united in marriage to I. [ra] A. Hindman, and to this union four children were born, as follows: Retta, Hershel and Hubert who have preceded her in death, and Harry who is living in Chicago. Those left to mourn her departure are
her husband, I. [ra] A. Hindman

five brothers and one sister. Mrs.
Hindman leaves many other
relatives and kind friends. Mrs.
Hindman was baptized and received
into the Methodist church at the age of 18 years. Mrs. Hindman
has not enjoyed good health for many months past, and while her friends
realized this situation, yet her death came as more or less of a shock to them
all. The sympathy of this
community will go out to Mr. Hindman and his family at this time.

every comfort and care and will have many very pleasant memories of the love
that she returned for the love and loving care they gave.

and departed this life from her home near Bedford, Iowa, on the 12th
day of April, 1929, at the age of 72 years, 1 month and 10 days. In the year 1857, before she was 1 year

Mr. and Mrs. Goudie was the celebrating of their fiftieth wedding anniversary
on November 15, 1926. Mr. and Mrs.
Goudie have been married for over 52 years. We all appreciate the wonderful work that the Rev.
William A. [lfred] Goudie is
doing at Kodiak, Alaska. Brother

ever done on the Baptist Mission field at Kodiak, Alaska. Our hearts go out in sympathy to Rev.
Goudie in his far away home.

a young man he joined the Bedford Baptist Church and transferred his membership

was a kind and loving husband, father, brother and friend, with thoughts of
others first, and self last; being patient in his illness without complaints of
any kind; as medical science and loving hands did all that could be done for his
physical needs. He will be sadly
missed by all who knew and loved him.

Marie Lucas Larison
Marie
Lucas Larison, age 95 years and 7
months, was born June 13, 1902 at Parnell, Missouri to parents Roy and [Lena]
Pearl [Stutesman] Lucas. She died on January 13, 1998 at the
Bedford Nursing and Rehab Center, Bedford, Iowa, where she had lived about the
last year of her life.
She
grew to maturity in the Bedford community, attended the local school, and was
baptized and became a member of the First Baptist Church of Bedford in
1920. The only other person to
have a longer membership is her husband, Estel, who became a member in 1917.
On
July 2, 1923 she was united in marriage to Estel Larison at Bedford, Iowa. Besides being a homemaker, she taught
at the Rural School Level for nine years, after having spent a year at Normal
School Training. They lived at
their 404 King Street address of Bedford for 45 years, until moving to the
Bedford Manor in February 1997.
To
this union four children were born, Dale Larison of Moline, Illinois; Dwight Larison, now deceased, and formerly of Kansas City,
Missouri; Harlan Larison of
LeeÕs Summit, Missouri and one daughter, Janet Larison, who died at six months of age.
She
was preceded in death by her parents, Roy and Pearl Lucas, three brothers, Kenneth, Max and Ivan Lucas; one son, Dwight Larison; one daughter, Janet Larison and one grandchild, Brad Larison.
Left
to cherish her memory are her husband Estel Larison of Bedford, brothers Vane and Ronald Lucas, both of Bedford, and sisters Vadonna Price and Doris OÕDell, both of the Bedford Nursing Home of Bedford, son Dale and wife Joan Larison; Harlan and wife Twyla Larison; grandchildren Philip Larison, Mark Larison,
Stan Larison, and Lisa Larison
Hallier; great grandchildren, Jacob
Larison, Grant Larison and many
nieces and nephews.
Besides
being a long time member of the Baptist Church, which included involvement in
the Baptist WomenÕs Ministries, she was also a member of the Rebekah Lodge and
the Twentieth Century Club.
Marie
loved crafts, which provided opportunity for many handmade cards, which used
previously pressed flowers. She
enjoyed painting, sewing, crocheting, quilting and tatting. She made many afghans, but none were as
special as those received by each of her own boys.
Many
fond memories are remembered of the Sunday Lucas family get togethers. Although the Lucas home might rotate,
there would always be plenty of food and card games such as Pitch to follow. These games could get pretty excited,
especially for the kids who watched, wondering if the adults had any control
left at all. There would always be
as well the traditional Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners at Grandpa and
Grandma LarisonÕs home. Marie was
noted as a good cook and baker. It
was remembered that once a young grandson noted an empty cookie jar upon
arriving at grandmaÕs house. This
was truly an abnormal emergency that was soon rectified upon the lament of the
young loved one.
Speaking
of her love and preferential affection for her grandkids, one day a dirty mangy
looking cur followed Stan back
to Grandpa and GrandmaÕs house from downtown. They took the time to wash up this stray, only to find that
it was a white dog, which was then named Snowflake. When an owner was not to be found, it became a
permanent part of the family at Grandpa and GrandmaÕs home. Even though none of the farm animals
had ever made it into the house, Snowflake had this great privilege, even
enjoying specially made biscuits and gravy for its happy palette.
This
loving home all came about because of a wink. One day Estel
happened to be lounging around at the StingleyÕs Grocery Store in Sheridan,
Missouri. It was this day that he
noticed a young woman, who he later found out to be Marie Lucas, and he gave her a wink. That was the beginning of a tender love
that endured for 74 years, after a courtship that meant many miles of traveling
by buggy just to see her.
She
was a kind and considerate wife, mother, sister, grandmother and great
grandmother, and will be missed by all who knew and loved her.
A
memorial is being established in her name at the Bedford State Savings Bank.

George W. Larison
George
W. Larison, son of Enoch and
Cathryn [Smith] Larison, was born
on a farm near Bedford, Iowa, on December 29, 1863, and departed this life from
his home in Bedford, Ia., on November 27th, 1932, at the age of 68
years, 11 months and 7 days.
He
grew to manhood in this community, and in the year 1910 on the 30th
day of March he was united in marriage to Miss Clara Spencer, Mrs. Larison having preceded him in death on
April 3, 1928. Since that
time he has been living with his brother, John Larison, of this place.
Those
who are left to mourn his departure are his two brothers, John Larison, of Bedford, and Dave Larison, of Olympia, Washington. Four nephews and three nieces in
addition to those above mentioned are also left to mourn his departure. Also a large number of relatives and
admiring friends.
Brother
Larison united with the Baptist church at East Mission 35 years ago, and was a
member in good and regular standing of the First Baptist Church in Bedford at
the time of his death.
He
had been a faithful member of the Odd Fellows Lodge in Bedford in good and
regular standing for about 30 years and was a member at the time of his death.
Brother
Larison has been a faithful citizen of this community for more than 68 years,
during which time he was engaged in the farming profession. He was a township trustee of Bedford
Township for 9 years. He was
without doubt one of BedfordÕs most upstanding citizens and a man with many
very warm friends and no enemies.
Few men leave this world with so many singing words of praise as has
been contributed to brother George.
On
the 23rd day of last November he was taken seriously ill, and for
one year and seven days he has suffered continually with very few days free
from pain. But the remarkable fact
relative to the entire situation, he never complained, took all the suffering
and pain like unto a brave soldier of Jesus Christ that he was. Kind hands were ever ready to serve him
and help in easing his pain and making him happy. He has been given every care that a man could possibly
receive from the hands of those who loved him. Friends came by the hundreds to visit him during his long
illness; only two days passed in that time without someone calling on him. He fought a courageous battle against
pain and human suffering, but at last the battle against uneven odds gave way
to the death angelÕs visit, and as the LordÕs Day was drawing to a close he
ceased to struggle, the end came and he fell asleep.
Funeral
services were held Tuesday at 2 oÕclock p. m., at the First Baptist church with
Rev. C. M. Crowell preaching the sermon.
Interment was made in Fairview cemetery.
