Read More	DEATH OF PROMINENT FARMER Remko Kooi Passed Away Last Friday at His Home Near Lebanon Remko Kooi, one of Garfield township's most widely known citizens, passed away at his home, a mile West of the Lebanon church, last Friday noon following an ilmess of about-six weeks, from heart trouble. Funeral services were held from the home and later from the, Christian Reformed church at Lebanon on Monday afternoon, conducted by Rev. Kok, pastor of the church, and interment was made in the Lebanon cemetery. Remko Kooi was born in Chicago Ill., July 4, 1864, so was past 60 years of age at the time of his death. He came to Sioux county at the age of 17 years and his home has ever since been here. On Sept. 25, 1888, he was united in marriage with Miss Grada Kastine and a couple of years later they moved onto the present home farm in Garfield township and have resided there continuously since that time. Ten children were born to them, nine of whom in addition to the widow survive. One son lost his life by drowning about ten years ago. The children are Mrs. Peter Haverhals, Ben Kooi, Fred Kooi, Mrs, Gerrit Vander Lugt, John Kooi and Mrs. Kate Haverhals, all residing within a few miles of Lebanon, and George, Ellis and Jennie at home. Mr. Kooi was one of the most prosperous farmers of this section. He had acquired large land holdings in Sioux county and had engaged extensively in the live stock business. He was held in high regard by his neighbors and was one of the real leaders of his community and his death is deeply deplored by hosts of friends outside the immediate family.
