OBITUARY:
Mrs Lemmonds*, wife of Rev. S.S. Lemmonds*, pastor of the U.B. Church south of Pawnee City, who had been in poor health for some time, passed away at her home Saturday, Mar 10.
Funeral services were held Tuesday morning at the U.B. church and interment was made in the Pawnee City cemetery.
Armitta Harter was born in the state of Wisconsin January 10, 1853. Early in life she came with her parents to Monroe Co., Iowa., where she grew to womanhood and on February 7 1874, was united in marriage to S.S. Lemonds. To this union eight children were born, three dying in infancy. Three sons and two daughters survive her. Ernest P. of Hiteman, Iowa; W.S. of Angus, Neb., and Robert at home with his father. The daughters are Mrs Emma Wood of Lincoln and Mrs Catherine Beals of Western, Neb. She is also survived by two sisters, Mrs N.E. Butcher of Sheridan, Iowa and Mrs M.E. Noe of Stoddard, Neb.
Early in life she was converted and joined the United Brethren church, and remained a faithful member until the Master said, "Come up higher". For 21 years she endured the hardships and trails, as well as the blessings and victories incident to the life of a helpmate of an itinerant pastor, and she was always a true helpmate. Many pastors shared the hospitality of this home that it was her delight to render. Among the members and friends of the various charges they served she not only made friends, but she kept them, and it can be truthfully said that her friends are legion.
For several months her health was poor, yet she continued to look after the duties of the home until nine weeks ago. She spent 30 days in the hospital at Pawnee City, during which time she underwent a rather serious operation. After returning to her home even during the most serious illness, she still manifested a deep interest in the domestic affairs, being anxious that every member of the family was well cared for. During all her illness, even when her suffering was most intense, she never murmured or complained, but bore her affliction with that Christian fortitude that only the redeemed can possess.
Saturday morning, March 10, about 8' O'clock, surrounded by all the members of her family, the spirit passed out of the body and into that country where there is no sickness, no sorrow, no pain and no death. In the church another may sit in her pew, in the community another may take her place, in the drama of life another may play her part, but cannot take her place in the hearts of her loved ones.
Funeral services were conducted by Rev. S.M. Snyder of Lincoln at the U.B. Church south of Pawnee City Tuesday morning at 10:00 O'clock.
