Seven children were born in this family, five sons and two
daughters, all of whom are now living. Mother being the first to leave the family circle. After coming to Kansas, she with her husband united with the United Brethren church of which she was a worthy member at the time of her death. She had been greatly afflicted for many years, but bore her suffering with Christian patience, waiting until the Father whispered, "That is enough child, come home." This a Christian woman, a faithful wife, an affectionate mother and a kind neighbor is gone. But our loss is her eternal gain. |
