Colby, daughter of Clarence and Henrietta Colby, was born on the old homestead in Nun da township, McHepry county, Illinois, Nov. 9, 1881. The writer's earliest recollection of Edna was a bright, happy school girl of ten years. In school we remember her as an earnest, studious pupil. After completing tile grades in the district schools she attended the high school of Crystal Lake for a short time. However, the environment of home life appealed to her so strongly that she quit school to take up the duties of the home. She remained with her parents until the time of her passing and was .ever the source of great comfort and joy to them in their declining years.» Edna was truly a lover of nature, the flowers, the trees, the birds an<f the dumb animals alike shared in her admiration. About a year ago she showed signs of failing . health, but «t first gavt the matter very little thought. However, the decline became so rapid and marked that her relatives and fri&ids became greatly alarmed and sought the advice of local physicians, who recommended' the cdimsel of skilled specialists in Chicago. It was discovered that a fatal malady had become so deeply seated that she was beyond all human aid. She failed gradually until last Monday morning, December'the 12th, 1921, when she sank to rest in eternal sleep as peacefully as a weary child sinks to rest in its mother's arm, at the age of 40 years, 1 month and 3 days. The funeral was conducted at the home of her parents ilt Crystal Lake by Rev. Dick of the M. E. church of that city at 1:00 on Wednesday afternoon. Burial was in Woodland cemetery in this village. While we mourn with heavy hearts today the departure of one near and dear to us, there is comfort in the thought that she has passed to a land of sunshine and flowers far from the haunts *f pain and sorrow. , Besides her father and mother she leaves two sisters, Mrs. Lee Xockwood and Mrs. Truman Flanders, together with a large number of relatives and friends to mourn her untimely death. Leaves have their time to fall, And flowers to wither t)te north wind's breath, v . Ahd stars to set--tmt all* ' ". **' • Thou hast all seasons for thine Own, O Death. ---Longfellow.
