text of obituary:

Gerber — Hannah Gerber was born July 26, 1865, at her home three miles west of Bluffton, Ohio, and died at the community hospital, June 20, at the age of 62 years, 10 months, 24 days after an illness of about six weeks.

She was of a cheerful and contented nature, always willing to give her services wherever needed. At an early age she united with the Mennonite church and remained a faithful member until her death. Her parents, two sisters, Mrs. Sam Amstutz and Mrs. P. B. Amstutz, preceded her in death. She is survived by one brother, David, and five nieces and nephews.

Funeral services were held at the First Mennonite church, conducted by her pastor, Rev. E. J. Neuenschwander and assisted by Rev. S. M. Musselman.
