Read More	Barbara Catherine Susanna Wise was born at Hubbles Corner, Franklin County Indiana on March 2, 1856 where she lived with her parents until 9 years of age then moved to Greensburg, Ind., and later to St. Paul, Decatur county, Indiana, where she grew to womanhood. On October 30, 1876 she was united in marriage to Martin Decker in the Catholic church at St. Paul. They started their married life together in St. Paul then later moved to a farm near Cinthyanne, Ind., then on October 1, 1885 moved to Coffey county, Kansas near Hartford to a farm they bought and improved. They lived there for 17 years, from there they moved to their farm near LeRoy, Kan. and in November 1912 moved to their home adjoining Burlington where she passed away peacefully and very unexpected on Sunday evening October 1, 1922 at 8:30 o'clock. Mrs. Decker was born and raised a Catholic and lived a most exemplary Catholic life. She was indeed a most sincere Christian woman. She loved her God and church and served Him first and more than anything else. She made many many sacrifices attending Mass and Devotions in any and all kinds of weather. Of late her health did not permit her to go so often, but her seat was seldom every vacant. She was a most endearing and attached wife and mother. She loved her family next to her God. Nothing was ever at any time too much for her to do for any of them, and she always bore all of them and their care in her mind and at heart, always wishing to have all of them near, or with her. She suffered much for many years, but complained little in regard to her sufferings. She lived to the age of 66 years and 7 months. She was the mother of thirteen children and grandmother of twenty-eight. She leaves beside her husband and children, one brother Chas. J. Wise of St. Paul, Ind. and many other relatives and friends who are sorry to lose her. Mrs. Decker loved life and had many other interests and worked hard in every way. She loved to toil in her garden and with her flowers as well as other work both in and out about her home. Mrs. Decker was sick for five weeks. Her husband, Josie, Jake and Thomas were all that were with her at the time of her death, as it was not thought that the end was near. She died very suddenly without scarcely a moments notice. The funeral services were held at the Catholic church Wednesday morning October 4 at 9 o'clock. All the children attended the funeral except Mrs. Susie Kruger, who was unable to be there. The six sons at the request of their father were the pall bearers: Joe, Frank, Bert, Charley, Jake and Thomas. In addition to the loss of their mother another grief was that several had sickness in their families and prevented them from being able to attend the funeral. The remains were placed in the Calvary Cemetery west of town. The surviving children are Joseph Decker, Mary Agnes Shull, Josephine Gertrude Decker, Emma Anna Gorman, Frank Minrod Decker, Albert Edward Decker, Charlie Martin Decker, Susie Mary Kruger, Jake Adolf Decker, Flora Elizabeth Riebel and Thomas William Decker. Katie died at the age of 2 1/2 years and an infant son the last of the family. The father with all the children are much grieved and will sadly mourn her loss as will many true and lasting relatives and friends.
