OBITUARY
Hannah Sabina Hommon was born in Franklin County, Penn. Oct. 14, 1842. Her parents removed to Illinois when she was quite young. On June 16, 1868, she was married to Howard J. Dubbs at Henderson, Illinois. One son, Ora Dubbs, was born to them.
In 1878 they came west to Iowa, then in 1879 on to Kansas, where they located near Ransom. In that pioneer home many a weary traveler realized the meaning of true hospitality. About seven years were spent in California, then they returned to Ransom, where the home has existed for twenty-five years.
January 18, 1898 Mrs. Dubbs was baptized and entered into fellowship with the church of Christ at Ransom, where she has since continued faithful although physically unable to attend services.
On Oct. 6, 1913 Howard Dubbs departed to the better land, and Aunt Sibbie, although a little lonely, but always brave and cheerful, kept the home fires burning, until at 8 p.m. Feb. 2, 1922, she departed this life at the ripe age of 79 years, 3 months and 18 days. She leaves to miss her, one son, Orra V., eight grandchildren, and two great grandsons; three sisters, Mrs. Mary Btuckburn, Dexter, Iowa, Mrs. Agnes Adams and Mrs. Catherine Owens, Santa Cruz, California, besides a host of friends in Ransom and vicinity.
Funeral services were held at the church of Christ at Ransom, Kas. Feb 4, 1922 at two o’clock. Rev. J.W. Vanderlip preached a helpful and comforting sermon and Bro. Briggs assisted in conducting the service. Burial was in the Ransom Cemetery beside her husband.
“O still, white face of perfect peace
Untouched by passion, freed from pain,
He who ordained that work should cease
Took to Himself the ripened grain.
Of human care you left no trace
No lightest trace of grief or pain.
On earth an empty form and face
In Heaven stands the ripened grain.”
