The funeral was held Friday. Her son John was absent in Utah and could not reach home before that time. There was a requiem high mass at Assumption church, Very Rev. J.J. Smith officiating. The interment was in St. John’'s cemetery. There was a large procession. The pallbearers were Owen McNulty, J.K. Martin, Thomas Kirby, Joseph Mulroney, W.I. Branagan, and Henry Hughes. Miss Bridget Hester was born at Westport, in the county of Mayo, Ireland, June 15, 1849. When she was nine months old her parents moved to Morristown, Canada. Several years later they became residents of Butler county, Iowa. She was married in the Coldwater Catholic church at that place, Oct. 26, 1873, to Edward Ryan. Mr. and Mrs. Ryan came to Palo Alto county in April 1878, locating on a farm in Walnut township. They were thrifty and economical and in a few years had a beautiful farm home. A few years ago they came to Emmetsburg. They were the parents of nine children, seven of whom with the husband and father, survive. They are John P., a railway conductor in Utah, Mrs. Chas. McCoy, of this place, Wm. M. of Oregon, Misses Anna T. and Birdie E. and Edward M. and Thomas J., all of who are present at home. Mrs. Ryan was an exemplary wife and mother. She was at all times intensely solicitous for the happiness and welfare of the members of her household. No effort was too laborious for her when performed for the well being of those who were bound to her by the ties that are known to motherhood. Her affectionate solicitude was fully reciprocated. Seldom is there witnessed that loving devotion which marked the attitude towards her by those who were the recipients of her many maternal attentions. She was kind, neighborly and benevolent, and she was one of the most cheerful and contented of women. Her faith in God’s goodness, generosity and mercy was sublime. She sought to direct her footsteps through life in accordance with providential light and guidance. She passed away strongly fortified with the hope that the great Creator would lovingly reward her for every worthy deed that she had performed and that he would grant infinite bliss to the sincerely contrite of heart. The Democrat joins our many citizens in offering sincere sympathy to the grief stricken husband and the other members of the family. [From the Emmetsburg (Iowa) Democrat, June 14, 1911.
