Elizabeth (Hoover) Hartzler was born June 22, 1835 in Alderman Co., Ont.; died in St. Joe Co., Mich., Apr. 21, 1908; aged 72y. 9m. 29d. In 1854 she, with her parents, came to Clinton Two., Elkhart Co., Ind. In 1855 she was married to David Grabber, to which union were born nine children. Her husband and four children preceded her to the spirit world. In 1900 she was married to Jonathan A. Hartzler, her surviving husband.
It was the writer's privilege to become acquainted with Sister Hartzler 41 years ago and can truly say she was one of those unmovable, unchangeable Christians, always abiding in the faith. Her life and works still follow her. Her five children are all members of the Mennonite Church, the church of her faith.
She left 27 grandchildren and three great- grandchildren. During the long winter months she left some very encouraging work for each one of the children, also remembering the family of her daughter who died about 20 months ago. While living near Mancelona, Mich., she was very much interested in mission work, but felt herself rather poor and for a while would fast on Sunday and put the price of that meal to the mission fund. Funeral services were conducted by Amos S. Cripe and Harvey Friesner. Peace to her remains. Funeral and interment at the Clinton Brick Church.
