Kane's health was known to be poorly for a long time, the announcement that his death occurred Sunday morning in Yankton, was received here almost incredulously. As a patient in the hospital in Yankton for sometime, receiving treatment for a heart ailment, it was thought his physical condition would eventually improve. However, he gradually became weaker and death beckoned to him at 12:40 Sunday evening. Mr. Kane was born at Waukegan, Ill, March 4, 1854, his death occurred on November 16, 1930. In his youth, he resided in his natal city, later he removed with his parents to Rising City, Wisconsin, where he attended school and did farm work. When nineteen years of age, he came with his mother, brothers and sisters to Knox county, where Mr. Kane secured a homestead, which was located northeast of Creighton. Later, he acquired a timber claim near there. In November 1887 the wedding of George I. Kane and Sarah McShane occurred at Hay Springs, Nebr. To this wedlock, five children were born, George H., Creighton, Mrs. Elizabeth McManus, Bloomfield, Rose Kane, Long Beach, Calif., Sister M. Senece, Randolph, Nebr. and Charles Kane, the latter preceding his father in death in 1922. Other immediate relatives of the deceased are a brother, Philip Kane of Sheridan, Wyo. and two sisters, Mrs. B.C. Reefe of Omaha and Mrs. Louis Goetz of Hartington, Nebr. Funeral services were held Tuesday morning at 9:30 from St. Ludger's church in Creighton. Requiem mass was celebrated by Father Mines of Omaha, a cousin of the deceased, deacon and subdeacon, being Father Teves of Randolph and McNamara of Bloomfield. Father Windolph preached the sermon and spoke commendatory of the life of the deceased. The great number, who attended the funeral evidenced the honor and respect in which George I. Kane was held throughout a lifetime. The body was interred in St. Ludger's Cemetery at the side of his wife, who preceded him in death in 1913. The resume of the life and death of George I. Kane would be incomplete without a direct emphasis on his integrity. Never in an entire lifetime was it known that he neglected to fulfill an obligation, which he contracted. His word was always good, nor was it ever known that he mistreated a fellowman. Could that the epitome of any man's lifetime be equally great. The life of George I. Kane, fellow townsman, pioneer of Nebraska since 1888, a friend of his every acquaintance could well be emulated. A community of sorrowful friends extend sincere sympathy to those bereaved for the loss by death of a devoted father and brother. ...The Creighton News 20 Nov 1930
