MAY, Iona May INSKEEP 1906 - 1999

Clinton Daily Democrat, Thurs, Jan 27 2000 - Iona May (Inskeep) May died 
Saturday morning, December 18, 1999, at the Clinton Healthcare and 
Rehabilitation Center. She was born in Deepwater on July 13, 1906, to James 
Delamer Inskeep and Ida May (Winn) Inskeep, and lived all her life in the Golden 
Valley, mainly in the LaDue area, where she and her husband ran a farm for many 
years. Her husband, Clyde Norman May, died in February 1980. After his death, she 
supervised the running of the family farm until her death. She is survived by her 
two children, Shirley Winifred (May) Weitzel of Buffalo and Harold Lynn May of 
Urbana; 12 grandchildren, nine great-grandchildren, many nieces, nephews, 
cousins and friends in the Golden Valley area. The family would like to 
specifically thank her niece, Marcheta Bartlett, and her family members for being 
so dedicated for so many years to Iona and her desire to stay at home, able to 
live very independently until she was 92-years-old. We also thank Kent 
Batschelett for his hard work at the farm and also helping Iona to remain in 
control for so long. She also leaves behind all the staff of the Davis R-12 School 
who were like family in their concern for her welfare. Funeral services were held 
at the Vansant-Mills Chapel on Tuesday, December 21, at 2 p.m. with Rev. Howard 
Cupp, Jr. officiating. "Amazing Grace" was sung by David L. Mills and Peggy Arthur 
with Mrs. Arthur playing the organ. Pallbearers were Perry Bartlett, Kent 
Batschelett, Jeff Weitzel, Anthony Weitzel, Scott Weitzel and Todd Weitzel. 
Burial was in the Englewood Cemetery, Clinton, under the direction of the 
Vansant-Mills Funeral Home of Clinton.
