Obituary for Pearle Daisy Nunn Hanes - March 1996
Pearle D. Hanes Rook was born January 5, 1912, the oldest child of 10 children born to Benjamin Franklin and Cora Belle Anders Nunn. She was born in Solomon, Kansas, and attended school at Niles, Kansas. A longtime resident of Dundy County, she died Monday, March 11, 1996. She had spent the last several years at Heritage Home in Wauneta, Nebraska.
During the summer of 1928, a young man by the name of Bert Leroy Hanes was working the wheat harvest in Kansas when he saw Pearle on the street in Niles. He immediately told a friend that she was the girl he was going to marry. They did fall in love and married on October 13, 1928, in Minneapolis, Kansas, and returned to Nebraska. Two children, Bert Jr., and Gloria Kay, were born to this union.
She worked as a housekeeper for many families in the area, was an assistant postmistress, a CB&Q Railway Express agent, a store clerk and a nurse's aide at Hester Memorial Home in Benkelman, Nebraska.
She was active with school, church and county extension activities. She was always quick and more than willing to lend a helping hand to those in need. She will be remembered for her love of music and her natural ability to play the piano and accordion. She had a quick wit and a wonderful sense of humor. More importantly, she embraced life and gave back so much of herself. She received baptism and joined the Methodist Church in Parks, Neb., on March 29, 1959. (Joined church Easter Sunday March 29, 1959, baptized December 1959 at Wray, Colorado in the Christian Church.)
She was preceded in death by her husband, Bert Sr.; their son, Bert, Jr; a half sister Eunice Hornback and two brothers, Jim and George.
