After a lingering illness of several months duration, Mrs. Andrew Bosma was relieved from her suffering at her home in this village on Saturday, October 8th at three o'clock in the morning. During the past four weeks her illness caused her much distress and in spite of medical skill and the kind ministrations of her friends and neighbors, she suffered most intensely at times.
When death enters a home his visitation is always accompanied by sorrow and a dark shadow hovers where once dwelt happiness. Even though we realize that his coming brings relief to a sufferer, the thought of parting from a beloved member of the family, especially if it happens to be a loving wife and devoted mother, always fills our hearts with infinite sorrow and grief and reason as you may, the pain caused by this parting remains, and only the gentle hand of time can assuage it.
Mrs. Mary Bosma, the youngest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Agge Aggen was born here on Sept, 11, 1875. In 1898 she was joined in marriage with Mr. Andrew Bosma, the surviving husband.
Her untimely departure is also mourned by 5 children, the youngest being 2 years of age. Deceased is also survived by her aged mother and by six brothers: Simon, Stinus, and Henry of this village, Conrad of Wittenberg, Jochim of Port Washington, Andreas of Chilton and one sister, Mrs. H. Ahlf.
Funeral services, conducted by Rev. Landsberger were held on Monday afternoon at the Reformed church, in the presence of an extremely large gathering of the many friends and relatives of the deceased.
