Perry Is Called to Reward – Death Follows Long Illness; Came Here in 1901 from Wahoo; Was Born in England – That Albert G. Perry will be missed by a host of friends far outnumbering his immediate family was witnessed at the Methodist church Sunday afternoon when mourners from a great distance attended the last rites conducted by the pastor Rev. G. M. Bing, assisted by Bridgadier James Fooks of the Salvation Army at Sioux City, Iowa, a nephew of Mr. Perry. Accompanied at the piano by Mrs. H. C. Adams, Mrs. J. C Wilson sang a solo and Mrs. Wilson, Miss Ruth Luers, and Messrs. W. H. and R. P. Bissell sang two numbers. Interment was made in the Hillside Cemetery, with graveside ceremonies conducted by the I. O. O. F. Lodge. Pallbearers were: Tad C. Sutton, Dr. A. H. Holm, Mike Fitzsimmons, M. H. Teilmann, Jake DeLaurant and Fred Elliott. Albert George Perry, son of Jeremiah and Mary Ann Perry, was born at Wolson Sands in Bedfordshire, England, January 11, 1865 and passed away in his home in Wolbach, Nebraska, March 14, 1938, at the age of 73 years, 1 month and 28 days. When a lad of nearly four years he came to America with his parents and other members of the family and his father homesteaded near Wahoo, Nebraska. Here he grew to manhood, and on February 27, 1892 was married to Eva May Moss. To them were born three children, all of whom survive their father. They are Ernest J., Gerald A., and Mrs. Daisy Hansen, all of Wolbach. Mr. Perry came to Greeley County in 1901 and lived on a farm near Wolbach until 1929, when he came to town to live, and his two sons have since farmed the home place. As a child he was baptized by a minister of the Primitive Methodist Church in England, and after coming to Wolbach affiliated with the Methodist Church here. He was also a member of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows for many years, as also he was a Modern Woodman of America. Of few men who have lived in a community as long as Mr. Perry has lived here, do we hear so many words of commendation from so many and varied sources. His daily walk to and from the farm was a means of keeping him in health for years beyond the usual age of retired men. About six months ago, he was taken to Grand Island where an operation seemed to promise restoration of health, but complications which were not then apparent, baffled the skill of physician and surgeon and for many weeks he was a quiet, patient sufferer, until at 2 o'clock of the morning of Friday, March 11, 1938 surrounded by his sorrowing family and faithful physician, he quietly breathed his last. He is survived by his widow, Eva May; his two sons and daughter, named above, eight grandchildren, one sister, Miss Fannie Perry, of Sioux City, Iowa, and numerous nephews and nieces. His then one remaining brother Edward passed away at his home at Wayne, Nebraska, a few months ago. The following was contributed: "Some where back of the sunset Where loveliness never dies, He'll live in a land of glory With the blue and gold of the skies; And we, who have known and loved him, Whose passing has brought us tears, We'll cherish his memory always To brighten the drifting years."
