Maria G. Benner, widow of the late Enos D. Benner, of Soudertown, Pa., quietly
fell asleep early Monday morning April 12, 1926; at the age of 78 y. 1 m. 27 d.
She suffered an attack of plural pneumonia followed by a complication of
diseases. She suffered a great deal during her last illness but bore it all
patiently. She seemed to realize that the time of her departure had come and
often spoke of it. The following children survive: Sarah, wife of R.C. Parndt,
Telford, Pa.; Lovina, wife of S.S. Alderfer, Philadelphia, Pa.; Elmer W. Benner,
Franconia, Pa.; Tillie, wife of B. F. Simmons, Telford, Pa.; Rhine W. Benner,
Roaring, W. Va.; and Elsie, wife of Titus Myers, Soudertown, Pa. Funeral
services were conducted on April 15, 1926, at the home of her youngest daughter,
Mrs. Titus Myers, by Bro. Jacob M. Moyer of the Soudertown Congregation and at
the Rockhill Mennonite Church, where she was a member for over fifty years, by
Bros. Joseph Ruth, of Line Lexington, and Edwin Souder and Alfred Detwiler of
the Rockhill Congregation. Interment in cemetery nearby.
