On the 15th day of March in the year of our Lord 2002, Alda Darlene Couzins went on to her reward in heaven. She passed away quietly at the Chico Creek Care and Rehab facility at 570 Rio Lindo Ave, here in Chico, CA. She had recently been diagnosed with a pancreatic tumor and developed pneumonia while in Enloe Medical Center. She will be cremated and her ashes interred at the Chico Cemetery on Mangrove Ave in Chico.
She was the last known grandchild of William and Angelina (Honts) Fielder. She was preceded in death by her parents Charles Stanton "Todd" Fielder (1869-1929) and Mary Carmina "Mina" (LePage) Fielder (1882-1955). She was the youngest of their ten children and the last one to pass on. Preceding her were Ethel Mae Brinton (1905-1984); Lester Byron (1907-1945); Hazel Bell Heckathorn (1910-1984); Elton William(1912-1932); Ruth Leona Snyder Essex (1914-2000); an unnamed male child (1916); twins Ernest Leroy (1917-died at birth) and Erma Louella McDougall Snyder (1917-1985) and Harold Lloyd (1922-1975).
Alda Darlene was born in Beatrice, Gage County, Nebraska, on July 2, 1925, and was a child of the depression era. Her mother, having to take care of a husband who was ill with Bright's Disease, could not take care of her, so put her out into the community in foster care. She had short stays at home with her family but she mostly lived either with relatives or people the family knew.
As a child of nine, her best friend Bernadine and her went to see a large trash fire in the neighborhood. One of the cans exploded, causing the fire to burn her hair and eyes. Even though the doctors were able to save her eyesight, she was plagued with bad eyes all her life. When in her 70s, the doctors operated on her for cataracts and gave her the best sight since her childhood. One of her greatest pleasures in life was reading.
In the early 1940s she became a Sunshine Girl with the Salvation Army Church, though she had been baptized in the faith of the Church of the Nazarene. In 2000 she began instruction in the Mormon faith, here in Chico. She did not finish her studies before she went into the skilled nursing facility. Her schooling was almost non-existent and she only went to the 6th grade.
In 1944, she met Robert Arthur Wilcox, after going with his brother Clarence for a few months. On August 19, 1944, they were married in Marysville, Marshall County, Kansas. They moved to Bridgeport, Morrill County, Nebraska and stayed there off and on the rest of their marriage, which only lasted until April of 1947. The only child Alda had as of this marriage, Martha Roseann was born on October 7, 1946, just six months before the divorce was granted.
Alda had a short marriage to Arthur Roach of Grand Island and Bridgeport, Nebraska. This marriage lasted from 1947 to about 1951 (even though they separated about 1949). Alda left Arthur and became a cook on the Panhandle Land and Livestock Company Sheep Ranch in Bushnell, Kimball County, Nebraska.
It was here that Alda met and married her last husband, Charles Edmund Couzins, the ranch foreman. They married in Raton, Colfax County, New Mexico on October 2, 1952. They remained married the rest of Charles' life, which ended January 10, 1969 in Cheyenne, Laramie County, Wyoming. He died at the Veterans Administration Hospital and was buried in the family plot, in Geneva Cemetery, Geneva, Allen County, Kansas, next to his mother, father and sister.
Alda started working at the Allen County Nursing Home as a cook's helper and dishwasher, in the summer of 1966. She stayed with them until her return to Kimball County, Nebraska in the fall of 1968. She then went to work at the Kimball Manor, a nursing home in Kimball, Nebraska. She worked at the Kimball Manor until she moved to Phoenix, Arizona in 1971. She went to work as a maid for the Ramada Inn, until the summer of ... (remainder missing).
