LAVINA AGNES SCHMIDT
Lavina Agnes Schmidt, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ben B. Schmidt, was born on April 10, 1919, near Goessel, in Marion county, Kansas. She spent her childhood days on a farm with her parents and was brought up with all the privileges which a Christian home offers to a child.
She attended school at Hochfeld and at Gordon District. After finishing the grade school, she attended the Goessel high school for about one and one-half years, but could not finish on account of failing health.
She was baptized upon confession of faith in her Redeemer on May 16, 1937, by Elder P. H. Unruh and joined the Alexanderwohl church, whose faithful member she remained to the end.
Lavina was the first grandchild of her father's family and brought much joy to her home. She had normal health until the age of 11 years, after which certain indications of failing health made their appearance. There were periods when her body was strong enough to perform the daily tasks of life, and then again her health had a setback and often laid her on the sickbed. These constant changes had a depressing effect upon her life and they brought hope for health and recovery one day, and discouragement the other day.
