When she was five years old she moved with her parents, Peter Penners, to Langdon, N. Dak., where she grew up. At the age of 23 years she answered the call of her Saviour and upon remission and the confession of her faith she was baptized and added unto the Church of God. At the age of 25 years she accepted the weighty responsibility of becoming a wife and the mother to father's six children. This marriage was blessed with five children, three sons and two daughters, who survive to mourn the loss. Father passed away on August 20, 1923, leaving us an assurance of eternal life. This left mother with the children to look after and also the farm. Mother worked hard, but still had time to help others. The time came and her days were numbered. She became sick and sought medical aid. On June 10, 1943 she underwent an operation, but her condition remained uncertain. The latter days she suffered much. She felt that the time of her departure was at hand. She proved herself, prayed often to her Saviour, confessed where she felt she had failed. She admonished us to take the time more earnestly, and not be too engrossed in the material. Last Sunday she remarked that it would be twenty one years on the 20th, that father passed away and that she probably would pass away on the same day, but that it seemed hard for her to wait that long. She lived till that day, Sunday morning at 1:30, when she softly went to sleep, leaving us the firm assurance that she had gone to a better land. She leaves us, the ten children, 34 grandchildren, 3 great grandchildren, 2 brothers, and 5 sisters, and a large number of friends and relatives to mourn her all too early departure. Her parents, one daughter and 2 sisters preceded her in death. — The Children
