The services were conducted by the pastor of the church, Rev. Arthur Swanson, and interment was in Fairview Cemetery. Melissa Walrod was born in Plymouth County, Iowa on 8 January 1844 and departed from this life at the home of her son, Riley Walrod, of near Grant, Nebraska. Her age was 91 years, 4 months and 10 days, death resulting from ailments that accompany extreme age. She was the daughter of Abram and Julia Anna Walrod, and one of a family of fourteen children, onely one of whom survives her, a brother in New York. In 1863 she was united in marriage to Jame R. Walrod. To this union two children were born, Rile H. and a daughter Emma, wife of Tom Edwards, who died at the age of 20 years, They also reared to manhood a grandson, John Edwards, and another boy, Newton Cole, who was taken into their home and cared for until grown. The family came to Nebraska in 1898, first settling in the eastern part of the state, and later coming to Perkins County in 1817 where they have since resided. Mrs. Walrod leaves to mourn her departure, her son and daughter-in-law, with whom she made her home since her husband's deaqth; seven grandchildren, and fourteen great grandchildren, besides her aged brother. Her husband preceded her in death 10 October 1921. She was blessed with good health the greater part of her life and was very active until stricken a few days before her death. Mrs. Walrod united with the Baptist Church in her girlhood and lived the life of a good Christian. She was known to many friends as "Grandma" and was a woman of fine characher and always made friends whereever she went. Her throughts and deeds were always for the welfare of others, and she was happiest when administering to the needs of those in distress. In many homes where there was sickness and death, it was "Grandma's" loving hands and kindly words that soothed the pain of the sufferer and brightened the hearts of those bereaved. Her familiar words, "I'll go and do all I can" have brought hope and courage when others were ready to give up. Loving kindness was not limited to relatives and friends, but was bestowed on all whom she could help in any way. Obituary: Grant, Perkins County, Nebraska
