• Notes

  Roth. Lavina (Hostetler) Roth died at her home in New Hamburg, Ont., on Sunday, April 24, 1927; aged 53 y. 8 m. 17 d., death being due to an attack of the heart. She seemed to be in her usual good health and had spent a pleasant afternoon with some friends who had called at her home. When about to prepare the evening meal, however, she very suddenly collapsed, becoming unconscious immediately, and in a few minutes her soul was in eternity. Her death came as a great shock to the family, and mother will be greatly missed. Her cheery face and her kindly counsels we can never forget, and we hope to meet her in heaven some day, where no farewell will ever be spoken. On March 15, 1892, she was united in marriage to Bro. Rudolph Roth. She leaves her sorrowing husband, four sons (Arthur, Harry, Moses, and Wilfrid) and two daughters (Elizabeth and Lavina), also four brothers, an aged step-mother and many other relatives and friends. The funeral services were conducted on April 28, at the home by Bro. Isaiah Cressman and at the Biehn Mennonite Church (of which she had been a loyal member for over twenty years) by Brethren Jonas Snider and Moses Shantz. Texts, Phil. 3: 20 and Psa. 116: 15. Interment in the adjoining cemetery. Gospel Herald -Volume XX, Number 7 - May 19, 1927, pages 158, 159 ______________________________
