Grandma Freeman Passes Away
Mary Catherine Freeman, (Nee Flowers,) was born near Zanesville, Ohio, September 2, 1829, and passed peacefully away at her home in Gravity, Iowa, June 17, 1907, aged 77 years, 9 months, and 15 days. In 1850 she was united in marriage with S.C. Freeman. To this union were born 14 children, six of whom preceded the mother into the silent land, 8 children survive as follows: N.J. Freeman, Norfolk, Neb.; V.W. Freeman, of Shenandoah; L.B. and B.C. Freeman, of Clarinda; Mrs. S. Johnson, of Gravity, Mrs. J.M. Keasling, of Conway; Mrs. E.D Farnham, of Gravity, and Mrs. J. M. Hoskinson, of Corning, Iowa, all of whom mourn the going away of this Godly mother. In 1855 the family moved from Ohio and came to Henry county, this state, where they lived until 1873 when they came to Taylor county. Eleven years ago on account of old age and failing health they left the old home place and came to Gravity, there to spend the balance of their days.
Sister Freeman was converted when very young, and united with the M.E. church in Columbus, Ohio; 18 years ago she with her husband united with the M.E. church in Gravity. Grandma Freeman’s work on earth is done. She was a pious Christian mother, she loved and was loved by all who knew her, she was a kind neighbor and was always ready to lend a helping hand to those who were in need. She has gone to the city of the Great King, there they need not the light of moon or stars by night, nor the sun by day. God is the light of that city, there will be no night there.
An afflicted husband, with eight children, one brother, who lives in Stanburt, Missouri, who could not attend the funeral deeply deeply mourn the passing of an affectionate wife, sister and mother.
Her remains were laid to rest in the Gravity cemetery, where they will wait for the trumpet call.
