Funeral services were held for Mr. Ed. Sternberg, were held from the Lutheran church on Monday afternoon, Rev. A. R. Sander officiating. The mortal remains were shipped to Lexington Tuesday morning, where they will lie next to those who have entered eternity before him. Following is a short history of the deceased.
Mr. Sternberg was born in Germany, August 6, 1856. In his infancy he was baptized in the Lutheran church and later also confirmed in this faith. In the year 1856 he left Europe, and came to Nebraska, spending the greater part of his later life in different localities of this state. In the year 1889 he was united in holy matrimony to Miss Bertha Manke. During the last few days of his life, he became afflicted with cancer, causing him untold suffering and discomfort. All medical skill possible was applied, but nothing was powerful enough to combat this horrible ailment. Finally, after a week of especially intense suffering, he died at six o'clock on the morning of August 3. He leaves to mourn his departure: his wife, his four sons and two daughters. Two sons and three daughters having previously been called to their eternal reward.
May the Lord comfort the wounded hearts, and my this death cause us all to number OUR days that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.
