Mary accepted Christ as her Saviour in her youth and united with the East Union Mennonite Church and was a faithful and devoted Christian. Mary always had high ideals which she beautifully expressed in the fine poems which she composed during her last years and which were published in the Mennonite Church periodicals as well as in other publications. She spent almost 10 years in the home of Dean R. A. Kuever of Iowa City as maid. She often spoke of the happy experiences she enjoyed with them. In May, 1942, she submitted to a surgical operation for removal of cancer which did not bring the perfect relief she had hoped for and from that time on she suffered a great deal. She bore her pain patiently and was always resigned to God's will. Her passing is mourned by her parents, a sister, Martha N., who faithfully cared for her constantly during her illness, 3 brothers (William, Chicago, Ill.; A. Lloyd, Kansas City; Jacob F., Marion, Ia.), and a host of relatives and friends. Funeral services were held at East Union Church Sunday afternoon, Sept. 19, conducted by the local pastor, D. J. Fisher, assisted by A. C. Good, Sterling, Ill. Interment in the East Union Cemetery.
