First name as engraved on the headstone is "Celesta"; it was entered as "Celeste" in at least one Evergreen cemetery transcription elsewhere. Will use the headstone inscription version pending any clarification.
Wife of James Mitchell Greeley.

Update:
There was a Fairfield Ia. Ledger obituary published for Celesta on Thursday, February 23, 1956, page 8 column 2. However, in the microfilming process the images of that issue were jarred and smeared, so that reading the full verbatim text from microfilm at the Fairfield Public Library is not possible. The paper copies were not retained after microfilming in the 1970's, so unless someone in the family or another source has retained a paper copy or has access to another obituary source, this contributor is not able to provide a full obituary transcription.
