OBITUARY: JOHN HENRY LOUCKS
Loucks, John Henry, son of William and Martha (Rheinbold) Loucks, was born April 11, 1857, in Elkhart Co., Ind.; died at the Goessel Hospital Feb. 22, 1936; aged 78 y, 10 m, 11 d. He died following an illness of a complication of disease, the immediate cause of his death being internal hemorrhages. He had not been well for years, and we will miss the many small things he continually did for us during that time.
In 1879 he was united in marriage to Susan Smith. They came to Kansas the first year of their married life, the Loucks homestead being their home for over 50 years. Seven children came to brighten their home. Two daughters died in infancy and 1 son passed away at the age of 18 years. Those surviving are 4 children, Joseph of Canton, Kans.; Nora Selzer of Protection, Kans.; Anna Wenger and Martha Bitikofer of Canton, Kans.,; 35 grandchildren, 5 great-grandchildren, 5 sisters, 1 brother, 2 uncles, Jonas Loucks and Peter Loucks, and many other relatives and friends. He was a faithful member of the Spring Valley Mennonite Church for almost 80 years. His seat was never vacant when he was able to go. He will be greatly missed in the house and church. The last few days of his suffering he spoke of going home, especially the last day. We are glad we need not mourn as those who have no hope, for we are confident that he has gone home to eternal rest.
Funeral services on Feb. 26th were conducted at the home by Bro. Edward Selzer and at Spring Valley Church by J. S. Hartzler, assisted by Charles Deiner. Text, Psa. 17:15.
