SOURCE: THE MONTICELLO EXPRESS, MONTICELLO,IOWA, DECEMBER 12, 1918, PAGE 1 OBITUARY OF HENRY HARMS The community of Scotch Grove was shocked to hear of the death of Henry Harms on Monday, December 2, at about 4 o'clock. He became ill about a week previous with influenza and seemed to be recovering until about three days before his death when pneumonia developed and in spite of all that could be done for him, and the brave struggle that he made, he passed away after hours of intense suffering. Henry Harms was born to Mr. and Mrs. Edward Harms, in Barnston, Nebraska, October 29, 1891, being 27 years old at the time of his death. September 5, 1913, be was united in marriage to Mary Rieken, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Tobias Rieken. For three years prior to his death, they were engaged in the pursuit of farming on the C. M. Hoist, farm in Scotch Grove township. His death has cast a gloom over the entire neighborhood, for Henry was a man made up of sterling qualities, and made friends wherever he lived. His solo ambition in life was to work to increase the comforts of those about him. His character was composed of those things that bespeak success for any man. He had a sunny disposition, and always greeted his friends in the spirit of good fellowship. His honest upright methods in dealing with his business associates gave him a name that any man might, be proud to own. By his going, a wife and two daughters are bereft of a fond husband and a father's care. A mother, two brothers and three sisters have lost a devoted son and brother, and the community keenly feels the loss of a good friend, who was respected and esteemed by all. Private funeral services conducted by Rev. Willms, were held Friday, December 6, at eleven o'clock at the house with interment in the Wayne cemetery. The beautiful flowers sent by relatives, neighbors and friends, gave evidence of the sincere friendship felt for a man, who, in life, was known for his gentleness toward those who were near and dear to him, and his genuine respect for all mankind.
