Funeral Rites For Velma South Funeral services were held Tuesday, Jan. 15, 11 a.m. at the Henderson United Methodist church for Mrs. Velma Evans South, daughter of Elmer and Jennie Asell Evans. Her childhood was spent in the Henderson area where she grew to womanhood. Dr. South, a young veterinarian, had established his practice in Henderson. He joined the U.S. Cavalry, and was stationed at Ft. Sill, Okla. He sent for Velma, and she boarded the train in Henderson, arrived in Lawton, Okla., where they were married on Oct. 24, 1918. Following his service in World War I, they returned to Henderson to make their home. To this union one daughter was born, Barbara South, who is now a civil service employee, serving as an entertainment director for the Army, stationed near Kaiserslautern, Germany.
Velma South was an active member of the Henderson United Methodist Church, the Legion Auxiliary, Order of the Eastern Star, and the B.Y.K. Club, a local social group, of which the Charter Members were mostly old school friends. She took great interest in all community affairs, but her main interest centered in her home and family, she was a natural homemaker, gracious and unpretentious. She gave loving care to her parents in their last illnesses, and to her husband after his health failed. His death occurred December 1955; an only brother also preceded her in death.
Left to mourn her passing are her daughter Barbara; sister, Mrs. Juanita Melindy, Co. Bluffs, nieces, Mrs. Patricia. Holt, Mrs. Joan Bolton, Mrs. Betty Wright and Mrs. Virginia Nebola; nephews, Jim and David Blauvelt, sister-in-law, Mrs. Lela Blauvelt; brother-in-law, Levi South.
The Rev. David Nolle officiated, with Miss Mary Jane Steiner at the organ, as she accompanied Mrs. Wanda Williams as she sang, "In the Garden" and "Jesus Savior, Pilot Me." Mrs. Morris Harbor was in charge of the memorial book. Ushers were: Russell Asell and Max Stonebreaker. Caring for the flowers, Mrs. Leo Boileau, Mrs. E.N. Brown, Harry Paul, Glen Brown and Herman Coppock.
Interment was in the Farm Creek Cemetery with arrangements by McKee Funeral Home. Relatives from a distance attending funeral services for Mrs. Velma South were: Miss Barbara South, Kaiserslautin, Germany; Rev. and Mrs. Snow, Ellsworth, Minn.; Mr. and Mrs. Levi South, Harold Nobola, Massena; Mrs. Juanita Melindy, Mrs. Joan Bolton and family, Mrs. Betty Wright and family, all of Co. Bluffs; the Jim Holt family, Knoxville; James Blauvelt, Kentucky; Mrs. Beth Johnston, Trimble, Mo.; and a long time friend, Miss Martha Artist from Omaha, Mrs. Nina Phelps and Mrs. Rhea Sowers, Red Oak.
