Gospel Herald - Vol. XX, No. 38 - December 22, 1927, pages 830, 831Shantz.--Sister Caroline Burgiman*, widow of the late Jonathan Shantz of near Carstairs, Alta., died Dec. 3, 1927. She was born in 1855; aged 72 y. In 1876 she was married to Jonathan Shantz and 9 children blessed this union. In 1901 Bro. and Sister Shantz came West with their family and settled on the home still occupied by Sister Shantz at her death. Bro. Shantz died in 1914 and three children died a few years after. Two children had passed away while still in the East, which leaves 4 to mourn the loss of a kind mother (Urias, Jonathan, Verna, Mrs. Elmer Shantz, and Edna, Mrs. Carl Semberg); also six sisters and 3 brothers. Sister Shantz was a faithful member of the Mennonite Church and will be greatly missed. She was very patient in her last illness, and while she suffered greatly she was anxious that God's will should be done in her life. She was laid to rest Dec. 4, in the West Zion Cemetery beside her husband and children. Services at the house were conducted by Bro. Abe Riest and at the church by Bro. Isaac Miller and Bro. H. J. Harder. May God comfort the bereaved.
