MRS. HELENA WALL

Funeral services for the late Mrs. Helena Wall, who passed away January 5, 1966, were held in the Coaldale Mennonite Church on January 8. Officiating ministers were F. W. Dyck and D. J. Pankratz. The hymn "Jesus, thy blood and righteousness, my beauty are, my glorious dress" was Mrs. Wall's personal testimony.

Mrs. Wall came to know the Lord as her personal Saviour through the ministry of Rev. J. Reimer and was later baptized at the age of eighteen.

In 1905 she was married to Cornelius C. Wall to which union the Lord gave eight children. In 1930 they migrated to Canada and in 1940 she was predeceased by her husband.

Mourning her passing are three sons and two daughters, three daughters-inlaw, 15 grandchildren, two great grandchildren and many friends.
