Louisa Eckart was born in Germany, Oct. 22, 1852, and passed away at her home in Elk Grove, Sunday, Aug. 21, 1921.
At the age of 17 she came with her parents to America, settling at Galena, Ill.. On March 23, 1878, she was united in marriage to Charlie Hoelting and after residing two years at Galena, the family removed to Elk Grove which has since been her home.
In 1878 she united with the German M.E. church at Galena, Ill, and after removing to Elk Grove transferred to the German M.E. church at Platteville, later she united with the Methodist Episcopal church at Elk Grove.
Altho suffering severely during the last several years from a complication of ailments, she endured all the pain and discomfort with remarkable courage and patience. Mrs. Hoelting was one of the kindest of neighbors taking special delight in sharing what she might have with others less fortunate.
Sympathetic by nature she rejoiced with others in their good fortunes but grieved deeply when she knew of sorrow or suffering. Altho she is gone from us, the memory of her life will be a source of inspiration to those whose fortune it was to call her wife, mother, friends and neighbors.
Besides her husband she leaves to mourn her loss, six children, Mrs. Chris Kinzle, near Elmo, W.C. and Chris F., on nearby farms, Anna, Theresa and Carl at home, one son passed away in infancy.
The funeral service was conducted at the home Wednesday afternoon, Rev. A. Edwards officiating, assisted by Rev. F.M. Haight, a former pastor.
The remains were buried in the Elk Grove cemetery.
