Years ago she began to battle with the dread disease arthritis. With great Christian fortitude and patience she waged this fight, reserving her strength from her faith in Christ and His word. In this, all these years, she was a shining example to her many relatives and friends. The last weeks proved hard and painful and Sunday, April 3rd, about 9 P. M., she quietly passed away and was taken to the homeland.
She leaves behind to mourn her loss, besides many relatives and friends, her invalid mother, one son, two daughters and two brothers. She was 37 years, 11 months and 28 days at the time of her death.
Funeral services were held in the Mennonite church Wednesday, April 6th, at 10 o'clock, conducted by the pastor, Rev. M. M. Horsch, assisted by Rev. J. C. Mehl. Interment at the Forest Lawn Cemetery, Los Angeles, by the side of her husband. — Upland News.
