She is survived by her bereaved husband, 2 sons, and 1 daughter (Moses, Rachel, wife of Milton Litwiller, and Clarence). She is also survived by 6 grandchildren, 2 brothers, 2 sisters, and a host of other relatives and friends. She united with the A. M. Church in her youth and remained a faithful member until death. The immediate cause of her death was apoplexy. She passed away unexpectedly after an illness of three days, being unconscious all but the first three hours. She was a kind and loving wife and mother, always willing to help others. We feel our loss sadly, but we know that our Father doeth all things well. Funeral services were held at the home by Peter Nafziger and at the A. M. Church by Daniel Steinman, Wm. Lauver, and Daniel Jutz. Interment in adjoining cemetery.1a

    Death of Christian Litwiller

    Death came very suddenly to an esteemed resident of New Hamburg late on Monday evening, when Mr. Christian R. Litwiller passed away at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Milton Leis, near Mannheim. Mr. Litwiller had been working at Wellesley during the day and went to his daughter's home for the night. He had his supper and retired about 10 o'clock apparently in his usual robust health but shortly thereafter was seized with a heart attack and passed away before medical aid could be summoned. The deceased was born near St. Agatha and spent his whole life in this community. For the past twelve years he was a resident of this town. He was aged 56 years, 9 months and 13 days. He leaves his wife, who before her marriage was Katharine Kropf of St. Agatha, besides his daughter, Mrs. Leis and four sons, Edward of New Hamburg, Ivan of Hamilton, and Rudy and John of Lancaster, N.Y. He is also survived by one brother, John Litwiller of Wilmot, and two sisters, Mrs. Aaron Wagler, of Baden, and Miss Catharine Litwiller, of St. Agatha. The funeral was held from his late home here yesterday forenoon with service in the Amish-Mennonite Church, near Baden, followed by interment in the A.-M. Cemetery. The funeral service was conducted by Bishop Daniel Steinman and was attended by a large circle of relatives and friends.

    FINED $25 FOR FAILING TO STOP AFTER ACCIDENT

    In the Kitchener police court on Thursday last, Ruddy Litwiller, Glasgow Lane, Kitchener, was found guilty of failing to return to the scene of an accident after hitting a horse and buggy and was fined $25 and costs or 19 days in jail. Although Litwiller produced eight witnesses to support his claim that he was not out of the house at the time of the accident, the prosecution produced a bill for gasoline which Litwiller purchased at a local gasoline station, the clerk at the gasoline station swearing that he sold several gallons of gas to Litwiller on the night of the accident. Litwiller claimed to have bought no gas on Dec. 24th but on Dec. 23rd, the night before the accident. The magistrate said he believed the witnesses who gave evidence on behalf of Litwiller were mistaken and he accordingly imposed the above fine, the witnesses also disagreeing in their evidence to some extent. Litwiller asked for an adjournment until Wednesday as he wished to enter an appeal, which was granted.

    Remembering Doreen

    Doreen was born at home in New Hamburg, the second of five children. Growing up in the hubbub of the Bender farm there were many special times with siblings, cousins and friends. We have heard many stories of silly play that ended in uncontrollable giggles. In her early years Doreen attended Steinmann Mennonite Church where she shared her creative talents by teaching Sunday School and Bible School from a young age.

    Doreen's high school years were spent at Rockway Mennonite School where she participated in all school activities. Music was her specialty, however, and it was in a small singing group that she met Doug Snyder. Doug and Doreen were married in 1964 after seven years of courtship.

    It gave Doreen great joy in life to care for and nurture her daughters. As Julie and Jane grew up, Willow Cottage, as the family home on Willow Street was affectionately known, became the gathering place for all of the neighbourhood kids as well as friends and cousins. Doreen loved having her children's friends around and was always ready with a special craft activity, juice and homemade popsicles.

    Doreen's hospitality has been experienced by many over the years. During Doug's years with the Mennonite Central Committee and in pastoral ministry she graciously and joyously hosted many people overnight and for meals; it was rare to have a meal without at least one extra person at the table. During this time Doug and Doreen also committed themselves to living a simple lifestyle. They made their own bread, and Doreen experimented with soybeans and lentils -- a significant addition to her traditional Mennonite "home-cooking" repertoire.

    As her children became more independent, Doreen returned to teaching. She began to give private art lessons to children out of the basement of her home. This program became so popular that she needed to move into a larger space and opened a private studio in 1980. Soon she was teaching 100 children a year and started an adult class as well. Personal relationships formed with students during that time have lasted through the years.

    The church has always been a central focus of Doreen's life. Being a teacher by profession, and a creative spirit, she easily directed her energies to Christian Education. She taught Sunday School and Bible School and was one of the founders and leaders of the younger group at Erb Street Mennonite Church then known as Junior Church. She also wrote Sunday School and Bible School curricula for the Herald Press Series. Doreen also wrote devotions for Rejoice magazine and used her artistic gifts to write On the Line, a children's magazine.

    In 1987 Doreen was diagnosed with a debilitating lung disease. There were many periods of grief as she gradually had to give up various segments of her life until, in 1989, she became totally bedridden. She was told that her only hope for life was a lung transplant which, at that time, was a rare and still very experimental procedure. Doreen embraced this hope whole-heartedly and once again drew on her creative spirit; this time for meditation and visualization as she struggled for survival. Finally, on December 1, 1989, a call came from University Hospital in London -- they had a lung for her. Doug has described how the news invigorated Doreen; it was as if her whole body suddenly came alive. It seemed that a current of energy moved all the way up through her limbs to the top of her head.

    Although her body had been in an extremely weakened condition, Doreen's transplant was successful. To her family and friends it was a true miracle. In the years that followed she was an inspiration to other transplant candidates and recipients. She spoke in the community about donor awareness and in many churches about her spiritual journey through her illness.

    Doreen's artistic talents and her unique ability to relate to many different people were united in a new vocation -- art therapy. For three years she commuted to University of Western Ontario in London to participate in its art therapy program. Occasionally this effort seemed to stretch her personal resources to the limit, but this was her way of insisting on living life to the fullest. She applied art therapy to assist many different people: at K-W Hospital, Family and Children Services, Pinehaven Nursing Home and with individual clients. However, it was not just the art that made a difference for these people, but the warmth of Doreen's gentle and generous spirit.

    The last few months have been witness to a gradual decline in Doreen's health. Nevertheless, her love and her caring continued to be manifest in her many relationships. Toward the end of 1997 she planned a family trip to Florida that was to take place this past February. It had been a dream of hers to take a holiday in a warmer climate for some time. As it became evident two days before the trip that Doreen would be unable to travel she insisted that the rest of the family go on without her. She said she would be with them where ever they were. Doug and Doreen had hoped she would regain enough strength so they could join their family by the end of the week. Sadly, Doreen's condition took a sudden turn for the worse. Last Thursday she was diagnosed with lymphoma. She died early Sunday morning.

    Doreen lived her life to her fullest potential until the very end. Although she faced many physical limitations these never limited the love and concern that she had for others.
