She peacefully fell asleep in the Steinbach Bethesda Hospital on September 16, 1983, reaching the age of 93 years, 10 months, and 20 days. She lived at Halstead, Kansas, until the year 1916, when, together with her parents, she moved to Swalwell, Alberta, residing there for several years. At the age of fourteen, she repented and found forgiveness of sins, becoming a member of the Church of God in Christ, Mennonite through baptism on February 11, 1904. In spite of various struggles, it was her desire to remain faithful to her vows, encouraging her family to remain faithful to the Lord unto the end. She often expressed a concern for her grandchildren and prayed for their salvation. She found her life's companion in our father, Frank F. Goossen, being married on February 29, 1920, at Swalwell, Alberta. They settled in the Rosenort community, where they farmed and raised their family. To this union were born three sons and two daughters. They shared joys and sorrows for over fifty-five years. Since Father was handicapped in speech and hearing, Mother carried a heavier load in the rearing of the family and also in the domestic duties of life. As children, we appreciate her efforts in standing by Father in his needs and in guiding us children into the narrow way. On May 9, 1975, our father passed away, leaving her a widow for a little over eight years. In December of 1965, Mother sought medical assistance, and her doctor diagnosed congested heart failure; thereafter her physical condition gradually worsened. They moved to the Greenland Home in October, 1971. Shortly after the Greenland Home was damaged by a tornado, Mother was admitted to the Morris Hospital, then to Steinbach Resthaven Home, and after that to Maplewood Manor in Steinbach, where she remained until August 15, 1983. After a stroke, she was admitted to the Steinbach Hospital, remaining in that condition until she passed away. Though life will be empty without Mother and we will miss her, we are glad that her earthly, physical suffering has ceased. Those left to cherish fond memories are: her children: Dan and wife Elizabeth, Rosenort, Manitoba; Paul and wife Hulda, Louisville, Georgia; Leona and husband Ben Rempel, Morris, Manitoba; one daughter-in-law, Susie, Rich Hill, Missouri; one son-in-law, Walter Ensz, Glenn, California; twenty-eight grandchildren; forty-one great-grandchildren; besides many other relatives and friends. Preceding her in death were: her husband, son Albert, daughter Luella, her parents, four brothers, two sisters, and two great-grandsons. She was the last living member of her immediate family. We thank the medical staffs of the hospital and homes who have kindly and lovingly cared for her. We appreciate your help at this time, and may God bless you. Funeral services were held on September 20, 1983, with the home ministers in charge. Burial was in the church cemetery.
