Last Rites Held For Reynold Hansen –

Funeral services for Reynold Hansen were conducted Friday afternoon at 2 o'clock from the house and at 2:30 from Trinity Lutheran church with Rev. E. N. Haugse officiating. Committal was in Hillside cemetery under direction of McIntyre's Mortuary. The Flower girls were as follows: Lorraine Travis, Pauline Travis, Beulah McLain, Willa Grossart, Wilma Larson, Bonnie Lee Thompsen, Rosemary Smith and Anne Parson. Pallbearers were Freddie Brown, Ted McIntyre, William Cartwright, LaVerne Schuyler, Evan Martin and Kenneth Studley. At the service the choir sang "The Beautiful Isle of Somewhere." Bonnie Bengtson sang the "Old Rugged Cross" and the trio sang "The Beautiful Garden of Prayer."

OBITUARY—Reynold Ansgar Jacob Hansen, son of Mr. and Mrs. Jacob Hansen was born August 13, 1920 on a farm southeast of Wolbach.

On June 16 last, Reynold or Foxy as he was known to his dear ones and friends, became ill and for a week suffered extreme pain. On June 23 he was taken to the Grand Island hospital where in spite of all that loving care and medical science could do, he passed away June 24 at the age of 20 years, 10 months and 11 days.

Reynold was baptized in the Lutheran church January 23, 1921, and was confirmed in Trinity Lutheran church in Wolbach March 28, 1937. He was a faithful member of the Luther League, faithful in his church attendance and in his participation in the Lord's Supper.

Reynold attended grade school in District 75 and high school in Wolbach, graduating in 1938. He entered St. Paul business college in the fall of 1938 and after 8 months had to quit school because of illness. Reynold was fond of music and for the last several months of his life spent much time in that field of activity. He was always faithful and loving to his parents and sister as well as to his grandparents who looked forward to his daily visit and he will be greatly missed by all who knew him.

He is survived by his parents and sister, Mr. and Mrs. Jacob Hansen and Elvina, his grandparents Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Petersen, 9 cousins and a number of other relatives and many friends. One infant brother preceded him in death in 1926 and one sister Darlene in 1935.

"I know not what the future hath, Of marvel or surprise; Assured alone that life and death His Mercy underlies. And so beside the silent sea I wait the muffled oar, No harm from Him can come to me On ocean or on shore."

CARD OF THANKS –
Words seem so small when we try to express our feelings toward our neighbors and friends for all the kindness shown us during the short illness and death of our dear Reynold which was so sudden and who will be greatly missed in our home. Thanks to Rev. Haugse for his many comforting words, the ladies for their beautiful songs, for all the beautiful flowers and other things brought also to all the young folks who came to help us in all ways. It was all such a comfort and will always be remembered. Mr. and Mrs. Jacob Hansen and Elvina, Mr. and Mrs. A. P. Petersen.
