Read More	Obituary MAYNARD Justin Warren Ranney Justin Warren Ranney has gone on, but the kind deeds that he performed, his kindly words and the warm clasp of his hand are still with us. Justin Warren Ranney, son of Julius Caesar and Nancy M. Ranney, was born at Fairbank, Iowa on December 8th 1870 and passed peacefully away in the early morning of April 28th, 1941 at the age of 70 years, 4 months, and 8 days. The Ranney family came to Maynard in 1885 when Justin Ranney was 15 years of age. With the exception of about 10 years when he was employed by the Bell Telephone company, he has made his home in Maynard. While away he and his family resided in Iowa Falls, Alden, Ackley, Cedar Falls and Fredericksburg, Ia. On March 31st, 1895, Justin Ranney was united in marriage to Charlotte Packard, also of Maynard, Iowa. To this union were born nine children: Grace, Mrs. Clayton Morse of Maynard; Ruth, Mrs. Robert Ponsar of West Union, Ia.; Fern, Mrs. Earl Shemick of St. Paul, Minn.; Helen, Mrs. Max Hedrick of Glen Ellen, Ill.; Mary, Mrs. Elmer Moen of Kewanee, Ill.; Ardath, Mrs. Louis Garnier of Maynard and Kathryn at home; Dale Charles who died in 1902 and an infant son Byron Edmund who passed away in 1904. The seven daughters, with their beloved mother, Justin's devoted wife, were all with him to grant his every wish when the end came. He also leaves three grandchildren and several nieces and nephews. Justin Ranney's philosophy of life was that, we pass through life but once, therefore if there was any kindly act that he could do, he must do it at once. If there was any kindly word that he could say, he must say it when the opportunity arose. Such a philosophy of life has left a multitude of friends, grieved at his passing, but glad that he knew and loved them. The many flowers heaped about his casket bear mute but loving tribute of his good neighborliness. Endowed with a keen mind Justin Ranney held patents for a number of his inventions. Some of which were manufactured at a profit to himself at Maynard, where he engaged in business for many years. During the latter years of his life he filled the office of Justice of the Peace at Maynard, Iowa. Both Mr. and Mrs. Ranney were members of the Presbyterian church and were regular attendants at Sunday School and church services. At these services Justin Ranney will be missed. But he has left behind memories that make life richer and sweeter, because he lived and worked among the people of Maynard. For if each doorway that he entered was happier because he came that way, and each one smiled more tenderly he would count that a perfect day. Riches take wings and fame is comfortless but friendship is a jewel that still binds with a clasp of hand, and smiles, and sometimes tears the hands and hearts of all mankind. Funeral services were held at the Maynard Presbyterian church on Wednesday afternoon. Purley Jennison officiating, assisted by Rev. D. E. Freeman. A trio consisting of E. H. Stewart, Dr. C. C. Hall and Gerald Warnke sang "One by One" and "Shall We Meet", with Mrs. H. Malven accompanist. Those having charge of the flowers were Mrs. George Mears, Mrs. George Maynard and Frances Mears. The pall bears were Mr. Henry Garnier, George Mears, Henry Henniges, L. C. Surfus, Oscar Gilley and George McLeish. Interment was in Long Grove Cemetery.
