Funeral services at the First United Methodist Church in Iowa Falls. Private burial at a later date. The amazing, over a century long life, of Adeline Edith Kroll began on February 1, 1918, in Hampton, Iowa to Fred and Ruth [Fletcher] Kroll. She attended rural Vernon No. 2 school and graduated as the class valedictorian from the Dows High School in 1935. After attending Ellsworth Junior College she taught in two rural schools before her marriage. On March 4, 1938, she married Ralph Arthur Collins in Williams, Iowa, and they were the parents of three children, Bryce, Sharon, and Glenda. They lived in rural Dows for 81 years, her father-in-law Warren Collins lived with the family for 27 years. In 1998 the couple moved to Iowa Falls. Ralph and Adeline spent 25 winters in Texas. Many times Adeline drove the long route pulling a fifth-wheel camper. She was a member of the Dows Methodist Church since 1940. She held various offices within the church, and she loved teaching 1st grade Sunday School for many years. She was a 4-H leader for nine years and an active member of the Vernon Friendly Club for over 60 years, along with being a member of the Kensington and other local clubs. Adeline kept a diary for over 80 years and made scrapbooks to record family activities and national news. Throughout her long and extraordinary life she saw many changes and events our country has gone through over the last 100 years. Her brilliant mind astonished many and she won many discussions remembering dates and events. She was an excellent cook and kept two large recipe boxes, plus many cookbooks and “yet to be tried” recipes. Gardening was also a passion of hers, as she annually would grow various roses and over 1000 gladioli flowers, entering many into garden shows and competitions. Adeline also enjoyed crossword puzzles, crafts, bird watching, and a lively game of cards with friends or family. Adeline is survived by her daughter Sharon Womack of Webster City, daughter Glenda Plant and husband Tom of Philomath, Oregon, and daughter-in-law Dora Collins (Bryce) of Iowa Falls; eight grandchildren, 12 great-grandchildren, and two great-great grandchildren. Adeline Collins was preceded in death by her husband Ralph, her son Bryce, her sister Gertrude Hilpipre [FAG 184937771], and her parents Fred and Ruth Kroll.
