Mr. and Mrs. Kundel have resided in Sutherland since 1918 when they moved in from the farm. They came to O'Brien county from Gladbrook in 1894.
Mrs. Kundel was a member of the Zion Evangelical church and Ladies Aid society at Calumet and also a member of the Ladies Aid of the M. E. church at Sutherland.
Her life was filled with a deep settled peace, hers not to worry. She lived cheerfully, courageously, carefully knowing that her health was far from rugged. Her going was quiet and without delay, and she was not for God took her.
