Mellie Mosbey Mueller (Miller) Bandy
1904 was a very good year! It was the year of the St. Louis 1904 World’s Fair. It was the year that Mellie Bandy was born! She was the daughter of Emma (Brown) and Henry Mueller (Miller). She was born on November 10, 1904 as Mellie Mosbey Mueller. She departed this life on July 8, 2002 at the age of 97 having lived a strong, enduring, and caring life that spanned most of the twentieth century.
She was preceded in death by her husband, Earl Franklin Bandy, after more than 65 years of marriage. She was also preceded by two sons, Lloyd and Arnold, and by a grandson, Ronald Bandy.
She has one surviving sibling. This is her youngest sister, Lorraine Ward.
She was preceded in death by three brothers, John and George Mueller (Miller), and by Phillip, who died as a young boy. Three sisters Edith Brewer, Mary Unk, and Viola Clements also preceded her in death.
Someone commented that she must have been a good daughter because she received God’s promise of a long life. “Honor thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee. She was truly a good daughter! As a young teenager, she was called upon to remain at home where her help was needed with family. She did not get to complete her eighth grade school year. As an adult, she spent two periods of her life caring for her aging mother and her aged mother-in-law.
She was a loving wife and mother, and is survived by five children. Her four surviving sons are Francis Bandy and wife, Liz; Willard “Bill” Bandy and wife, Barbara; Roy Calvin Bandy and wife, Joyce, and Don Bandy and wife, Marcie. She is survived by one daughter, Marjorie Bandy. She is survived by thirteen grandchildren and seventeen great-grandchildren.
Mellie attended Evergreen Baptist Church as a child and a teenager, and later was a member and active participant for more than 70 years.
Where Mellie lived throughout her long life, she planted! She planted trees, bushes, flowers, and huge vegetable gardens. There are at least four homes in the Sullivan area where trees, bushes, and perennials have prospered and stand today as a testimonial to her green thumb. A neighbor commented that she could put a stick in the ground and make it grow, and that she faithfully watered her flowers from her rain barrel.
In later years, after the harvest, she quilted throughout the winter months. Each child and grandchild received one of her homemade quilts.
Important celebrations in her life included her fiftieth wedding anniversary, her sixtieth wedding anniversary, and her ninety-fifth birthday. The final celebration was a celebration of her life on July 11, 2002 at Evergreen Baptist Church. Reverend Warren Brewer was the minister in charge of that celebration. Marsha Johanning, Sandy Koppelmann, and Hannah Smith were the vocalists. John Bazel, Oran Brewer, David Cornman, Audrey Laubinger, Gilbert McMahan, and Curtis Mueller were pallbearers.
Interment was in the Evergreen Cemetery. Arrangements were under the direction of the Hassebroek Funeral Home a subsidiary of the Eaton Funeral Home. The ladies of Evergreen Baptist Church provided the celebration dinner.
Mellie will not be forgotten on this earth but will live on in the memories and lives of many who were touched by her long days upon this land which the Lord thy God giveth thee. Sulivan Independent 7-15-2002

