Read More	Our mother and grandmother, Marie Toews Jantz, was born to Peter and Katherine Toews on May 8, 1902, at Kleefeld, Manitoba. She peacefully fell asleep in the Lord at the Goot Hills Hospital, Calgary, Alberta, on July 7, 1980, reaching the age of seventy-eight years. At the age of two, she came to Alberta with her parents, who settled in the Swalwell area. Here she received her basic education at the New Hope School. Due to the death of her mother, she spent most of her growing up years with her grandparents. Upon the confession of faith and true repentance, she was baptized into the Church of God in Christ Mennonite, on February 27, 1918. She embraced this faith unto the end. Mother found in Tobias Jantz her life's companion. They were married April 2, 1933, sharing the joys and sorrows of life until February of 1970, when Father was taken from her side. She had many lonesome hours as a widow, yet with a simple, trusting faith in God, she accepted her lot with fortitude. Mother was of a quiet and peaceful nature. Her home meant much to her. She was not without struggles; in her youth she learned to confide in others and thereby live victoriously. We shall cherish the trust she had in her Maker and her concern for the welfare of us as children and grandchildren. The promises of God were real in her life, even though she often felt the need of prayer to live victoriously. During the last few months, her health began to fail. On May 23, 1980, she was admitted to the Goot Hills Hospital intensive care unit. After a lengthy stay in the hospital, she recovered sufficiently to return to her home once more. This was her desire, and God granted her request. However, it was not for long. She was readmitted to the hospital; where, after a few days, God called her Home to be at rest forever. We mourn the loss of our mother, but in our hearts are assured that she is now resting with the saints under the altar of God. Her calm acceptance of her illness and her desire for Heaven are an inspiration for us to follow. Her last words were a German prayer, so precious to her: "Herr sei mir gnadich, Vergabe meine Unvollkommenheit. Amen." She leaves to mourn: one son, Eldon and wife Betty; three daughters; Joyce and John Evans, Lillian and Ted Wacker, Mildred and Jerry Penner, all of the surrounding area; also six grandsons and one granddaughter; three brothers: Peter Toews, Ithaca, Michigan; Abe Toews, Linden, Alberta; and Otto Toews; six sisters: Anna, Mrs. John Fricke, Ithaca, Michigan; Margaret, Mrs. Albert Amoth, Bonners Ferry, Idaho; Susan, Mrs. Jack Spence, Glenn, California; Minnie, Mrs. Robert Ludwig, Winton, California; Francis, Mrs. John Cupples, and Leah, Mrs. Anthony Ferrits, of Atwater, California; and a host of relatives and friends. Mother was predeceased by her husband, three sons, and one sister. Funeral services were held July 12, 1980, at the Church of God in Christ, Mennonite, Linden, Alberta, with the home ministers in charge. Graveside services were by Min. Dewey Unruh, Stettler, Alberta.
