Tschetter, our beloved husband and father, son of Paul and Maria (Walter) Tschetter, was born in Hutchinson county, South Dakota, on Oct. 29, 1882. He departed from this life at Sioux Valley hospital, Sioux Falls, South Dakota at 6:15 a.m. on August 6, 1955. About 7:30 on the previous evening on Highway No. 16, about six miles west of Sioux Falls, he met with a serious accident which was the cause of his death. He attained the age of 72 years, nine months and eight days. In 1904 he realized his lost condition, and on Feb. 28 he found peace with God. On May 22 of the same year he was baptized by Heinrich Wiebe and taken into the membership of the Salem K.M.B. church at Bridgewater, South Dakota, whose faithful member he remained until death. In 1911 the church called him to the office of the ministry to which he was ordained on Dec. 26, 1913, by Jacob J. Hofer and John Esau. After several years the church called him to the office of elder to which he was ordained by the same brethren on Sept.20, 1925. By the grace of the Salem congregation and the K.M.B. Conference for 40 years until his retirement. Since that time he served the Lord as time and opportunity would permit. He joined Anna Glanzer in holy matrimony on Dec. 7, 1905, with Dietrich Goossen officiating. For four months short of 50 years [photo of Rev. D. W. Tschetter] we shared joys and sorrows. This union was blessed with seven children, all of whom are present in this hour of bereavement. They are: Paul, Denver, Colo., Edward, Dolton, South Dakota; Mrs. Joe Enz (Lucy), Dinuba, Calif.; Rosa, Bridgewater; Benny, Sioux Falls; Alfred, Fresno, Calif.; and Mrs. Gideon Bertsch (Mabel), Bridgewater. Also mourning his passing are two brothers: Jacob of Emery, South Dakota; and Joseph, Chicago, Ill.; two sons-in-law, four daughters-in-law, 14 grandchildren , two great-grandchildren and a large circle of relatives and friends. He was preceded in death by his parents, one brother, four sisters, and one grandchild. His entire life was spent on the farm where he was born and which he had received from his father. There are many family incidents which we will long remember and cherish. He passed through several serious operations. He took every opportunity to better prepare himself for service to God and to his church. (MWR 25 Aug 1955 p. 8; see also Who's Who among the Mennonites, 1943)
