Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII" ***INTERESTING INDEED! Film #24848 May 20, 1943 Thursday, News Herald...Hillsboro, Ohio MRS. IDA E. VANCE (AUG 25-1880 MAY 9-1943) "Death is only an old door Set in a garden wall; On gentle hinges it give At dusk when the thrushes call. Beyond the light lies still; Many weary and willing feet Pass over the old door's sill. So there's nothing to trouble any heart; Nothing to hurt at all, For death is only an old door Set in a garden wall." Ida E. Luck was born in Dodsonville, Ohio, on August 25, 1880, and passed to her eternal home at the Hillsboro Hospital on May 9, 1943, aged 63 years, 8 months and nine days. She was married to Ben B. Vance on February 26, 1903, and to this union was born one daughter, Mrs. Harold Sonner. Mrs. Vance leaves her husband, daughter, granddaughter, Alice Marie Daughtry, her aged mother, Mrs. Ethel Van Winkle, and one brother, John Luck of Lynchburg; and one brother-in-law E. W. Ireland, of Chicago, and the son-in-law, Harold Sonner. Many other relatives, neighbors and friends are left to mourn the passing of their loved one, their Christian friend. Mrs. Vance joined the Christian Church in Hillsboro by letter in 1917 during the ministry of the Rev. Samuel Traum. She was a faithful member of that congregation, always in attendance when her health permitted. "We cannot say and we will not say That she is dead, She is just away. With a cheery smile and a wave of the hand. She has wandered into an unknown land. And left us dreaming how very fair It needs must be since she lingers there. And you, on you who the wildest yearn For an old times step and a glad return. Think of her faring on as dear In the love of there as the love of here. Think of her still as the same, I say. For she is not dead. She is just away.
