ia., April 19, 1889, to William Marshall Ege and Loie Ann Davis, and came to Grand Island from the Rosebud Indian reservation where her family then lived. She graduated from Grand lsland College in 1911, and during the following year was a member of the college faculty. In 1912 she married Russel J. Vaughan of Guide Rock, Nebraska. Soon afterwards Mr. and Mrs. Vaughan entered the United States Indian Service, and her death occurred at Santa Fe, New Mexico, where her husband is now employed in the Indian school at that place.
During her long illness (tuberculosis) of nearly three years, her sister Harriet, also a graduate of Grand Island College, and now a trained nurse, was constantly with her and labored unceasingly in a futile attempt to restore her again to health and strength...
Mrs. Vaughan's interest in flowers and birds and her fondness for reading and embroidery entertained her during the long period of her illness. Never seeking sympathy, but always awake to the interests of the family, neighbors and friends, she leaves only pleasant memories behind her.
During these eighteen years since our graduations, memory has often brought back a picture of the dark-eyed, dark-haired, merry-hearted girl whom I knew so well and loved so much in those days. How sad it seems that such a beautiful life should be cut off right in the midst of its usefulness; and our sympathies go out to each member of the large family circle whose hearts have been saddened by her going; but especially to him who, just at the noontime of life's short day, has been bereft of a local comrade and helper; and to the children (Katherine, Robert & David) who have lost the most precious gift which this old earth bestow, a mother and a mother's love.
