York New Times 12/20/2011 :
Centenarian, Edna Schwab, 104, of York, died on Sunday, Dec. 18, 2011 at York. Edna was born in Imperial on June 14, 1907, the first child of Albert and Alvina (Hoffman) Hust.
Edna was baptized Nov. 19, 1907. When Edna was 11, her parents moved the family back to Sutton, the birthplace of both parents. They joined the Hope Reform Church in Sutton. Edna was confirmed and joined the church's membership at age 14.
Edna attended the rural school in District 66 and Farmers Valley Mill. She graduated from Sutton High School in 1926. They were the first Sutton class to wear caps and gowns.
Edna married Benjamin Carl Schwab on Aug. 22, 1926. The couple's first home was on land they farmed south of Sutton, which they rented from Ben's father. They became the parents of three daughters. In 1942, they moved into Sutton, where Ben was employed in a grocery store.
In 1947, Ben, Edna and their daughters moved to York. Ben worked at the Holcomb Hatchery for 36 years, and Edna was hired at Brown-McDonald Department Store before the chain of department stores became J. M. McDonald Deportment Stores with headquarters in Holdrege and Hastings, NE.
Edna worked there for five years before joining the Bell Clinic as one of five women who worked alongside the doctors, doing everything from sterilizing equipment to performing laboratory tests.

After he died of cancer, Edna worked for two years at York General Hospital, then seven years at the King's Court Ladies Apparel. Edna retired at age 76.
Ben and Edna joined East Ave United Brethren Church in York, where Edna taught Sunday school for 19 years and received her 50-year member pin. Edna joined First United Church when East Avenue Church closed.
