She passed beyond the great divide on the same farm where she was born.Elma Elizabeth Beltz was born on a farm the 31st day of December, 1862. She was united in marriage to Mr. John Gerber, the 16th day of March, 1884. They started home-building on a farm in Guthrie county, Iowa. In 1900 they moved back to Cedar county, locating on a farm south-west of Tipton, where she was highly esteemed as a good neighbor and a good citizen.Early in life she joined the church-the Baptist church in Galion, Ohio. When they established their home in Guthrie county, she had her membership transferred to the Methodist church.In the Scriptures we read "And it fell one day that Elisha, the Prophet, passed to Shunem, where was a good woman; and she constrained him to eat bread. And so it was, that as oft as she passed by, he turned in thither to eat bread." Many a minister likewise has testified of the fine hospitality of the John Gerber home, of which mother Gerber was the home-maker and home-builder. Her quality of spirit, of service, of loyalty, of hospitality and her nourishing goodness has served the cause of the church and kingdom-building in so many different ways. Thus, with her departure, she leaves a fragrance of a good life, of a kindly mother's influence. She leaves to mourn her departure her husband: Mr. John Gerber, and her children: E. Gilman Gerber, John Edward Gerber, Mrs. Geo. W. Morgan, all of Tipton; and Harry A. Gerber, of Tuscon, Arizona; as well seven grandchildren, and other relatives and friends.Two children of the home have preceded the mother in death, namely Lillie B. and Gertie E.Her funeral services were held from the Methodist Episcopal church, Tipton, last Saturday afternoon, and her body was laid to rest in the Masonic cemetery.
