In early life she was converted and united with the Mennonite Church, of which she continued an exemplary member. She lived a life of trust and died in confident hope of triumphant resurrection and a crown of glory. At the age of eight she moved with her parents to Garden City, Mo., where she spent her girlhood life, having kept house for her father after her mother's passing. On May 4, 1904, she was united in marriage with William E. Dettwiler. Since that time she has lived near Harper, Kans. She was preceded in death by an infant son (Paul), her father, mother, 1 brother, and 3 sisters. She leaves her sorrowing husband and the following children: Bertha (Mrs. Arami King), Pearl, Ernest, Velma, and Justus, all of Harper, Kans., and Emily (Mrs. John Diller) of Hesston Kans.; also 4 grandchildren who gave her much enjoyment, her step-mother (Mrs. Anna Shepp), 2 half-brothers (Park J. Shepp and Garland Shepp, all of Garden City, Mo.), 1 sister-in-law (Mrs. Sadie Shepp of Kansas City, Mo.), a number of nieces and nephews and a host of friends. The family have lost a kind and loving wife and mother, whose place can never be filled. Her quiet disposition and thoughtful consideration won for her a place in the hearts of many who have learned to love her. We do not know why her sudden departure, but "It is the Lord; let Him do what seemeth Him good." Funeral services were held Feb. 21, conducted by Bro. R. M. Weaver assisted by Bro. J. J. Zimmerman and Bro. Paul Erb. Text, Rev. 14:13 (the same text used for her sister-in-law (Amanda Dettwiler) who passed away just two months preceding). "Her willing hands are folded, Her dear warm heart is stilled; A place is vacant in her home, Which never can be filled." (Note: The Gospel Herald misspelled her last name it is Detweiler)
