Seven children was born of their union, five of who are living namely Gerard, Louis and Lee, Misses Alexis and Ida Ihnken.
The sudden death of this good woman brings to light this startling significance the natural fact how near while in life we all are to death. She was a good wife and lovable mother. A beautiful home is blighted and their case is a sad one which only God and time can assuage.
The remains were brought to Castroville and taken to the St. Louis Catholic Church, after which they were interred in the family burial ground Thursday afternoon. Rev. Father Kirch performed the last sad rites.
