21 February 1924 - West Branch Times

G. B. Hutcheson died yesterday at his home on Eighth street after a
comparatively short illness. The news came as a great shock to his friends
throughout the country. It had been known that he had been ailing, but not
that his condition was at all dangerous.

Mr. Hutcheson was born in Iowa township, Aug. 29, 1853. His parents were early
day pioneers, having settled on an Iowa township farm in 1841. His early life
was spent on the homestead of his father and during his active years he
followed the occupation of farming with the exception of one year when he was
engaged in business in Atalissa.

Mr. Hutcheson moved to Tipton from the Iowa township farm only a few weeks ago
in order to be near his daughter, Mrs. Peter Wingert. He is survived by his
widow and five children, Mrs. Geo. Linn, L. C. Hutcheson, Mrs. Peter Wingert,
Charles R. Hutcheson and Everett L. Hutcheson. The funeral arrangements have
not been announced. --Tipton Advertiser

Mr. G. B. Hutcheson, son of Joseph L. and Sarah Hutcheson, was born on a farm
in Iowa township, Cedar county, Iowa, August 29th, 1853, and died at his home
in Tipton, Iowa, Feb. 14th, 1924, aged 70 years, 3 months and 15 days. He was
one of a family of eight children, all but one of whom have preceded him.

Dec. 1st, 1923, he left the farm and came to Tipton, which was to be his
future home.

With the exception of five years in Waterloo, two years in Cedar Rapids while
his son Everett served in the world war, and one year in which he was engaged
in business at Atalissa, he has spent his life in Cedar county. He took great
interest in farming, which has been his occupation most of his life. He was
industrious and saving and was able to gain a competency of this world's
goods. He was honorable in all of his dealings and will be remembered for his
strict integrity.

His was a modest and retiring disposition, but those who knew him found him a
congenial companion and a faithful friend.

The real joy of his life was the home which he loved dearly and gave of his
time and energy to make it attractive and comfortable. He was a loving husband
and kind father. He took great interest in all of his children, and when with
his grandchildren his joy was complete. He will live always in their lives and
characters.

He was always cheerful and one of the greatest tributes that can be paid to
his memory is that he never spoke a disparaging word of anyone.

He was a member of the Presbyterian church at Pedee and lived and died in the
Christian faith.

He was united in marriage with Miss Mary Roberts in 1877. To this union five
children were born: Mrs. George Linn of Springdale, Lon of Centerdale, Mrs.
Peter Wingert of Tipton, Chas. of Minneapolis, and Everett of West Liberty.

There remains to mourn his departure and to cherish his memory, his wife and
five children, six grandchildren, one great grandchild, one sister, Mrs. Geo.
Scott of West Liberty, and other relatives and friends.

He had been in failing health for some time but his sudden death came as a
great shock to his family and friends. The sympathy of the community where he
has been so long and favorably known is extended to them. May the God of all
grace comfort and sustain them and make the hour of parting but the promise of
a glad reunion in the Father's house above.

"Like a father pitieth his children, so the Lord pitieth them that fear Him."

"In after years, when we, too, have taken up life's obligations, we realize
the hidden depths of a father's tender solicitude and loving care. "Tis then
we better understand his wise advice and guidance, and why it was we often
found him in silent contemplation and alone. God bless him."

Funeral services were held at the home Sunday P.M. at 2:00 o'clock, Rev. C. K.
Hudson officiating, assisted by Rev. C. M. Wallace --Tipton Advertiser
