Miss Riedeman passed on at the Orange City Hospital late Sunday, Oct 24. She had been a patient there since February, 1962. On Sept. 4th of this year she suffered a paralytic stroke. Miss Riedeman was born Oct. 23, 1974 at Wyhe, the Netherlands to H.H. and Jannetje Tiemens Riedeman. Her parents and their family came to America in April 1886 and settled in Alton, Iowa, where they continued to make their home until her passing. Preceding her in death were two brother, Henry W. and Herman; and two sisters, Zwantje and Hattie (Mr. H.W. Klein). She is survived by two nieces, Mrs. Richard H. Cambier of Alton and Miss Charlotte Riedeman of Paso Robles, Calif.; and five nephews. Miss Riedeman was a graduate nurse and served her country as a nurse during World War I. She followed her profession in Sioux City for many years and then retired to make her home in Alton, where she continued to do many good and neighborly deeds. She was a member of Floyd Past, American Legion, over a long period of years and is remembered kindly by many World War I veterans, as well as by hundreds of civilians to whom she ministered in her capacity as a nurse. After World War II when Holland was in desperate need of food and clothing, she packed scores of boxes of supplies for relatives and correspondents in that country, some of them strangers to her. Later she made a trip to the Netherlands where she met, not only her relatives but others whom she had befriended with food and clothing in their need. Under the signature "J.R." some of her interesting letters from Holland appeared in the Alton Democrat. In her later years she attended the local Christian Science Church. In addition to her concern for Europeans in need she did a great deal of knitting for Korean War orphans and was always ready to give help to those in need, at home or abroad. Interment was in the family plot at Nassau Township Cemetery, where semi-military honors were accorded by Floyd Post, American Legion. Pallbearers were J.R. Reinders, Anthony Hasselo, Charles De Vries, Vernon Newendorp, Max Kiernan and Jack Van 'TVeld.
