• Notes

  SCHWIETZER - Frona, wife of George Schweitzer, was born near Conestoga, M.H., Waterloo Co., Ont.; Feb. 15th 1849, and died Dec. 22d 1896, at her home at Kill Creek, Osborne Co., Kans., aged 47 years, 10 months, 7 days. She was married to George Schweitzer April 12th, 1869. To this union were born eleven children, ten of which -- six girls and four boys -- are living. Her bereaved husband also remains to mourn her death, but what is their loss is her eternal gain. She was an invalid for two years and all of that time she sat in a chair, unable to help herself. At first she had rheumatism, then she was paralyzed and lost the use of her limbs, but she bore it all with Christian patience, always cheerful and rejoicing in a Savior's love. The immediate cause of her death was another paralytic stroke. The funeral services were conducted by D.G. Lapp of Juniata, Neb., from 1 Thess., 4: 13, and the last clause of Luke 8: 52. Her remains were laid in the Evangelical graveyard, Kill Creek, Kansas. Herald of Truth, Vol. XXXIV, No. 5, March 1, 1897, Page 77, 78
