At the age of 12 years she united with the Mennonite Church at Yellow Creek. She was deeply concerned for the salvation of the lost and prayed especially for each one that united with the Church since she was converted, also for all the saints.
"Not now, but in the coming years
It may be in the better land,
We'll read the meaning of our tears
And there, sometime, we'll understand."
Funeral services were held at the Yellow Creek Frame Mennonite Church conducted by Bro Benj Good of Orrville, Ohio, assisted by Bros Wm. Ramer and Paul Hoover.
