Read More	Our dear Mother and Grandmother Mary Schartner, nee Esau, second eldest daughter of Abram K. Esau, was born at Dallas, Oregon on August 23, 1891. At the age of 14 she gave her life to the Lord and was added to the fellowship in the Church in Christ through baptism on July 2, 1905. Mother grew to womanhood at Steinbach, Manitoba in the home of her parents. On April 1, 1917, our parents were joined in the bonds of Holy Matrimony at Linden, Alberta, sharing joys and sorrows for more then 48 years and 8 months. The first and greater part of their married life was spent in Alberta, except for one year which they spent in Manitoba. In 1948 they moved to B. C., where they resided till the present time. It was a great shock to all of us when the news came that Father and Mother had both met with sudden death in a car accident at noon of Dec. 4, on the way from their home at Mt. Lehman to Salmon Arm, B. C., where they had intended to spend some time. Mother was instantly killed, while Father lingered on in an unconscious state for four hours, when he too, followed the summons to go to their mutual Home with the Lord. In spite, of Father's chronic heart condition his cheerful and optimistic outlook on life and his readiness to testify for the Lord often proved a blessing to the many people he always enjoyed meeting and visiting. Mother many times showed her love to others in exercising hospitality and helpfulness to those in need. On a number of occasions she took in the poor who were in need of a home, or those who needed special care, and cared for them as for her own family. They both often expressed their deep concern for the spiritual welfare of their children as well as others. During their last days and weeks of their sojourn upon this earth they frequently referred to a possible early departure and we feel that the Lord gave special grace for them to prepare themselves. They leave to mourn their so sudden departure 2 sons: Abe and his wife, Vera; Albert and his wife, Margaret, both of Mt. Lehman. 7 daughters: Linda and Jake Loetkeman, Enderby, B. C.; Florence and Frank F. Isaac, Sinclair, Man.; Helen and Alva Toews, Linden, Alta.; Elda and Harvey R. Toews, Edberg, Alta.; Lavina and Albert Enns, Linden, Alta.; Nettie and Gordan Dueck, Mt. Lehman, B. C., and Josie and Abe Regehr, Linden, Alta. 44 grandchildren and 11 great-grandchildren. Death was unknown in our family since not a single child, grandchild or great-grandchild has preceded them in death. Father is also survived by his aged stepmother, Rebecca Schartner, 11 sister and 5 brothers, while his parents, 2 brothers and 2 sisters have gone on before. Mother is survived by 2 brothers and 4 sisters. Her parents, 3 sisters and 3 brothers preceded her in death. Funeral services were held in the Church of God in Christ on Ross and Downes Rds. on Dec. 9, 1965. Minister A. J. Wilson made opening remarks and prayer. Minister Frank P. Wiebe brought the message from Psalm 90, with special emphasis on verses 2, 10 and 12. Minister Isaac Toews added very fitting remarks from Psalm 50:1. Interment was made in the Hazelwood Cemetery, where after reading verses of scripture from Psalm 49:15; St. John 6:40 and St. John 11:25, Minister Alph. Baerg had the committal prayer. May they rest in peace.--The family.
