                             Greta Endres

Greta Endres, age 98, of Nashville, MI, formerly of Freeport passed away Monday 
Feb. 7, 2022 at Spectrum Pennock Hospital in Hastings.

Greta was born in Hastings on January 20, 1924, a daughter of the late Ilene 
(Gillespie) and William Cogswell.

Greta was raised in the Hasting's area and attended local schools graduating 
from Hastings High School. She continued her education at Western Michigan 
University where she graduated with a bachelors degree in education. After 
finishing her education, Greta and a few of her friends packed up and headed to 
Florida, where they tried out for an all women's major league baseball team.

When Greta returned home, she began teaching at a one room school house just 
outside Hastings before being married to Benjamin Endres. Greta willingly left 
her profession to work alongside her husband to established the family farm in 
the Freeport area, where they raised their family together.

Greta loved the "farm life", and enjoyed helping her son train Boston Terrier 
dogs for 4-H and other K-9 competitions. She also loved her horses and spending 
time on Algonquin Lake. Greta's greatest joy was taking care of her family. In 
her spare time, she enjoyed an afternoon fishing with her husband.

Greta is survived by her son, Darrel (Ronda) Endres; 10 grandchildren and 13 
great-grandchildren.

She was receded in death by her beloved husband, Benjamin in 2001; her son, Dan 
Endres; her great-grandson Austin, along with five sisters and two brothers.
