One son is deceased.
At an early age she accepted Christ as her personal Savior and united with the Evangelical Mennonite Church of which she remained a faithful member. She attended Fort Wayne Bible College from which she graduated in 1925.
She was in ill health for the last several months but bore her cross patiently and maintained a steadfast faith in her Lord.
Farewell dear mother take thy well-earned rest,
Allow thy head upon the dear Savior's breast.
We loved you well but Jesus loved thee best.
Some day we'll meet again on yonder shore,
Where tears and sorrow will be no more,
Then we shall be together forever and evermore.
Funeral services were conducted Oct. 27 at the American Legion Hall in Morton by Rev. Paul Rupp, and at the church by Rev. E.M. Rocke, the pastor, assisted by Rev. Mill Nussbaum. Burial was in the church cemetery.
