Carl Schartner, was born Nov. 27, 1945, and died July 5, 1956, at the age of 10 years, 7 months, and 9 days. Death was caused by drowning. Since the death of her mother last March, Loretta took a very keen interest in the home caring for her sister and three brothers, which were all younger. She was very conscientious, even trival matters she would readily take back or confess. We are assured that she rests with her mother at the Throne of God. Loretta met her fatal end in the Somonette River, eight miles south-west of Crooked Creek, Alberta, Canada. A part of the Schartner family had a family gathering at the river where also a number of children and men went bathing. Loretta apparently lost footing when caught by an undercurrent and swiftly went down stream. Men in the river, as well as others nearby went to the rescue. The current was so swift that they endangered their own lives. The father likewise exhausted himself trying to locate her but failed. A rope was strung across the river as an anchor and after an hour of searching the body was located by Bro. John Friesen. Artifical respiration was applied for two hours until she was officially pronounced dead. Loretta leaves to mourn her altogether too sudden departure, her father, one sister, and three brothers, both grandmothers, uncles, aunts, many cousins, and a host of friends. We mourn, not as those who have no hope, but having lost a great friend and a little child. Funeral services were held in the Linden Church, Monday, July 9, with Min. Dan Boese spending the services with remarks and prayer. Min. Ed. Boese spoke from Job 1:21; 14:1, 2, 5, and several verses from Matt. 19. Min. Jac. Berg made closing remarks at the graveside.
