Unruh, a son of Peter C. and Helena Unruh, was born in the village Carlswalde, Poland Russia October 18, 1874 and peacefully passed away in the home of their children Claude Unruh, of Durham, Kansas at 2 P. M. March 20, 1947. At two weeks of age he with his parents and many others imigrated to America landing at Newton, Kansas, later they moved to Pawnee Rock where they lived several years and later to Durham, Kansas where father grew to manhood. His father died when he was twelve years of age, leaving much of the responsibility of the farm to him and his mother. He often spoke of the help she had been to him. His mother died in the summer of 1925. February 14, 1896 he was united in marriage to me, Helena Voth, his now sorrowing wife, mutually sharing joys and sorrows for fifty-one years and five weeks. To this union eight children were born of which three sons preceded him in death, also three grandchildren. We lived in Colorado, Gray county and in the later years at Galva and Durham. Father felt his lost condition without a Saviour, and through much prayer he found forgiveness of his sins in the blood of Jesus. He was baptized and received into the fellowship of the Church of God in Christ, Mennonite in the fall of 1896 by Minister Henry Schmidt, remaining faithful and true to his vows. He rejoiced greatly in the fellowship of the brethern and manifested a deep zeal for the welfare of the Church. Father had the salvation of the children and grandchildren at heart, and his greatest desire was to meet them all in those mansions above. He was a faithful husband and a kind and loving father and grandfather and a devoted Christian. He often expressed that he hoped to be saved by grace, and made special efforts to review his past life and set his house in order and received specific evidence that the Lord was with him and would receive him unto Himself. Father enjoyed fair health during most of his life. The last year his health began to fail, when medical aid was sought, but his health could not be restored. He attained the age of seventy-two years, five months and two days. Mourning his departure are, his deeply bereaved wife, five children, Herbert of Igloo, South Dakota, Claude of Durham, Kansas, Esther, Mrs. Peter B. Koehn of Galva, Kansas, Rhoda, Mrs. Ike Smith of Halstead, Kansas and Marie, Mrs. Jesse Dirks of Scott City, Kansas, twenty-one grandchildren, seven great grandchildren, two brothers, one sister and many relatives and friends. We mourn not as those without hope, for we feel assured that he is sweetly resting from his labours. Father is peacefully sleeping, resting at last In Paradise, his trials are past. In patience he suffered, his pain he bore, Till God called him home to suffer no more. Now in the room is silence, all is still, The place is vacant, it is God's will. Intensely he suffered with heaving of breast, But God gave release and father is at rest. ---Mother, children and grandchildren We wish to thank all for remembering us in prayer and in deeds of kindness and helpfulness shown to us in our bereavement. Funeral services were held at the Logan church. at 2 P. M. on March 26th, 1947, where Min. F. H. Wenger spoke from texts, Isaiah 3:10-11, Numbers 23:8-10. Also made closing remarks and prayer at grave. Interment was made in the Logan cemetery. Information courtesy of FAG Contributor by Lorraine Richards.
