Table Rock Argus, Oct/ 28, 1932.
SUDDENLY CALLED- The entire community was shocked Sunday afternoon by the announcement that Mrs. Anna B. Heer had died at 2:30 o'clock at her home in this city. She had attended Sunday services in the morning and taught a Sunday school class and remained for morning services. After the service she complained of being ill and asked some one to take her home in a car. Mr. and Mrs. Horton got her in their car, took her home, Mr. Horton helped her to the bedroom, where ladies prepared her for bed. Dr. McCrea was summoned and administered medicines to relieve her suffering. Her son ? and his wife, and other friends were soon at her bedside, but she passed away at 2:30.
Anna Belle Hanson, daughter of Edward A. Hansen and wife, was born near Table Rock September 24, 1866, and died very suddenly, at her home in Table Rock October 23, 1932, aged 66 years, 1 month and 1 day.
She spent a happy childhood and girlhood in the pioneer home of her parents with her five brothers, Albert, J. Willard, Alfred, Calvin and Lawrence and her sister, Ada. Ada and her husbands have preceded her in death.
In her youth she accepted Christ as her Savior under the teachings of Rev. ? of the Presbyterian church and has been faithful to the end, she taught a class in Sunday school and attended church services on the day of her death.
On 1885, she was united in marriage to Lewellyn S. Fellers by Rev. George W. Hawley,of the M. E. church. To this union were born four children: Nellie Lillian, who married Earl Horton of Fort Morgan, Colo., but her span of life was brief; Elsie D. who died in infancy, Victor Kenneth, who married Grace Estella Bedea, of Table Rock; and Dorcas L., who married Bryan O. Mills of Culbertson, Nebraska.
In 1900, her husband, Lewellyn S. Fellers passed away, and fourteen years later she married Ben Heer. Again she was bereft of a companion in her declining years, in the death of Mr. Heer in 1926.
Mrs. Heer was a good friend, a good neighbor and a good mother. She made many sacrifices that her children might receive a high school education. She accepted without question the responsibility of caring for the little baby girl, left by the death of her daughter.
She was a faithful member of the Methodist church and a worker in the Sunday school, in the missionary society, the W. C. T. U., the Woman's Relief Corps, and the Degree of Honor. Her home was ever ready, for the entertainment of these societies, her hospitality was well known. She will be mourned by many.
"Well done thou good and faithful servant, thou has been faithful over a few things; I will make thee ruler over many things; enter thou into the joy of they Lord."
Funeral services were held in the M. E. church at 2 o'clock Tuesday afternoon, conducted by the pastor, Rev. W. E. Caldwell, who preached a sermon of helpfulness. A mixed quartet rendered beautiful music, and the church was filled with mourning friends. The floral offerings were very beautiful. Various organizations of women's societies were present in a body, adding to the solemnity of the occasion. The remains were buried in Table Rock cemetery.
In the passing of Mrs. Heer, a native born citizen of Table Rock has gone to her reward, and she will be greatly missed in all circles of our community life.
