Notes for: Eula Mae Bodine

From Ronny Bodine:

Obituary, The Stockton (KS) Review and Rooks County Record of Thursday, 10 March 1921.
Last Friday, March 4, our community was saddened by the announcement of the death of Eula Mae Bodine. She was the youngest child of Mr. and Mrs. J. A. Bodine, and was born in Ash Rock township, Rooks county, March 5, 1910. She spent all of her life in this county. She moved to Stockton with her parents about a year ago when her father took up his duties as county engineer. She made a large place for herself in the young life of the community and will be sadly missed in school and church activities as well as in the home. She was stricken with her fatal sickness on February 14, and fought valiantly against the inroads of the disease, but finally lost in the fight and at the hour when we as a nation were passing into a new administration she passed into her new home in the presence of God, the day before her eleventh birthday. Just before moving to Stockton Eula united with the United Bretheren church at Woodston, but since coming here she was a regular attendant at the Congregational Church. Aside from her parents she leaves four sisters and one brother. The sisters are Mrs. Arthur Vanderlip, Mrs. Oscar Vanderlip, Mrs Walter Elder of the Ash Rock neighborhood, and Mrs. Geneva Henly of St. Joseph. Mo., the brother is Irving Bodine of the Ash Rock community. Brief funeral services were held at her late home Saturday at 1 p.m. in charge of Rev. Fred Roys Bush, and interment was made in the Ash Rock cemetery.
