In 1886 she united with the Cressman Mennonite Church at Breslau, and upon their removal to her late home she transferred her membership to the Snyder church. To these churches she was a faithful member to the end. Her last audible words were, "Take me home. "This along with other expressions give us a sure hope that she has gone to be with her Lord. The funeral was held Jan. 23 from her late residence in Bloomingdale to the Cressman Mennonite Church, Breslau, for services. Burial took place in the adjoining cemetery. Ministers, H. W. Stevanus and Oscar Burkholder. Text, Matt. 24: 13.
