Table Rock Argus, Jul. 22, 1932.
JOHN W. BUCKLES-
John W. Buckles was born January 3, 1857, in Van Buren county, Iowa, and departed this life July 15, 1932, at the age of 75 years, 6 months and 11 days. He was the oldest son of Abner and Julia Buckles. His father served three years in the Civil war and during that time John, only seven years old, did the farming with help from his mother.
He was married to Jane Likes on September 2, 1880, at Keosauque, Iowa. To this union were born four children, all surviving and at his bedside. He joined the United Brethren church six miles south of Pawnee City in 1898, and continued in this belief during his entire life. He was an exceptionally kind and loving husband and father, thoughtful of others and very patient, never complaining, always doing things the way he thought was right. He was a member of the Knights and Ladies lodge at Pawnee City, and had been a resident of Pawnee county for forty-three years. He had been afflicted for seven years, but bore it without a murmur that it shouldn't be.
He is survived by his wife, one son, Roy, of north of Pawnee City, and three daughters, Mrs. Madie Fisher of Lincoln, Mrs. Lillie Day of Pawnee City and Mrs. Vera Hoover of Table Rock; five grandsons, Leonard Buckles of Burchard, Arnold and Lowrain Day, Pawnee City, and Wayne Hoover of Table Rock; two great-grandsons, Kenneth and Lavern Buckles of Burchard; five brothers, William of Kansas City, Owen of Selma, Iowa, Grant of Davenport, Iowa, George of Keosauqua, Iowa, and Ed of Milton, Iowa.
Funeral services were held at the home Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock in charge of Rev. A. C. Ogden and interment was in the beautiful Table Rock cemetery.
We'll not forget thee, we who stay
To work a little longer here;
Thy name, thy faith, thy love, shall lie
On memory's page all bright and pure.
Farewell! A little time and we
who knew then well and loved thee here-
One after one shall follow thee
As pilgrims through the gate of fear
That open on Eternity.
