She was a fond mother, a kindly neighbor and her friends are numbered by her acquaintances. Her departure is greatly mourned by all.
Three daughters and one son survive, Mrs. Harry Kettle and W. C. Heisterberg residing here, and Mrs. Joe Rhom and Mrs. Ed Davison, residing in Salida, and three grandchildren. She is also survived by a sister, Mrs. Grother, at Coal Camp, Mo., and a brother, Martin Mahnkin at Sale Lake City, Utah.

Otto Herwagen, after which interment was made in the Ula cemetery, beside the grave of her husband, whose death preceded that of Mrs. Heisterberg about fourteen years.
