ROSA VARGA, daughter of FRANCIS and MARY VARGA, was born in Leon, Iowa, August 7, l865. Died at her home in Leon, February 25, l923, aged 57 years, 6 months and l8 days.

With indulgent parents, her girlhood days were sunshine and free from care. A favorite with her associates, her school days were as a cloudless sky.

She united with the Presbyterian Church of Leon, April 8, l886, remaining a member thereof to the close of life.
She united in marriage with BYRON F. HAMILTON, October l3, l887. To this union were born three children, HELEN MOORE, of Mildred, Colorado; SAMUEL HAMILTON, and RUTH HAMILTON, both of Leon. She is survived by her husband, three children, a brother and four sisters, whose hearts will echo the wail, "Oh, for the touch of a hand that has vanished; the sound of a voice that is still."

The funeral service was held from the Presbyterian Church, Wednesday afternoon, February 28th, conducted by E.A. Place. Interment was in the Leon Cemetery.
