Early in life she was converted and joined the Methodist church of which she was a faithful member at the time of her death.

She will be greatly missed, but we rejoice to know that when on the resurrection morning when God calls, we shall see her once more. When there will be no more parting or sorrow. Dearest Bertha, thou has left us, And your loss we deeply feel, But 'tis God that has bereft us, He can all our sorrows heal. ___________ CARD OF THANKS We wish to thank the friends and neighbors who so kindly assisted us during the sickness and death of our wife, mother and sister, and also for the floral offerings.
