text of obituary:
Freni (Waltner) Stucky, youngest child of William and Marie Waltner, was born march 20 1867, in Kotosufka, Russia. At the age of five years she lost her mother, thus being deprived of the comforting care of motherhood.
In 1874, she, with her father, brothers and sisters, immigrated to the United Stats and located in McPherson County, Kansas, in the vicinity of Moundridge. Here she attended school as a young girl, and also experienced the privation and hardships of pioneer life most forcefully, for she lost her father through death in the first years of her sojourn in this new pioneer country. Being thus orphaned, it was her lot to maker her home with others.
