  • Notes 
    • Schlabach. - Annie, daughter of John L. and Catherine Schultz, was born March 29, 1888; died Sept. 11, 1941, at the Manitou Hospital, Waltrous, Sask.; aged 53 y. 5 m. 13 d. Her passing came very unexpectedly, being well. After a major operation she lived only 7 days, her heart not being able to withstand the shock. She had a similar operation 13 years ago and one 10 years ago. On Feb. 26, 1913, she was married to Dan Schlabach, after which they made their home in Saskatchewan. To this union were born 4 sons and 1 baby girl, 6 weeks old, was adopted in 1933. She accepted Christ as her personal Saviour when 18 years old, and served her Lord until death. While she was not a public worker, she was very much concerned about the safety of the ungodly, often expressing her wish that God will give them time to get right with Him. A little over a year ago she, with her husband, was ordained to the ministry to have charge of the Sharon Mennonite Church near Guernsey, Sask. She labored faithfully by her husband's side, visiting the sick, concerned about the poor, and donating many flowers to the aged and friends. She leaves to mourn: her husband, 4 sons, 1 daughter, 1 brother, and 2 sisters. Her parents and 1 brother preceded her to glory. Funeral services were held at the Sharon Mennonite Church, conducted by Bros. J. B. Stauffer of Tofield, Alta., and Edwin Bartel, Drake, Sask. The body was taken to Baden, Ont., to the home where she was born, raised, and married - now the home of Bro. and Sister Dave Holst. Funeral services were held at St. Agatha A. M. Church where she was baptized 35 years ago, in charge of Bros. M. H. Schmitt, formerly of Guernsey who ordained her, and M. O. Jantzi.

      "God called her home, it was His will, With Jesus Christ to dwell;
      The depths of sorrow we cannot tell, Of the loss of one we loved so well.
      God alone knows of how we miss her, For she was one of the best."
