Father Ridenour came from Ohio to Iowa some 20 yrs ago. He was a man of many good qualities as he was loved and respected by all. Those who knew him longest and best praised him most.

His funeral was largely attended on the day after his death. Many of his neighbors and friends followed him to his last resting place. Peace be to his ashes.
