ASHINHURST, Iris Nadine 1929 - 1941

Clinton Eye, Thurs, Oct 23 1941 - Nadine Ashinhurst died October 13, 1941, at 
the Clinton Community Clinic, following an operation Sunday for acute 
appendicitis. This had been her first attack, and her loved ones had no warning 
that the Death Angel stood so near. Iris Nadine, young daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Guy 
C. Ashinhurst, was born near Fairfield, in Benton County, September 17, 1929, 
later coming with her family to live near Brownington. She was in the sixth grade 
of the Brownington School. During her few short years, she was cheerfully 
obedient and sweet dispositioned, making friends with all. She was her mother's 
ever-ready assistant about the home, finding tasks to do without having to be 
told. She was the family's proud cake baker, and enjoyed sewing for her dolls or 
as readily neatly mending a tear in her own garments. She is survived by heart-
broken parents; an older sister, Geraldine; grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. J. M. 
Crabtree of Warsaw and Mrs. Mary Ashinhurst of lonia, Kansas. Funeral services 
were conducted at the Brownington Baptist Church by Rev. Hugh Sperry of Clinton 
at 10:00 a.m. October 15. Her favorite song, "Life's Evening Sun," was sung by 
Elbert Cooper, who also sang with the choir, including; Messers. Tom Rogers, 
Bryan Park, Mesdames George Hurst, Charles Reece, and Doc Taylor. Pallbearers 
were her uncles, Ernest, Marion and Leonard Crabtree, Milburn Love, Ray Hamblin 
and Elmer Ashinhurst. Flower girls were two of Nadine's schoolmates. Burial was 
at Shiloh, preceded by a short service at the church there.
