Mrs. J.O. Buckingham Passes Away.
Flora Zella Cook, daughter of Nathan and Dorcas Cook, was born in Henry County, Iowa, April 24, 1862, departed this life July 2, 1923 at the age of 61 years, 2 months and 7 days. Her early life was spent in Iowa.
She was married to Jesse Oscar Buckingham at Wheeler's Grove, IA., February 16, 1879. To this union were born three children.
She united with the Christian church at an early age. The family moved to Nebraska in 1891. Here she placed her membership with the United Brethren Church, and was a faithful follower of the cross all her life. She was a constant sufferer the past year, being confined to her bed most of the time.
Although she had a strong desire to get well if God willed, yet when it became evident to her that he willed it otherwise she meekly said "Amen" and quietly awaited the end. God answered her prayer that she might go in peace, and with a heaven-born smile on her face as she passed away, all of the family being with her.
Funeral services were held at the U. B. Church in Amherst July 4 at two p.m. conducted by Rev. F W McKain, assisted by Rev C.C Harris. Singing was furnished by Rev. and Mrs. McKain. Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Froelich and Mrs. M. Hudson of Kearney, accompanied by Mrs. Frochlich and Evelyn McKain.
The church was a mass of beautiful flowers, tributes to her beautiful christian life. Burial at Riverdale cemetery where Rebekah lodge of Kearney had charge of the services. She leaves to mourn her departure her husband, J.O. Buckingham, and three children, Mrs. G.W. Clark, of Bertrand, Neb.; Clarence Buckingham and Jessie O. Wakeman, of Amherst; six grandchildren, two sisters, Mrs. John Goehring, Carson, Iowa; and Mrs. W.M. Adams, Ainsworth, Neb.;
three brothers, G.W. Cook, Bakersfield, Calif.; A.J. Cook, Sex Smith Canada; and
W.R. Cook, Central City, Neb; also many other relatives and friends.
