She was affiliated with the Good Hope Lutheran Church, where the funeral services and burial were conducted on Monday, Feb 25, by the Rev M L Kester. She was in her 65th year when the end came and those who knew her best are those who feel most the sorrow of having to give her up.

Prior to her marriage she was a Miss Rodgers and on April 4, 1872, was married to E M Black of her home community. Their days together have been many, their home a real one.
