  • Notes 
    • BUSCHERT. - Ira, son Mr. and Mrs. Wendell Buschert, was born at Winterbourne, Ont., May 8, 1882; died at the K. W. Hospital, Oct. 19, 1945, from a complication of diseases; aged 63 y. 5 m. 11 d. On March 20, 1907, he was married to Nancy Binder of Breslau. Surviving are his widow, 2 sons (Claire and Herbert W., both of Kitchener), 3 grandchildren, 4 brothers (Ivan, Cereal, Alta.; Ammon, Waterloo, Ont.; Joseph, Kitchener, Ont.; and Chester, Preston, Ont.), and one sister (Mrs. Alexander Sheriffs, Carstairs, Alta.). Early in life he accepted Christ and united with the Mennonite Church. His religious experience was not a matter of much talk but rather of consistent living. He will be greatly missed by the family, church, and community. Memorial services were held at the First Mennonite Church, in charge of C. F. Derstine and Merle Shantz. Text, I Thess. 4: 14. Interment was made at Breslau.
