"The North Loup Loyalist", North Loup, Nebraska, Friday, Dec. 28, 1934, p 1.

The last rites for Mrs. Edna Green were held from the Seventh Day Baptist church Sunday afternoon at two o'clock, with Rev. Hurley S. Warren conducting the services.

The body lay in state at the Bohrer funeral parlors Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning. The room where the casket stood was a bower of flowers which were sent from California with the body. While some of the blossoms had shattered, the chrysanthemums especially were remarkably fresh and beautiful.

The farewell services were particularly beautiful. Rev. Warren based his message on the text, "And Jesus Himself met them and said, 'Good morning.'" - Matt. 28: 9, (American Translation) with the subject, The "Good Morning" of Jesus.

The songs. "My Heart is in the Homeland," "Cast Thy Burden on the Lord," and "Goon Night and Good Morning," were sung by a quartet composed of Mrs. A. H. Babcock, Mrs. Glen Johnson, Arch Moulton, and Dell Barber. They were accompanied by Maxine Johnson. Casket bearers were Glen Johnson, Glen Barber, Rolla Babcock, Roy Cox, George Maxson and Merrill Van Horn.

Edna Leona Green, the oldest daughter and child of Herbert and Emma Brace Green, was born at North Loup, Nebraska, February 7, 1884 and passed away Wednesday December 12, 1934, at Woodlake, California at the age of 50 years, 10 months and 5 days, just 23 days after the departure of her husband whose passing occurred November 19.
Edna has spent practically all her life in North Loup until the family moved to California in 1932. She graduated from the North Loup High School with the class of 1901. She was baptized by Rev. James Hurley in 1898 and joined the Seventh Day Baptist church. She was active in the Christian Endeavor societies and has always been interested an all forms of Christian work. When she with her family moved to California she joined the church there of which Myrtle is pastor and has entered actively into their work at Woodlake.

January 6, 1903 she was united in marriage with Truman Wardner Green to whom were born nine children, two daughters preceding them in death in infancy. She is survived by her children: Howard A. at Anaheim, California, Myrtle, Ethel, Dewey and Paul of Woodlake, California, Mrs. Lucille Pegg of Broadwater, Nebraska, and Gertrude Cook of Ord, Nebraska. Myrtle and Dewey were in Nebraska to attend the burial of their father at the time of her departure. She also leaves her mother, Mrs. Emma Green and sister Leo of North Loup, a brother, L. O. Greene of Haigler, Nebraska and a sister Mrs. Mildred Van Horn of Loma Linda, California.

Edna has been a kind and loving wife and mother, devoting her time to the care and the training of her children. She was faithful to the end in caring for the needs of her suffering husband.

She spent many years of hard toil on the farm at North Loup until they moved to California where the family have all been intensely interested in religious work. Wardner and Edna have spent their last years in Christian service. They have given theor all to help make the world a better place and have laid down the burden to go home to their Lord and Master for whom they have devoted their time and talent. They had an unbounding faith in Him and were ready to go when He called. The home which is left so suddenly without both father and mother has been saddened but the children who have been taught od a great Father's love and care will go on trusting Him and carrying on the work which both father and mother were so intensely interested in. Edna will be remembered for her kind and even disposition and for her patience and loving devotion to her family and God. "Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord." "I go to prepare a place for you, that where I am, there you may be also."
