DEATH OF MRS. DRESSLER
 
It was indeed with saddened hearts that the neighbors and friends of Mrs. 
Esther L. Dressler received the announcement that the death angel has summoned 
her to the great beyond.  In her passing Payette loses one of those spiritual 
souls which scatter sunshine wherever they go, and we will all miss her and 
the loving kindness and gentleness.
 
Esther Lois Kelley was born in Elkhart, Indiana, August 27, 1858.  She was 
united in marriage to Josiah Freeman Dressler October 7, 1880.  In 1882 they 
moved to Central City, Nebraska.  Here two daughters were born:  Frankie 
Dressler Watts and Mildred Esther Dressler.
 
Her first year in Nebraska she united with the Methodist Episcopal church, of 
which she has since been a faithful member, and was an earnest worker until a 
few weeks ago when her health began to fail.
 
In 1906 they came to Payette, Idaho, where she lived until her death, March 5, 
1928, at the age of 69 years, 6 months and 8 days.  Two years ago her husband 
preceded her to the other world.
 
Surviving her are her two daughters, eight grandchildren and one sister, 
Francis S. Kelley, of Salt Lake City, Utah.
 
Funeral services were held at the Methodist church Wednesday afternoon at 
2:30, and were conducted by her pastor, Rev. V. E. Hall.  Interment took place 
at Riverside cemetery where she was laid to rest beside the husband who 
awaited her coming.
 
CARD OF THANKS
We wish to express our heartfult thanks to the neighbors and friends who so 
kindly assisted us inour recent bereavement and for the beautiful floral 
offerings.
Mrs. Frankie Watts and Children, Mildred Dressler, Frances S. Kelley
