SARA PLETT
Sara Plett (nee Wiebe) was born in Russia in 1902 and died on November 18 at the age of 70 years.
She accepted Christ at age 14 and joined the MB church 2 years later, where she sought to glorify her Lord until the end.
In 1920 she was married to Peter J. Plett, which union was blessed with 5 sons and 7 daughters. Together with her husband and 4 children she came to Canada in 1929, residing first in Manitoba, then Gem, Alta., and retiring later to Coaldale.
She is survived by her 12 children and 30 grandchildren (her husband predeceased her 6 months ago), as well as by a number of relatives. Funeral services were conducted in the Coaldale MB Church with Rev. D. J. Pankratz officiating.
