FRYLING OBITUARIES, Henry County, Missouri ==================================================================== FRYLING, Lois COMBS 1862 - 1928 Clinton MO 1928 - At 8:30 a.m. Monday, July 2, the spirit of Mrs. W. H. Fryling left its earthly abode to dwell in the land of the blessed. This dear wife and mother had been in poor health the past several years, having strokes of paralysis at different times. On Wednesday, June 20, the fatal stroke came, and she was unable to talk from that time on. Her death came as though closing her eyes in sleep. The husband and children were with her constantly during her last illness, ministering to her every want, and they with physician and others who loved her, did everything possible for human hands to do to prolong her stay on earth, but God had called for her. Deceased's maiden name was Lois Combs, she being a daughter of W. H. and Elizabeth Ewing Combs, who emigrated from Clark county, Mo., to Henry county in 1851. They were among the oldest settlers in this county, residing eight miles east of Clinton, where Mrs. Fryling was born on September 19, 1862. In the year 1879, she was united in marriage with W. H. Fryling, they locating on the Combs homestead east of town, where they resided until coming to Clinton in 1917. This happy union was blessed with three children, all living to comfort the lonely companion. They are: Mrs. A. B. Munday and Mrs. E. H. Loft, both of Sedalia, and Curtis Fryling, at the home. She is also survived by one sister, Mrs. C. D. Hutcherson, of Hepler, Kans., who was here for a week during Mrs. Fryling's illness, and one brother, W. H. Combs, of Gilman City, Mo.; also two grandchildren - Pauline Munday and Jack Loft. Mrs. Fryling had been a member of the Baptist church for many years. A gentle spirit has gone on, one that was kind to everybody. Her influence will be ever felt. She gave herself, on all occasions, unstintingly to her Lord, her home, her neighbors. Her home was ever open to all with its real Christian hospitality. It can be truly said that she was loved by all who knew her. The ladies of the different organizations of the church were always glad whenever a meeting was to be held in her home, as she made it so pleasant for them. She was of a quiet, unassuming nature, but so willing to help in any way. She loved flowers, and her yard and garden contained some of the most choice kind, as well as potted plants in the house. These she unselfishly shared with neighbors and friends. It can be said of her, that she has fought a good fight she has finished her course, she has kept the faith and there was laid up for her a crown of righteousness. Her numerous friends grieve with the husband and children in this time of deep sorrow. Funeral services were conducted at the home, at 320 North 3rd street, at 2:30 p.m. Tuesday, by her pastor, Rev. J. R. Blythe. Burial was in Englewood cemetery. ==================================================================== USGENWEB NOTICE: In keeping with our policy of providing free information on the Internet, data may be used by non-commercial entities, as long as this message remains on all copied material.
