There was a brief service at the home at 1:30, after which the funeral party accompanied the remains to Nevada, where the service was held at the Nevada Evangelical church, with the pastor, Rev. Deedrick in charge assisted by Rev. Charles Pickford. Interment was in the Nevada cemetery. Dorothy Berkshire-Hobson was born in Champaign Co., Ill., Sept. 21st, 1886, and passed from this world at the Des Moines General Hospital, Aug. 9th, 1932 Age 46 years, 10 months and 19 days. Her early life was spent in Champaign county, Ill. On oct. 19, 1904, she was married to M. C. Hobson, and after a few years sojourn in Missouri, came to Iowa, and settled in Story county, where they have lived until the time of her death. To this union there was born two sons and four daughters: Clarence of Nevada, Mrs. Clifford Kemmerer of Zearing, Ida, Arthur, Rozella and Ruby at home. Besides these, there remain to mourn the loss, her mother, who resides in Urbana, Ill., who resides in Urbana, Ill., one brother, Claud, also of Urbana, two sisters, Mrs. Nelson Johnstone of Moline, Ill., and Mrs. Harley Shoop [should be Shoup] of Urbana, Ill. Also fifteen nieces and nephews, many friends and neighbors. Those who preceded her in death are her brother James, her sister, Elizabeth, and her father, who passed away just a month ago. In the early part of their married life, she with her husband united with the Blue Mound United Brethren Church, near Urbana, Ill., and was a firm believer, and was looking to God in prayer when she was passing away. She was a devoted wife and loving mother, spending her time in the home, a her duty called. *SUBMITTER'S NOTE: The mother of Dorothy "Dollie" (Berkshire) Hobson was Nettie Emiline (Berkshire) Pinaire. Nettie was born in 1870 and survived Dorothy dying in 1956. Being born in 1870, Nettie would have been 16 when she gave birth to Dorothy. Dorothy was given her mother's maiden name as her surname. Presumably Nettie was a single mother. Nettie later married John Felician Pinaire, who died 7 July 1932. Dorothy's siblings mentioned above were possibly her half siblings and their last name, like their mother, was Pinaire.
