Mabel was the older of two daughters of Roy T. and Maud Warner Yates. When Mabel was quite young the family moved to a farm in Chelsea township, where she later attended District 32, Chelsea School. She attended school in San Diego, Calif., from 1971-1921, when the family returned to Chelsea township and she attended the Ohiowa Public Schools, graduating with the class of 1926. Mabel and Cecil Fox, son of Lewis and Etta Kirst Fox, were married April 14, 1928, in Sidney, Iowa. They made their home on two farms southeast of Geneva before moving into town in 1959. Mabel enjoyed homemaking and crocheting and soon began to do sewing and alterations for others. This eventually led to her working for Walton Furs, making and inserting the linings in fur coats. She was an excellent cook and often baked her special orange rolls and other breads for the country club and others. In 1978, Mabel and Cecil began spending winters in McAllen, Texas. They made many friends and thoroughly enjoyed 10 winters there. As a child, Mabel became a member of the Chelsea E.U.B. Church, then the Geneva E.U.B., and the Geneva United Methodist Churches. She was active in church related activities and a member of the ladies aid society and currently was in the Dorcas Circle of the Methodist Church. She joined the Chelsea Woman’s Club shortly after her marriage and was still a member at the time of her death. When Cecil’s health kept him homebound, Mabel became his loyal companion and care giver. Alter more than 65 years of marriage, Cecil passed away November 23, 1993.
