Grabau of Bonair Dies at Age 55; Services Held Monday Manchile Theodosia Hunter was born January 14, 1903 in Lime Springs, Iowa and passed away at Mercy Hospital in Cresco, September 19, 1958. She was the daughter of Albert Hunter and Amy Craft Hunter. She attended the Lime Springs Public Schools and grew to maturity in that community. Also, at Lime Springs in girlhood she became a member of the Methodist Church, later transferring her membership to the Bonair Methodist Church. She was married to Earl Lawrence Grabau in October, 1923 at Cresco, moving to Olin, Iowa, where Mr. Grabau was high school principal. As the wife of a superintendent of schools the next four years were spent at Morley, Iowa, followed by fifteen at Lakota, Iowa and two years at Dodge Center, Minnesota; coming back to the Cresco community in 1945. Mrs. Grabau was the mother of three children, Althea Elaine, wife of Gerald Hilliard of St. Paul; Roger of Cresco; and Janet Mae, now Mrs. Stanley Austin of Minneapolis. Surviving are Mr. Grabau, the three children, one grandson, her father and her stepmother of Lime Springs and her two sisters, Mrs. Ralph Farrar of Spencer, Iowa, and Mrs. Homer Mears of Lincoln, Illinois. This tribute was given by her family: "She was so talented in so many ways that usually she was busy. She assisted much in social and civic organizations. She was especially active in the Woman's Society of Christian Service of her church. As chairman of these groups, which was often, she instilled such confidence and cooperation that it apperared easy. Until failing health prevented it, Mrs. Grabau was stewardess of Holy Communion at the Bonair Methodist Church. All these gifts were so little when compared to the concern and love of a mother in the home and the many tributes from friendws were only symbolical of a lovely, gracious personality and sterling character". Funeral services for the deceased were held Monday afternoon at the First Methodist Church of Cresco, the pastor Rev. Paul W. Somerville officiating. Mr. and Mrs. W. A. Vander Bie sang "Ivory Palaces" and "Beyond the Sunset". The organist was Mrs. James Rathert. Burial was at the Phillips cemetery east of Bonair.
