The death of Mrs. Frank Diedrich, who passed away Tuesday of last week brought great sorrow to her family and friends and to many who held her near and dear.

Mrs. Diedrich's death occurred in the Sealy hospital, where she had been taken for skilled medical attention and nursing in the hope of restoring her to normal health, but all proved futile and of no avail.

Funeral services were conducted Thursday afternoon from the family home with Rev. Flachmier officiating, burial being in the Mentz Lutheran cemetery. [Zoar Cemetery] P. K. Shatto of Columbus was in charge of arrangements.

Deceased was born February 4, 1865 and at the time of her death was 76 years, 5 months and 11 days old. She was the daughter of the late Mr. And Mrs. Daniel Meyer and a lifelong resident of the Cat Spring and Mentz community. On December 3, 1940, she and her husband enjoyed their 51st wedding anniversary. God called the quiet, patient, trusting soul to her Heavenly home, where she will ever rest from pain and sorrow. All of her daughters were at her bedside when the final summons came.

Mrs. Diedrich was a member of the Lutheran church over a period of many years and was held in high esteem by all who knew her. She is survived by her grief stricken husband and four daughters, Mrs. Annie Stuessel of Sealy, Mrs. Bennie Kenter of Bellville, Mrs. Ed. Dittmar of Cat Spring and Mrs. Mary Duddleston of Bernardo. Ten grandchildren also survive as follows, Orville and Estella Stuessel of Sealy, Lee Allen Dittmar of Houston, Mrs. Henry Kretzschmar of Eagle Lake, Mrs. David Konesheck of Telferner, Chas. Duddleston, Jr., of Columbus, Glen Dittmar of Cat Spring, Franklin and Leslie Kenter of Houston and Mrs. Juluist Vykukal of Sealy. The following five great grandchildren are also left, Joy Arlene and Reva Louise Kenter of Houston, Henry Lloyd Kretzschmar of Eagle Lake and Lowell Wayne and Eloise Kay Stuessel of Sealy. Three sisters and three brothers survive, Mrs. Juluist Kotzebue of Columbus, Mrs. Phillip Kansteiner of Cat Spring, Mrs. Edwin Berger, Henry and Dan Meyer of the Cat Spring Community and Louis Meyer of New Ulm together with numerous nieces and nephews.

Pallbearers were her six grandsons Orville Stuessel, Franklin and Leslie Kenter, Charlie Duddleston, Lee Allen and Glenn Dittmar.

The Headlight joins many friends in extending sympathy to the family circle in their grief.
