Bio
Aug 3,1917 Atkinson Graphic DEATH OF H J STANSBERRY Henry J Stansberry was born at Modale, Iowa, March 4,1880 and died Saturaday, July 28,1917 in Norfolk. He came to Nebraska in early manhood, perhaps at the age of 16 or 17 years. June 9,1909 he was married to Miss Emma Sjoland and to this union was born five children. In their earlier married life Mr and Mrs Stansberry lived upon a farm in the Phoenix neighborhood. Five years ago they came to Atkinson, which has been their home since. For the past three years he has filled the position of chief of police and water commissioner for the city and a more faithful officer and public servant would be hard to find. He has not been well for sometime and upon the 5th of July decided to go to a hospital for relief. At Norfolk there was an operation for appendicitis which was pronounced to be a very serious case. All that medical science could do was at hand, but the operation was put off too long. The end came Saturday morning at 1 o’clock. Mr Stansberry leaves a devoted wife and four children. One baby, a girl, having died in infancy. There survives him a father, W W Stansberry of Coucil Bluffs, Iowa, his grandfather Henry Stansberry of Marshalltown, Iowa, a brother William Stansberry of Canada, two cousins, Mrs Nelson H Ames and Mr Edwin West of Atkinson. In his death the family has lost a devoted husband and father, the city a faithful and efficient officer and the community mourn an honest and accommodating neighbor. Perhaps the saddest feature of his untimely departure was the fact that he leaves his wife sick in her bed with an infant but a week old. The funeral service was held in the Methodist Church Sunday, July 29, attended by a large number of friends. The Masonic order conducted the service. The Atkinson Fire Department attended the service in uniform. Mr Stansberry was a member in good and regular standing in the IOOF of Atkinson. He was laid to rest in Woodlawn Cemetery by those he had served so faithfully. There to wait for the voice that will bring forth every man according as his works shall be.
