She lived with her parents while a little girl but at her father’s death she went to live with her grandparents remaining with them several years, until her mother remarried, she then returned to her mother and came to Belding. On April 22, 1916, she was married to Ira D. Johnson also of Belding and to them were born three little girls, Ethelyn, Eleanor and Margaret. Theda was a kind and loving mother and a good wife and had a large circle of friends, for to know her was to love her. She endured with patience her poor health and always made the most of what life had in store for her. She leaves a husband and three little girls, a mother a half sister, a step- father, two grandfathers, a grandmother and a host of sorrowing relatives and friends to mourn their loss. “Oh, Blessed sleep that will not break, For tears nor prayers nor loves sweet sake. Oh, perfect rest that knows no pain, No throb, nor thrill, of heart or brain. Oh, life sublime beyond all speech, That only the pure thru dying reach; God understands and his ways are right Bid his beloved’s long good night.” File at: http://files.usgwarchives.net/mi/ionia/obits/j/johnson12310nob.txt This file has been created by a form at http://www.genrecords.net/mifiles/ File size: 1.8 Kb
