Vera Viola Thorngate Van Horn, daughter of H. H. and Eva Thorngate, was born near North Loup, Neb., December 20, 1890, and passed away November 17, 1932. Her death occurred very suddenly following an emergency operation.

On June 11, 1920, she was married to Beecher L. Van Horn of North Loup. To this union were born three children: Luella, Lynn, and Lyda Marie, all of whom remain. There also remain her father, a sister, and a brother, as well as many other relatives and friends who will greatly miss her.

All of her life has been spent near North Loup with the exception of one year spent in Milton, Wis., while attending college. She was graduated from North Loup High School in 1909, and taught several terms of school nearby. She spent several years as clerk in various stores in North Loup. She was of a happy, jolly disposition that made and retained friends. She was always helpful and generous of both time and money to all good cases.

When quite young she became a member of the Seventh Day Baptist Church, in which she has always retained an active and interested membership.

Her family have claimed her attention for the past few years and she has been more than faithful in her services to them, always having a conscientious desire to do her best for them. She had her human frailties, as do we all, but she filled her niche in life in a manner which no one else can do, and has passed to her reward.

Farewell services were conducted from the North Loup church on Sabbath afternoon, November 19, by her pastor. Interment was in the North Loup cemetery.
