Grace Marie Dettwiler, youngest daughter of Silas and Salome Stutzman, was born near East Lynne, Mo., Nov. 1, 1908, died in the Northeast Hospital, Kansas City, Mo., Oct, 11, 1938, aged 29y, 11m, 10d.

In her youth she accepted Crist as her Saviour, united with the Sycamore Grove Mennonite Church, and remained faithful to him and the church until the Lord called her home.

Aug. 3, 1932, she was united in marriage to Harry Dettwiler, of near Versailles, Mo. She with her husband, resided near that town until spring of 1936, when they moved to Cass Co., Mo.

Their home was bless with 4 children, two having preceded her in death. She leaves her deeply bereaved companion and 2 children, Edwin Eugene, and Norma Fern. She is also survived by her father, mother, 5 brothers and 2 sisters (Fred, Mrs. John A. Kauffman, Lydia, Carl, Ralph, Glen and Homer,) all of the home community. One brother, Arthur Lee, preceded her in death.

As a devoted companion and mother she was true, faithful, and loving. Her kindly deeds and cheery disposition will long be remembered in the community. Her last days were filled with suffering, but she bore it all patiently. We do not understand why she had to be taken away from her home where she was so much needed, but our loss is her gain.

Funeral services were held at her home Oct. 13, by Bro. J. D. Mininger, Jacob Unruh, and John L. Mast, Bro. W. E. Helmuth and charge at the grave in the Clearfork Cemetery, where her body was laid to rest to await the resurrection morn.
