Early in life she accepted Jesus and her personal Saviour and about the year 1885 was baptized on her confession of faith and became a member of the Halstead Mennonite Church.
On Nov. 26, 1891 she was united in the holy bonds of matrimony with Frederick Ringelman. In the summer of 1894 they removed to Geary, Okla., in and near which place they made their home from that time until her departure. Three children were born to this union, Orlando, Elma and Elda, all living in Geary at this time.
When the First Mennonite church of Geary was founded she transferred her membership and became one of the small group of charter members. She remained loyal, steadfast and faithful member until her death, which occured [sic] on December 15, 1924.
Although she was ill for a long time before her death, she was always cheerful, never complaining, but ever a source of inspiration to others with whom she came in contact. Hers was a consistent Christian life, it being her greatest delight to bring joy and cheer to others and to reflect honor upon the name of her Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ by being of service to others both temporally and spiritually. She lived close to her Saviour, so to her death was merely the transition to a better life.
She attained the age of 53 years, 5 months and 29 days. She leaves to mourn her early departure her husband, son, two daughters, a daughter in law and grandson, seven brothers , two sisters and a host of friends.
Good Night, Beloved, sleep and take thy rest;
Lay Down thy head upon thy Saviour’s breast.
We Love thee well, but Jesus loves thee best.
Good Night; Good Night; Good Night.
