IRENE WAYNE Irene E. Wayne was born at Woodbine, Iowa, July 28, 1892, and departed this life, Feb. 28, 1922, at the age of 29 years, and 7 months. She was cut down in the prime of life, but no age is immune to the attack of death. Now we are reminded again if the words of St. James when he declares "What is queer life? It is even a vapor that appeareth for a little while and then vanisheth away." Death never waits for our revelation to make its abode. At the age of three she came with her parents to Idaho. A year later they moved to Kansas. From here they returned to Idaho when the deceased was 9 years of age, and this has since been her home. She was happily married to Henry Samuel Wayne, Nov. 17, 1907, who still survives and is keenly sensible of his loss. To this union seven children were born, two having died in infancy. The living are Minta aged 11, Herbert 9, Ruth 8, Velma 5, and Argyl 2. Many other relatives and friends survive, among them Mr. and Mrs. Abrams, the parents, and two sisters, one at Star, and Alma Lee at home. To all these and the friends the hour is dark but the sweet hope of the Christian is indeed comforting. "We shall meet beyond the river". But while these things are true, still in this once happy home, a vacant chair sits at the hearth stone. The deceased was known as one who was genial in temperment, kindly in disposition, and a loving wife and tender mother. She was a member of the Church of God and suffered and died with the comfort of Jesus in her heart. Heaven is now her home. "There grief is turned to pleasure Such pleasure as below No human voice can call better And after fleshly weakness And after this world's night And after storm and whirlwinds And calm and joy and light." Funeral services took place from the Baptist Church of Payette, on the afternoon of March 2, 1922, conducted by Rev. Argyl Houser.
