************************
Evelyn Lorie Depoyster was born in Crete, Nebraska on November 14, 1910. When old enough she started to school and received all her schooling in the public schools of Crete. When she was thirteen years old, she was taken with that painful and treacherous disease called inflammatory rheumatism. In time, she seemed to recover from it, but, as an aftermath, was left with leakage of the heart. The condition of her heart had been a serious handicap ever since, although she made the best of the situation and had been fairly free from acute trouble until about the first of June. Since then she had suffered, more or less, and for the past two months had been confined to her home. Her condition was not considered serious until last Tuesday when she was suddenly stricken. The doctor was summoned. She was taken to St. Elizabeth Hospital in Lincoln and everything was done that could be done to restore her to consciousness and life, but she passed away about four o'clock in the afternoon. If she had lived until the fourteenth of this month, she would have been twenty-four years of age.
Evelyn was, for a number of years, a faithful attendant at Sunday school and on the fourth day of September, 1927 she united with the Grace Methodist Episcopal church of Crete on confession of Faith.
She was a lover of music and a lover of home, spending more time in her home than is usual with young people. She was often at the piano playing her favorite selections and reproducing music which she had heard. She will be greatly missed by her father and mother, brother and sister, and by other relatives and many friends.
Call not back the dear departed,
Anchored safe where storms are o'er,
On the border land we left them,
Soon to meet and part no more
When we leave this world of changes,
When we leave this world of care
We shall find our missing loved ones,
In our Father's mansion fair.
Funeral services were held Thursday at two o'clock at the Methodist church. Interment was made at Lincoln Memorial Park.
