Mrs. S. S. Taber

Mrs. S. S. Taber, a resident of Fix Ridge for many years, died in an American Falls hospital December 29, following an operation of a few days previous. Mrs. Taber had gone to American Falls to spend the holidays with her daughter, Miss Thelma Davis, who is taking nurses training at the hospital there. On December 23 Mrs. Taber was taken ill and was removed to the hospital, where a few days later she underwent a major operation. While the operation was said to have been a success, death was due to a blood-clot around the heart. Evelyn Ruth Davies was born in England, October 19, 1887. She came to Canada in 1917, where she met and married a Mr. Davis. To this union one daughter, Thelma, was born. Mr. and Mrs.. Davis came to Spokane, where Mr. Davis died during the flu epidemic of 1918. Later Mrs. Davis and young daughter came to Juliaetta and was employed by Mr. Taber to take care of his first wife and his mother, both of whom later passed away, after which she continued to be employed by Mr. Taber as housekeeper and in 1923 they were united in marriage. To this union one son, Rex, was born, who, with her daughter Thelma, survives, as does her widower, S. S. Taber. Aside from her two children she had no blood relatives in America, but leaves many in England, including her father. Mrs. Taber was a woman beloved by everyone who knew her. She was a loving wife and a good mother, in fact a desired resident for any community. Funeral services were held in the United Brethren church at Juliaetta on Sunday, January 9, the sermon being delivered by Rev. George Calvert. Burial was made in the Fix Ridge cemetery.

John George Dennler

John George Dennier, was born June 6, 1841 in Alsace Lorraine, and departed from this life January 17, 1938, at the age of 96 years, six months and 11 days. He was united in marriage to Miss Katherine Walthers in 1871. To this union four children were born. They came to America in 1891 and settled in Iowa. In the year 1900 they came to Juliaetta and settled on Fix Ridge, where he had since resided, with the exception of a few years of infirmity, spent on Potlatch ridge. In infancy he was enrolled as a member of the Lutheran church by the Holy Right of baptism. In early youth he attended the religious school of the land and took the confirmation vows. In Iowa he took a leading part in organizing and maintaining a mission congregation, as he also did in Idaho. He was ever a loyal supporter of the Juliaetta Zion church. He was a special friend of his pastors, and remembered them generously. In the last years of failing health he was unable to take an active interest and part in the church work. He was bereft of his first wife Feb. 7, 1905, after a lingering illness. In 1906 he was united in marriage to a widow, Mrs. Katherine Hedler (nee Nicklas) who passed away quite suddenly Oct. 10, 1908. Two of his children also preceded him from this life, his son, David, and daughter, Susan Giese. Survivors are his son, George, and daughter, Mrs. Magdelena ZumHofe; together with 25 grandchildren and 11 great-grandchildren. The interment took place Wednesday, January 19, with the Rev. E. E. Krebs of the Lutheran church officiating. Pall bearers were six of his grandchildren. Interment was in the Fix Ridge cemetery.
