Ekeroth was born in Fremont township, Page county, Iowa, Nov. 8, 1888, moved with her parents to Clarinda where she resided six years, came to Essex in 1895. She was confirmed in the Swedish Lutheran church here in 1903, graduated from the Essex high school in 1905, attended Bethany college, Conservatory of Music, in 1905-7, active and faithful member of the Lutheran church, served as organist five years, president of the Martha society a number of years. Married June 20, 1912 to Rev. George N. Anderson of Templeton, Calif., resided at Topeka, Kan., four years, moved to Fresno, Calif., with family a year ago, returned to Essex about a month ago. Passed away at Denver, Colo., July 20, aged 28 years 8 months and 12 days. She is mourned by her husband, two children, Klemons Leroy and Dorothea Maria, father and mother, sister and brother, besides a large circle of relatives and friends. Short services were held at her paternal home on Tuesday at 10 a.m., and at 10:30 the services were held in the Swedish Lutheran church, where many friends had assembled to pay a final tribute to the departed one. Rev. J. A. Holmen, who for many years had been her pastor, officiated. His text was from John xiv, 1-6 (Extracts from sermon, At home with Jesus, saved by grace through faith in Jesus Christ.) The obituary as in the English language, and \|contained in part, the following beautiful and appropriate tribute: "It was a pleasure to be her pastor, she was a leader, made friends everywhere, always the same, sincerity, no duplicity, frankness, simplicity, loved her home, her church, and her Savior. Thought of her little children to the last. The words 'Jesus help me,' were among the last she uttered:" The many beautiful flowers spoke their silent message of the high regard in which she was held. Miss Florence Kampe presided at the pipe organ. A duet, "At Home There Is Rest," was rendered by Miss Esther Swanson and John Hagglund: solo, "One Sweely Solemn Thought," by Mrs. Seth Bergren; solo, "Safe in the Arms of Jesus," by Miss Linnea Swanson. The pallbearers were G. J. Liljedahl, John G. E. Carlson, M. E. Sar, Seth Bergren, Dolph Hanson and M. L. Sederberg. The burial was in the Essex cemetery. The sorrowing relatives have the sympathy of a broad circle of friends in their bereavement. And thus we have recorded the closing chapter in life of another friend. Mabel has gone on the long journey to return no more. When the tidings were received announcing her death a feeling of sadness passed over the town and community. Only a few days before she had gone to Denver and her many friends hoped that she would improve in health and eventually return better or well. She was a faithful wife, loving mother, obedient daughter, affectionate sister and faithful friend. She had many good qualities. Many friends will cherish her memory with sacred recollections.
