PIONEER WOMAN PASSES AWAY Mrs. Allie M. Sterling, wife of the late Chas. L. Sterling, was born at Richmond-Mills, N.Y., on May 17th, 1851, and passed to her reward at Gordon, Neb., on June 2nd, 1923, at the age of 72 years and 15 days. Her husband, with whom she had traveled life's journey for forty-eight years, preceeded her to that better world on January 17th, 1923. She leaves to mourn her going one brother, M.W. Reed, of Gordon; a sister of East Bloomfield, N.Y.; a daughter, Mrs. L.P. Stedman, of Gordon; and one son, J. Reed Sterling, of Stockport, Iowa. Besides these there are three grandchildren and one great grandchild. In childhood Mrs. Sterling was converted to the Christian religion, uniting with the Methodist church and lived a conscientious christian life to the time of her death. Altho unable on account of poor health to attend the services of the church, she was a member of the Home Department of the Sunday School and kept up the study of the Sunday School lesson at home. She was present at the last Mother's Day service on May 13th, 1923, and altho her hearing was greatly impaired, she enjoyed being in a religious service. Mrs. Sterling was for over a quarter of a century a patient sufferer; patient in it all, but few, if any, of her friends hear her complain; as St. Paul wrote to the Russian Christians, she was "patient in tribulation," and I am sure that few, if any of us, would call her back to that state of suffering, since she has been released to be with her Lord. Dr. Talmadge was once asked: "What can you prove about death?" Just this: "That death permits us to have a perfect body, free from all aches and pains, united forever with a perfect should free from sin. When you see a grey hair, thank God; and when you feel another infirmity, thank God; and when you discover another wrinkle in your cheek, thank God. What does it mean? It means that moving (missing) quit cramped apartments and move into a mansion of God's forever." This is our faith, that she "being absent from the body is at home with the Lord." Life's labor done, as sinks the clay, Light from its load the spirit flies. While heaven and earth combine to say, How blest the righteous when she dies. The funeral services were conducted from the Methodist church on Sunday afternoon, June 3rd, by Rev. J.M. Wingett. Source: Van Buren Co.
