"Asleep in Yahshua! Blessed sleep, from which none ever waked to weep! Tis a calm and undisturbed repose. Not unbroken by the last of foes.&nbsp; Asleep in Yahshua! 0 how sweet to be for such a slumber sleep! With holy confidence to sing, that death hath lost its venom sting.&nbsp; Asleep in Yahshua is a peaceful rest. Whose waking is supremely blest! No fear, no woe, shall dim that hour. That manifests the Savior's power.&nbsp; Asleep in Yahshua! 0 for me may such a blissful refuge be!&nbsp; Securely shall my ashes lie and wait the summons from on high."&nbsp; &nbsp;By: Margaret Mackay

Hanshew.&nbsp; the two just celebrated their 70th wedding anniversary.&nbsp; Together they raised four children:&nbsp; Ronald, Kathy, Debra, and Annett.

In their early years, they lived in many locations before making their permanent home in Ansley.&nbsp; Elaine was very active in her community, so well-known it was said that there was no one she did not know.&nbsp; She worked at the hotel in Ansley until the hotel closed.&nbsp; After that she went to work for Shada's IGA, also in Ansley.&nbsp; In 1980, she was offered the opportunity to be the Director of the Prairie Pioneer Center in Broken Bow, Nebraska where she worked until she retired in 2001.&nbsp; She loved working with her seniors, making memories and taking annual bus trips.
