Decatur County Journal
November l2, l903
"Boast not thyself of tomorrow for thou knowest not what a day may bring
forth." This is not only the language of scripture but it is the
language in which every day experience expresses itself as well. A
single day may not be long but it is long enough for death to play
sad
havoc, as we find in this present instance. AGGIE VENNROBLE was born
in
Richmond, Ray County, Mo., on April 2, l850, and died at her late
residence in Leon, Iowa, November 7, l903, being 53 years, 7 months
and
5 days old. Her early life was spent in her native state. In the year,
l872, on the 25th day of December, she was united in marriage to ROBERT
GOOD.
When 27 years of age, she united with the M.E. Church of which she has
been a consistent member until her death. In the year, l875, the
deceased, with her family, located in Leon. MRS. GOOD has always
enjoyed the respect and confidence of the community in which she lived.
Her Christian character has been irreproachable. Her kindness of heart
and charitableness of disposition has brought cheer to many hearts
in
distress. For many years she has been an invalid but death came
nevertheless suddenly and unexpectedly. She ceased at once to live
and
went to be with God. May the influence of her life prove a benediction
to all who know and loved her.
Funeral services were conducted by Rev. I.N. Woodward of the M.E. Church
on Sunday, Nov. 8th. The remains were carried to their last resting
place in the Leon Cemetery by members of the Grand Army Post.
