 The Van Wagoner Family a Genealogy by Philo Van Wagoner pg 98



Lasting fragrance of a life that has flown.

At the hour of ten last Saturday morning, while love kept vigil by her couch of

pain and breathed sweet benedictions on her brow, there passed away the gentle

spirit of one whose life was the embodiment of noble young womanhood, and whose

gracious impulses touched every phase of humanity --Miss Ida Banta, daughter of

Mrs. and Mrs. Wm. Banta.

Miss Banta was a Christian, not in name only, But upon that higher plane that

demonstrates those virtues in a harmonious, beautiful life.  A life--the memory

of which gleams like a thread of gold through the dismal warp and woof of this

old world--her name will not be forgotten for it will live in the affectionate

regard of all who knew her, and grow greater in the good results which will

follow.  

Additional Comments:
Daughter of William Hollister Banta and Elva June Van Wagoner
