Raffensperger, well beloved Victor resident, died Monday night at her home in this city after an illness of several months. She had been ailing since early last summer, but only within recent weeks was it known that her malady was incurable. She faced the final hour with a serenity born of a complete assurance of her faith in Christ, and her knowledge of a well-spent life, passing away peacefully, surrounded by members of her family. The funeral was held this afternoon at 2 o'clock from the residence. Simplicity marked the last rites, as befitting her life and works. Her former pastor, Rev. C. w. Hempstead of Muscatine, delivered the sermon. Rev. H. W. Brandt of the Immanuel M. E. Church and Rev. G. A. Schmidt of the Methodist church in Victor assisted. Miss Alice Dragstedt sang "Safe in the Arms of Jesus." At the conclusion of the service the body was taken to the I.O.O.F. cemetery for its final resting place. The pall bearers were J. W. Shultz, Jr., Henry Wahl, Charles Ferguson, J. P. Lawlor, Frank Dunlap and J. W. Atkinson. All the business houses closed during the hour of the funeral as a mark of respect. The attendance of friends filled the spacious residence to overflowing. Anna M. Kempf, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John J. Kempf, was born at Victor, Iowa, Oct. 14, 1877, and lived in the same community until her death on Dec. 20, 1926. She graduated from Victor High School and for two years taught in the schools of Iowa county. On Apr. 19, 1899, she was married to Charles J. Raffensperger and commenced housekeeping in the same dwelling occupied by her parents in their early married life, her oldest son, Orville, being born in the same room in which she first saw light. Afterward Bernice and Leonard came to complete the family of which she was the ideal mother. Her husband and three children, her father and mother, and two brothers, Edward and George, survive her. She was a member of the Eastern Star and of the Congregational church.
