At the age of seventeen, she realized her lost condition and, upon true repentance, she was born again and baptized in the Church of God in Christ, Mennonite on September 14, 1902, remaining faithful to her promise to the end. She lived with her mother, faithfully managing the household together until she joined hands in holy matrimony with our father, Min. Peter A. Penner, August 27, 1943. They shared joys and sorrows for almost thirteen years. Mother proved to be a very loving and devoted wife, mother, and grandmother. And we as family are grateful for the companionship she provide for our lonesome father, till God suddenly called him to his reward on August 13, 1956. They made their home in the Greenland Congregation. After this, Mother joined hands in holy matrimony with John deVeer on January 27, 1957, sharing joys and sorrows for almost three years where she again was a very tender and loving companion till Father John deVeer was taken from her side through death January 24, 1960. During the last marriage, they lived in their house on Levi and Agnes Reimer's yard. The last sixteen years, Mother was a resident in the Greenland Home where she was well cared for.
