OBITUARY
...Joshua Florea, son of John and Elizabeth Florea, was born Feb. 29, 1844 and passed to his reward Jan. 18, 1926. He was of a family of fourteen children all of whom have passed away except two sisters, Mrs. M. Q. Turner, of New Vienna, Ohio, and Mrs. David McDermoth (McDermit) of Lawshe, Ohio.
He was born near the town then called New Port, in Adams County, Ohio, where he grew to manhood. On the 18th of September 1865, he was married to Mary S.(usan) Peterson, who preceded him in death two and one-half years. They resided in Ohio until the autumn of 1868 when they came to Worth County, Mo., near Blockton, Ia., where they continued to reside until bereft of his companion, since then he made his home with the children near the old home. He was the father of ten children---six sons and four daughters—all of whom survive. Namely: Mrs. Chas. S. Cobb, Blockton; A. E. Florea, Thedford, Nebr.; J. N. Florea, Alton, Mo., Mrs. Geo. Glenn and Mrs. A. L. Goff, Irena, Mo.; L. R. Florea, Leona, Kansas; W. G. Florea, F. L. Florea, Mrs. J. L. Hall and B. A. Florea, Blockton. All with twenty-nine grandchildren, twelve great grandchildren, a great number of relatives, and a host of friends, mourn his departure.
...Early in life he became obedient to the Gospel, lived faithful to the (closing?) and died in the triumph of a living faith. He united with the church at Newport, Ohio, and when he came to Worth County, placed his membership with a congregation (located) at Isadora and afterward united with the church at Pleasant Ridge (words illegible) September, 1898, he became a charter member of the Church of Christ at Tent Chapel, was ordained an elder and continued until death. It was through his efforts the congregation was established. His home was one of hospitality and many faithful preachers have partaken of its blessings.
Thus marks the passing of another pioneer of good ripe old age, as a ripe sheaf for the garner, whose pilgrimage covered the period of 81 years, 10 months and 18 days.
...The funeral services were conducted at Tent Chapel on Wednesday, Jan. 20, by L. R. Cobb of Bedford. The pallbearers were Will, Charles, Albert, Denver, Samuel and Delbert Florea, of Nodaway County, Mo., nephews of the deceased. After the service the remains were laid to rest in the Tent Chapel cemetery to await the resurrection. Blockton News, Thursday, January 28, 1926 (p. 1) (Source: Find A Grave Memorial# 16631808)
