MRS. J. B. ALBIN, Nancy Isabell Loveall, daughter of James and Elizabeth Loveall was born August 31, 1870, at Chilhowee, Mo. She departed this life at the home at Neosho Rapids, Sunday, October 23, 1938, age 68 years, 1 month, 23 days.
She was united in marriage to John Bunyan Albin, August 13, 1889. To this union 12 children were born. Three preceded her in death, Leslie and Wilbur, who died in infancy and Elsie in 1918.
In the spring of 1882, she and her husband, came to Kansas in a covered wagon, locating on a farm north of Toledo. They purchased a farm and lived there until five years ago when they moved to Neosho Rapids.
Her health failed in October, 1936, and she has been practically blind the last year.
She has shown remarkable patience, never complaining during all her illness. She was very devoted to her home and children. Death held no fears for her as she was ready to go.
She leaves to mourn her passing, her husband, seven sons, Clarence, Robert and John Albin of Saffordville; Albert Albin of Diamond Springs; Leland Albin of Emporia; James Albin of Wilsey and Lloyd of the home. Two daughters, Flora of the home and Mrs. James Veal of Diamond Springs. Two sisters, Mrs. Will Robinson and Mrs. John Bowers of Stroud, Okla.; two brothers, Robert Loveall, Chilhowee, Mo., and Thomas Loveall, Stroud, Okla.; twelve grandchildren, three great-grand children and a host of other relatives and friends.
The poem "Beautiful Hands"', was read at her funeral.
"Beautiful Hands"
Such beautiful, beautiful hands; They're neither white nor small, And you I know, would scarcely think
That they were fair at all.
I've looked at hands whose form and hue
A sculptor’s dream might be
Yet are these aged wrinkled hands Most beautiful to me.
But out beyond the shadowy lands
Where all is bright and fair,
I know full well these dear old hands
Will palms of Victory bear;
When crystal streams, through endless years,
Flow over golden sands,
And where the old are young again,
I’ll clasp my Mother’s hands.
