GOLDA ETHEL HALL POLSER

Golda Ethel Hall, oldest daughter of John & Katherine Hall, was born in Jackson township July 17, 1889, and passed away at her home in Lucas Tuesday, October 24, 1961, at the age of 72 years, three months and 17 days, following a brief illness.

A life-long resident of the Lucas vicinity, Golda was married Sept. 30, 1908, to Oscar Polser of Lucas. They lived on a farm south of Lucas until 1927 when they moved to Lucas where she had since resided.

To this union five children were born; Ray and Hal of Lucas, Lillian Woods and Berniece Fuller, of Des Mones and Glenn of Fresno, Calif.

She united with the United Presbyterian church at Lucas and was a long-time member of the Ladies Aid, working with it as long as her health permitted.

She was a kind and loving mother and a helpful neighbor who will be greatly missed by all who knew her.

Golda was preceded in death by her husband in February, 1946; and by her parents and one brother, Bert Hall of Chariton.

She is survived by five children, three daughters-in-law, two sons-in-law, nine grandchildren, five great-grandchildren, four brothers and six sisters.

Funeral services were held Oct. 26 at 2 p.m., at the Beardsley-Fielding Funeral Home, the Rev. E. Vester Chance officiating. Interment was in the Goshen cemetery.
