• Notes

  Huber.-Emma Amanda, daughter of J.J. and Martha (King) Bontrager, was born Jan. 7, 1876, in Fairfield Co., 0.; died Nov. 16, 1987, near Harrisonburg, Va.; aged 61 y. 10 m. 9 d. Nov. 24, 1901, she was united in marriage to Simon G. Huber of Elida, 0. To this union 3 children were born. She united with the Mennonite Church early in youth, to which faith she remained steadfast to the end. Mother was in her usual health, and was about the duties of the day when suddenly stricken, at 11 A. M. Medical aid was summoned, but to no avail. Death was due to angina pectoris. Although the shock was severe, we humbly submit; knowing that He doeth all things well. Surviving are her husband, 2 sons, and 1 daughter (Clarence of S. Boston, Va.; Mary at home, and Ira of Mt. Crawford, Va.), 7 grandchildren, 3 brothers (J. P. Bontrager of Atwater, Calif.; A. C. Bontrager of W. Liberty, 0.; C. F. Bontrager of Cleveland, 0.), 2 sisters (Mrs. S. H. King and Mrs. J. B. Kaufman of West Liberty, 0.), besides many other friends and relatives. Funeral services were conducted from the home and at Weaver's Church by the home ministers. Interment in cemetery nearby. "It was not in cruelty, it was not in wrath, That the reaper came that day; Twas an angel visited our home on earth And bore our loved one away." The Family.
