Mortuary

RUTH IRENE MUSELMAN

Ruth Irene Muselman, daughter of Benjamin and Velma Muselman, was born four miles south of Truro, Iowa, Oct. 2, 1915, and passed away at her home in Truro, Feb. 9, 1920 at the age of 4 years, 4months and 7 days, after a brief illness with scarlet fever, during which loving hands and medical aid did all in their power to relieve her suffering but God saw fit to gather another bright little flower to bloom in Heaven, and her little spirit went to God, who gave it.

Little Ruth was a sunshine in the home and to all who knew her. She always had a loving little smile for everyone. She left to mourn her loss a loving mother, sister and baby brother, whom she loved dearly, two grandfathers and two grandmothers, besides a host of relatives and friends. She will be missed by all who knew her, but will never be forgotten.

Short open air services were held at the residence, Rev. Wallace officiating, and the remains were laid to rest in the Young cemetery by the side of her father, who departed this life in December, 1918.
