Funeral services will be held 10:30 a.m. Saturday at the Immanuel Lutheran Church in rural Schuyler. Burial will be in the Schuyler Cemetery. Visitation will be held from 5-7 p.m. Friday at the Svoboda Funeral Home South Chapel, and continuing 9:30-10:30 a.m. Saturday at the church. Edna Stone DeBower was born on March 1, 1907, in Schuyler and was the first child of Alfred Arthur Stone and Josephine Krivohlavek Stone. Edna Cecilia was baptized at First Presbyterian Church in Schuyler. After graduating from Schuyler High School in 1925 she entered Nicholas Senn Hospital School of Nursing in Omaha, where she received her R.N. in 1928. Returning to Schuyler, Edna worked as a private duty nurse for Dr. Fred Kolouch until her marriage. On Feb. 17, 1931, she married Ernest Edward DeBower at First Lutheran Church in Omaha. On Sept. 11, 1932, she became a member of Immanuel Lutheran Church of rural Schuyler, where she maintained membership until her death. In 1953, when Schuyler's Memorial Hospital opened, Edna returned to nursing. She was named co-director of nursing in 1957 and served in that position until her retirement Dec. 15, 1972. Throughout her life, Edna was an active volunteer in her church and in the community. The Sertoma Club awarded its annual Service to Mankind Award to her in 1982. In presenting the award she was cited for her involvement in a broad range of community organizations and activities: Memorial (now Alegent) Hospital Auxiliary, American Legion Auxiliary, Schuyler Senior Citizens Center and American Association of Retired Persons (AARP), and assisting with Bloodmobile visits and local blood pressure clinics. She later became active in the Schuyler/Colfax Historical Society. Until it was disbanded, Edna was a member of Immanuel Lutheran Ladies Aid. Edna is survived by two daughters, Dolores Johnson, of Schuyler, and Janice Beddard, of Mansfield, Ohio; five grandchildren; nine great-grandchildren; a sister, Gladys Stone Smatlan, of Coeur d'Alene, Idaho; and nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by her parents; her husband, Ernest (Oct. 11, 1979); two sisters, Elsie Stone Moroan (May 10, 2004), and Helen Stone Donovan (Feb. 24, 2007); and her sons-in-law, Richard A. Johnson (Aug. 23, 1983), and Dr. Donald N. Beddard (Oct. 18, 2008). The family suggests memorials to Immanuel Lutheran Church or a charity of the donor's choice.
