Here's the translation for Anna Loose nee Burman -
Mother Anna Loose nee Burman was born on 2 May 186[8? or 9?] in the town of Wiesenmiller in Russia. Here she was dedicated to the Lord through holy baptism, and confirmed in her 15th year of life. On 8 October 1890 she married George David Loose. This marriage was blessed with eleven children, of which five preceded their mother in death. In the year 1907 she came to Fort Morgan, and has been retired since 1937. She was a member of our Christus parish; but in the last few years she has been unable to attend services and prayer hours. On Saturday morning, 21 November, she became seriously ill; all medical help and advice brought no relief, even the loving hands and care from her children brought only occasional relief from her pains. On Tuesday night she was able to move from the temporal to the eternal [realm]. By God's grace she lived to be 81 years, 6 months, and 29 days. We call to her: "Rest in peace!" She leaves behind her grieving husband, who was able to share joy and sorrow with her for 60 years, her three daughters: Mrs. Jacob Kaufman in Gering, Nebr., Mrs. Jacob Lenhardt and Mrs. Fred Schreiner, both in Fort Morgan, her three sons: Alexander in Fort Morgan, Victor and Paul in Denver, Colo., 15 grandchildren and 19 great-grandchildren, as well as many friends. May the comforting God, who comforts His own, be with you all!
Fort Morgan, Colo. C. Sauer, Pastor
Notes: Because the image quality is inconsistent, some of the numbers were difficult to read. Perhaps information from your other research can fill in the correct numbers.
Also, even though the typed header on this obituary says Anna's maiden name is Buxman, I'm reading it as Burman. Again, your other research on this person will help you decide which is correct.

Here's the translation for George David Loose -
Georg David Loose, son of David Loose and Mrs. Anna, nee Temple, was born on 16 April 1872 in Kraft, Russia. As a child he was dedicated to the Lord through the sacrament of baptism and was later confirmed after thorough teaching in the truths of salvation. On 8 October 1890, he married Anna Buxman. His wife preceded him in death in 1950. The Loose family came to the US in 1906 and lived in Wisconsin for a year before coming to Fort Morgan in 1907 and remained here. Immediately they joined the Congregational Church and have been valued members for 53 years. In 1909 the deceased dedicated his heart and life to his savior and was true to the parish, as well as [??] the brotherhood. On 26 January 1961 the Lord called him at the age of 88 years, 9 months, and 11 days, from the temporal to the eternal. He leaves behind 6 children, a sister, 16 grandchildren, 24 great-grandchildren, 8 great-great-grandchildren, and [??] circle of dear friends and relatives. [??] we commend to the dear care of a comforting savior. The funeral was held in Fort Morgan on 30 January.
Fort Morgan, Colorado Fred Schneider, Pastor
Note - due to the inconsistent image quality, some words were difficult/impossible to make out. The gist of the obituary is understandable anyway.
Also, in the previous obituary for Anna Loose, the maiden name looked like Burman. In this article it is clearly Buxman.

Here's the translation for Edward Jacob Loose -
Edward Jacob Loose, a son of Jacob Loose and his wife Katharina nee Schmidt, was born on 27 September 1929 in Brush, Colo., and received holy baptism by Pastor F. A. Fünning in Fort Morgan, Colo. He was a faithful and obedient child in the family and gladly went to Sunday school and church. He became ill with a weak heart and soon had to go to the children's hospital in Denver, Colo., where he was cared for for 2 months. But his condition worsened and on 16 July 1934, at 4:47 in the afternoon, he went to his higher home to his Good Shepherd. His age was 13 years, 9 months, and 19 days. He is survived by his grieving parents, four brothers, three sisters, his grandparents, three uncles, five aunts, and a large number of other relatives and friends. On 18 July he was given to eternal rest in a worthy manner. May God comfort the dear grieving ones! Text: Psalm 68:20; for the English sermon: 1. Samuel 1:27 and 28.
Denver, Colo. Jakob Wagner, Pastor
Note - Psalm 68:20 -
20 He that is our God is the God of salvation; and unto God the Lord belong the issues from death.
Samuel 1:27 and 28 -
27 For this child I prayed; and the Lord hath given me my petition which I asked of him: 28 Therefore also I have lent him to the Lord; as long as he liveth he shall be lent to the Lord. And he worshipped the Lord there.
