"Judgment for the plaintiff, Washington Bricker, Waterloo, as executor of the $40,000 estate of Rachel Shoemaker, who resided on Bingeman street, in an action for the probate of the will was delivered today by County Judge E.W. Clement. The judgment finds that Rachel Shoemaker was possessed of 'testimentary capacity' at the time the will was executed and at 'all material times'.

Evidence was given at the time of the hearing that Mrs. Shoemaker had been mentally ill previous to her death. Mrs. Shoemaker, according to evidence given for the plaintiff, made her will in Elmira, April 12,1938. She died June 22, 1940.

Josiah Shoemaker, her husband, who predeceased her, left his estate to be divided equally between his widow and his daughter, Erma, with the result that Mrs. Shoemaker's estate was augmented by $22,000. When she made her own will, according to court finding, she was disposing of an estate of about $16,000, consisting of four mortgages, two bonds and some cash in the bank.

Evidence for the plaintiff brought out that the peculiar actions and conduct of Mrs. Shoemaker during the time of her husband's illness was due to jealousy on her part over other people looking after and caring for her sick husband."

Notes:

The many friends of Mr. and Mrs. John Bricker, near Elmira, will be grieved to hear that their only son, Jonathan Roy, a child of about four years of age, died last Thursday night. The little lad had been suffering from an abscess on the throat and had been treated by a doctor who lanced the abscess from the outside and left the patient apparently recovering rapidly. During the night, however, the parents were aroused by a struggle the child made for breath. He was apparently choking. Mr. Bricker hastened for the doctor, but before the latter arrived life had flown. It is thought that the abscess burst internally and filled the windpipe so that suffocation ensued. The sudden demise was the more shocking since it was thought all danger was over.

Notes:

Another of Elmira's beloved sons has paid the supreme sacrifice by laying down his life for freedom, when the official word was received by his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Fred Schmidt, Hampton Street, their only son Floyd was killed in action Aug. 27th.

Floyd was twenty-four years of age and was born and raised in Elmira receiving his schooling in the public and high school here. He enlisted in Oct. 1941, and for ten months was in training at No. 10 Training Centre, Kitchener. At the finish of his training he volunteered for special duty with the First Special Service Force, made up of American and Canadian soldiers. Intensive training for nine months at Helena, Montana and shorter periods in West Virginia and Vermont followed.

First overseas duty was at Kiska during August of 1943 when his special unit were among the first to land at Kiska. The Japs had gone but the training and skill attained by the unit was definitely shown here as the highest. It was in the months to come, an inspiration to all troop units in the Allied armies.

Since December, 1943, Floyd was in Italy and went through some of the toughest work assigned to his unit. The Germans came to hate unabated this unit which they named "The Black Devils". Just before the invasion of France the unit was moved to England and were among the first to land on the invasion coast of Normandy.

Floyd was a good living young man and was very popular among a host of friends in the community. His supreme sacrifice has brought deep sorrow to many.

Memorial Service

A public Memorial Service will be held for Floyd in Zion Evangelical Church, Elmira, on Sunday afternoon, September 24th, at 2 p.m.
All war veterans are hereby asked to meet in the basement of the church on Sunday at 1:50 p.m. under the direction of Adjt. Ed. Plant, as well as all men in uniform, to participate in the service as a body and take their assigned place with the church as guard of honor.

Marilyn Faye Trapp, October 23, 1934 - March 5, 2006

In 1934 a beautiful baby girl was born to Charles and Marieta Miller. They named her Marilyn Faye and her journey began. Although Marilyn seemed to be a normal little girl, it became apparent as she grew that something was unusual. At first, people didn't notice much, since Marilyn seldom stole the spotlight. She seemed to prefer to stay in the background while looking after all the little things that made everything else run smoothly. Marilyn developed an uncanny ability to befriend anyone she came across. This feat allowed her to blend into any crowd no matter how disparate. This would serve her well later in life as she became involved in many different organizations and activities. When Marilyn got a little older she met a handsome young man named Gordon. She married him and had two baby boys they named Richard and Michael. She loved them all very much and endeavoured to become the best wife and mother she could possibly be. She succeeded. Amazingly, Marilyn still had more to give. She set about volunteering for many different causes. Her love of her earlier teaching career led her to the Sunday School program at church and also the Junior Choir. She spent time as a hockey mother when her sons were young. Volunteer work at the Maple Syrup Festival [Elmira] was added to the list. Each contribution was marked by an energy and commitment that few could match. People began to talk. They thought Marilyn was not normal. They marvelled at her kindness, always finding something good in everyone she met. How could she go through life with never a bad word about anyone? They were amazed at how many people she touched and they all seemed to be better people for having met her. When her journey was over, those who knew her best knew the truth. Marilyn had an abnormal heart. In fact, it was bigger than just about any heart in the world. Fortunately, for all of us, she knew exactly how to use it and because of that we have all been very blessed to have her in our lives. The world she left is a much better place today because she was here. With all our love, Gord and Rick.
