Read More	Son of John and Rebecca Jane (Waltz) Stickler, he married Adelaide about 1875 (1900 census of Pleasant, Appanoose, Iowa). They had four children, with only two still living in 1900. He later married (bef. 1920) Virtue Mae Caster. FUNERAL SERVICE FOR J. H. STICKLER Largely Attended by Those Who Had Been His Neighbors For Many Years Funeral services for the late John H. Stickler were held at the Christian church in Cincinnati, Iowa, Friday afternoon. Beautiful flowers attested the interest and sympathy of many friends. A congregation that filled the church on a cold and blustery day indicated the general esteem of the people of the community in which he had lived so long. Genuine sorrow was seen on every hand that one who had been so interested in them personally and in their affairs was gone. One could sense the feeling among those assembled that one had left them whose place could not be filled, one who had been a part of their lives and intimately connected with all that pertained to Cincinnati and the surrounding territory. He was gone but the memory of his activities was very much alive. Music was by a quartet composed of Mrs. Matt Steel, Mrs. B. E. Sturdivant, John Browitt and R. M. Ross, with Miss Georgia Smith at the piano. They sang "Lead Kindly Light," "The Old Rugged Cross", "Nearer My God to Thee", and "Abide With Me." The Odd Fellows lodge of which he was a member, the Rebekahs, and the P.E.O. Society attended the services as organizations. He was buried in the regalia of the lodge and his fellow Odd Fellows acted as pall bearers, they being Fred Inns, Jess Scott, Ed Fisk, Fred Scott, John Stuss, and Fred Westerdale. Dr. Mott R. Sawyers, pastor of the Presbyterian church, an old friend of the Stickler family, conducted the service. He spoke of the pioneer families of which the Stickler family was one, of the rugged character, the fidelity to any responsibility he undertook, his courtesy, his devotion to the public interest as an official, his unique qualities as a newspaper correspondent which won him a wide following of readers, and the other commendable qualities which made him a conspicuous member of the community. He spoke of the changes that have come during his lifetime of more than 80 years, and how he found it necessary to adapt himself to them. The scripture text used was one that was appropriate to this idea, Daniel 2-21. He changeth the times and seasons. The address of Dr. Sawyers will be published in the Monday issue of the Iowegian. J. M. Beck, editor of the Iowegian for which Mr. Stickler had been Cincinnati correspondent so many years, spoke of his relations with Mr. Stickler and observations of his work. He spoke of him as a man of real individuality, beneath whose hardy exterior there beat a warm and sympathetic heart which prompted him to hold a continuous interest in other people. This made him a good reporter of the happenings of his community. And his items indicated his personality. He liked to pay compliments to others. He was always seeing the better qualities in people. Their industry and progress won his praise. He took pride in their achievement and was always happy to record accomplishment. The same spirit extended to his community. It was a pleasure to him to tell of the things churches and schools were doing, of the numbers of people who came to market, of the good band concerts, and such things that marked the community life. He was spoken of as one loyal also to his task of providing the news. He made it his concern to get the news to the paper at the earliest possible moment. He would use the telephone to tell of happenings after his letter was mailed in the morning, and he was particular that the news appear in a way to be satisfactory to himself and those concerned. He no doubt labored at times to perform his duties as correspondent when he may have had physical handicaps. But with him to undertake a thing meant to do it the best he knew how, and in his own unique way. His death leaves a vacancy that will be felt not only by the people who knew him, but by a wide circle who knew him through his column in the paper. Burial was in the West cemetery where he sleeps surrounded by many of those who during his eventful years he had served as livery stable proprietor, hotel landlord, city and township official, and newspaper correspondent.