OBITUARIES (The Current Wave page 12, January 10 1990
Jesse Earl Cooper, son of Jesse and Dora Toelke Cooper was born July 11 1908 in Franklin county Missouri and passed away December 30 1989 at the age of 81 years, 5 months and 19 days, in Port Hueneme, California after a valiant fight against cancer.
In 1932, Earl and Stella Ferguson were joined in Holy Matrimony and just 10 months later, Earl's young wife was taken from him leaving him with a baby girl, Doris Mac, just one week old. At first, Earl thought he couldn't go on with his life, but eventually, love came into his life again and he and Marie Sobinske exchanged their marriage vows. They were given 25 years of happiness. Their home was blessed with two wonderful children, Robert Earl and Ann Marie. when Robert was in college and Ann had entered nurses training, Earl again lost his loving wife. This was in 1959. In 1963, God again blessed Earl's life with a loving helpmate, Mable Ennis Phillips. Earl and Mable made their home in California during the winter months, were Mable taught school and Earl followed the carpenter trade and enjoyed his hobby of gardening. Earl and Mable also loved traveling. when they were first married, they made a trip into the mountains where it was snowing. They were in their pick-up truck, so Earl loaded the back with snow and took it back to port Hueneme for their neighbor children to see, many of the children had never seen snow and how Earl and Mabel enjoyed seeing those little ones playing in the snow! this was the kind of man Earl Cooper was. He was a strong man with lots of love for all things great and small. When Gerald Meade was a little fellow, Earl helped Gerald's dad sink a well shaft for water. After that Gerald always said Earl cooper was the strongest man in the world. Well, to his children and grandchildren, Daddy and Grandpa Eal has been about the strongest man in the world. Going back over Daddy's life, we see a lot of heartaches he's had along the way, but--we also remember an awful lot of happiness--when the family got together for home made ice cream or a feast of watermelon, cooled in the spring branch--Daddy didn't care much for fancy things, but he loved and was most happy with just the simple things of life. He lived a good clean life and we never heard our Daddy ever use God's name in vain, he never smoked a cigarette and we never ever saw our Daddy drunk. And he tried his best to instill in his children all the things he believed was right. But the most wonderful thing in this world this past summer, thanks to the prayers of his family and friends, Daddy gave his heart to God. He has always been a good man, but how wonderful to know he now rest in the arms of God.
He was preceded in death by his loving wives, Stella and Marie, his parents Jesse and Dora, two brothers, Eli and Charlie and one son-in-law, Dale Martin. He leaves to mourn his passing, his beloved wife Mable of Port Hueneme California; his son, Robert of Marionville, Missouri; his two daughters, Doris Martin of Eminence, and Ann Dix of Springfield Missouri; his step-daughter pat Dawson of Dana Point, California; one daughter-in-law, Nancy Cooper; one son-in-law Roy Dix; one step-son-in-law bill Dawson; 11 grandchildren, Bill Dawson Jr., Diane martin and Luann Dawson Hayden, Donna martin, Lynda, Robbie, Karyn and Kevin Cooper, Robert, Jonathan and Jennifer Dix; two great grandson, Jay Martin and Dusty Ard; two brothers, Clifton of Summersville and George of Michigan; three sister, Blanche Hamilton of Alton Illinois, Bertha Bradford of Birch Tree and Beulah Dorman of Eminence; six brother-in-law and five sisters-in-law, many nieces and nephews and a host of friends. We are unhappy about losing our Daddy but we know he is in God's keeping and someday we will have a family reunion, where there will be no more cancer, heart trouble or any other sorrow, but all will be peace, joy and Happiness with our Lord.

CARD OF THANKS
We would like to take this means to thank sincerely all of those who have been so kind to us during the sickness and death of our father, J. Earl Cooper. We would like to say a special thank you to Mother Mabel and the family in California who were so generous with their love and devotion during Daddy's last illness. Thank you, for loving our Daddy! also than you to Aunt ___.

While quite a bit later, they had dark headed Debby, to keep them young as our Sarah does us. Clifton is a gifted man and does out standing work on anything he undertakes to do. So is his wife, Virginia who has learned to play the piano with Debby adding this joyful thing to her life, for she has been a wonderful homemaker, cooking delicious wholesome meals for their healthy family. Sewing many fine garments etc.

Per June Manion;
During the time my mother Bertha Agnes Armistead was married to Lee John Duncan she became a beautician. She worked and put her daughter (June Manion) through school. June has always used his name although she was never adopted. School records, marriage license and etc., records sent to Salt Lake City Genealogy Society has her name listed as June Davis-Duncan. On birth announcements show June's name as Wanita June Davis. Birth record shows it as June Davis. In her teens June has used the name of Juanita June Duncan or June Jaunita Duncan.
Bertha would not allow Lee John Duncan "My Dad" to adopt her daughter June Davis. June recognized him as her "Dad" through the time of his death and named her son Michael Lee Manion after him.
My "Dad" was a self educated man, very intelligent. After divorce moved to Florida and invented block machine, roof tile machine, a lift for a large truck to haul, lift and install septic tanks. Had business in Oakland Park, Fla. O.P. Concrete Products. Frugal man saved his money. Had a daughter in his older years, Ida Mae Duncan, her mother was Thelma Johnson, they never married but he always took care of her, sent her to school until she went to work for telephone company in St. Lauderdale Fla., and later married.
When he became sick and in the hospital, recovered and later became senile, June took him into her home and took care of him for over eight years. June's husband passed away and she moved there taking step father along. She always said "He is My Dad, the only one I called Daddy."
He later died in nursing home, cancer in jaw and face. June took him to St. Louis were he was buried in Jefferson Barracks National Cemetery. He was in U. S. Army-Air Force, pilot, before Air Force was formed as individual service. He flew bi-winged planes WW I 1918.
