Former MCC Worker In Congo Dies
Goshen, Ind. — Funeral services for Arthur H. Augsburger, 69, former MCC worker in the Congo, Africa, were held May 28 at the Forks Mennonite Church near Middlebury, Ind.
Mr. Augsburger died at the home in Middlebury on May 26 after an extended illness of cancer. He and his wife went to the Congo under the MCC in March 1962 and remained there until September 1963, when forced to leave because of his illness.
A native of Flanagan, Ill., he was a retired farmer and a resident of the Middlebury community most of his life. In 1947 he spent six months in Poland on a relief assignment.
Survivors in addition to his widow include two daughters and a son and their families.
