Ida Augusta Stickman was born in Germany April 10, 1866, and passed from this life to the life beyond January 11, 1918, aged 51 years 9 months and 1 day. She came to Butler county, Iowa, at the age of two years. She also lived in Bremer county for some time and then came to Chickasaw county, where she has lived since. She had lived in Nashua for the last seven years. In 1883 she was married to Frank Moine.

For over 34 years they have labored together. Two sons, Louis and Fred of Nashua, and two daughters, Mrs. Minnie Tucker of Petterson, Iowa, and Mrs. Violet Palmer of Montour, Iowa, were born to this couple and with the father and husband mourn the sudden death of a loving mother and true wife. Five sisters and two brothers sorrow in the loss of a sister. These are Fred Stickman of Ionia, Mrs. J.H. Eckstein and Mrs. Wallace James of Nashua, Mrs. Rolland Shope of Osage and Mrs. Earl Bray and Charles Stickman of Waterloo, and Mrs. Walter Bruce of Mason City. A brother Frank and her father and mother preceded her in death.

Mrs. Moine first became a member of the Baptist church and after quite a number of years united with the Church of Christ at Republic, where she has been a member for eight years. All of her children and her husband are church members. She was a women with many friends and an exceptionaly loving and good mother.

She was much given to counseling her children in prayer. Mrs. Moine had been sick for many years but not an invalid, and went away some for her health, visiting Excelsior Springs, Mo.
