The Onaga Herald
October 16, 1930
Zelda Sherman was born at Cedar Falls, Iowa, on March 11, 1868, and passed from this life on October 11, 1930, at the age of 62 years and six months. She came with her parents to Pottawotomie county, Kansas, when three years old, settling in the Arispie neighborhood. Here she grew to womanhood, and on March 9, 1886 she was married to Dolph Brown. This union was blessed with two children. Mrs. Zetta Guffy, of Onaga and a son Hiram, who died in 1923. Mr. Brown passed to his reward in 1946. She is survived by the one daughter, three grandchildren and one great grandchild. Two sisters also survive, Mrs. Blanche Myers, of Onaga, and Mrs. Florence Alsip, of Wamego. Two sisters have gone on before.
Mrs. Brown was one of the type of woman whose all was bound up in her home. She loved her home and devoted almost all her interests to it. She built into it her ideals and those of her Master. She made confession of her faith in Christ and united with the Christian church at White Eagle, near Westmoreland, in 1888, and never changed her church relationship. Since coming to Onaga nineteen years ago, her religious activities have found expression through the Congregational church. She was also a member of the Rebecca lodge.
Thoughtful of others and often self-sacrificing in their behalf, she has won a place in all hearts. In recent months she has not been well, but she has been sustained by an unfaltering trust in God that led her to face the end confidently, even in the face of great physical suffering.
Funeral services were conducted by Rev. Horton at the Congregational church Sunday afternoon, October 12. There was a good representation of former friends and neighborhood, several of whom acted as pall bearers. The Rebekahs attended as a group. Interment was in the Onaga cemetery.
Card of Thanks.
We desire to express our deep gratitude to all who by acts and words of sympathy and helpfulness, have shared the burdens of the sickness and death of our mother and sister; also to those who made floral offerings or rendered the comfort of music.
