He had always been well and active and death came without a moment's warning. He had done his morning's work, eaten his breakfast and had sat down for a little while. His wife dicovered him helpless and hurried across the street to Dr. Johnston's, but the doctor found that death had come. George Schafer was born Sept 23, 1853 in Frank Russia and was thus the age of 68 years, three months and ten day at the time of his death. In 1877 he migrated to America, settling first at Lincoln, Nebraska, and then at Clubertson Nebraska. In 1882 he came to Walla Walla where his first wife (Margaret Weiderman) died. In 1883 with his daughters he removed to Bickleton where he resided for about seven years. He married again and to this union one son was born. In 1891 the family moved to Adams county, which has been their home since. They first lived on a farm southwest of Ritzville, later moving to town. Mr. Schafer was one of the pillars of the German Methodist church here. He was a trustee, steward, and teacher in Sunday school. He is survived by two daughters; Mrs. Katie Munn of Spokane and Mrs. Anna Oestreich of Ritzville, and by one son, Sam Schafer; by two step-daughters and three step-sons, two of whom are John Oestreich and Chris J. Oestreich of Ritzville and by one brother, Conrad Schafer, and by a half-brother and a half-sister in Canada. The funeral was held in the German Methodist church this afternoon and was largely attended. It was conducted by Rev. Mann, the local pastor and Rev. L Gaiser of Rosalia. Mr. Schafer was a fine type of citizen, generous, honorable in his dealing, kindly and thoughtful in his home. The Journal Times January 5, 1922 Courtsey of Sue Gardner & gapwork90.
