PHEIL, Effie S. BUTTON 1873 - 1928

Death has again entered our midst and taken from us a loving wife and mother. 
Effie Button Pheil, daughter of Edward T. and Mary E. Button, was born July 30, 
1873, near Concord, Callaway county, Mo. When about seven years of age her 
family moved to Henry county. Then in young womanhood she moved with her 
family to Boone county. She was united in marriage to William O. Pheil near 
Centralia, Missouri, December 13, 1888. They moved to Henry county just south 
of Calhoun. To this union eight children were born. One son dying in infancy. The 
other seven with the beloved husband and one brother are left to mourn their 
great loss. the children are: Mary, now Mrs. J. W. Bradley of Calhoun; Ernest and 
Ada, now Mrs. Herman Tubbesing of Clinton; Isaac, Laura, Gordon and Louise who 
are still at home. She united with the Presbyterian church in Calhoun, August 30, 
1908, and since that time there has been no truer Christian. She has always tried 
to live so as to meet her Savior in Heaven. She always told the children to live so 
as to meet her in heaven. She was a kind and loving mother, a companion and a 
true friend. To know her was to love her. She was always the happiest when she 
could do something for others. She was also a member of the royal Neighbors 
lodge. Mrs. Pheil had been in very poor health for over a year. She fell gently 
asleep in Jesus at her home just south of Calhoun, Wednesday, April 4, 1928 at 
4:30 p.m., being 54 years, 8 months, and 4 days of age. The funeral service was 
conducted at 2:30 at the Presbyterian church by Rev. Frazier of Walker assisted 
by Rev. Holland and Rev. Faulkner of the Calhoun Methodist and Baptist churches. 
The body was laid to rest in the Calhoun cemetery beneath a wealth of flowers.
