Last rites for Mrs. John Wagner were held Sunday afternoon at 2 o’clock at the Berge-Thenhaus-Howser-Swoboda Home for Funerals and at 2:30 o’clock at St. Paul’s Lutheran Church. The Rev. John Witt was in charge and interment was in Prospect Hill Cemetery. Pallbearers were Lewis Wachter, Herman Wachter, Jake Strashelm, Jake Weber, Pete Weber and Henry Gattman.

In 1891 she came to the United States and resided at Harvard, Neb., where she was married to Mr. Sinner. Two children were born to them. In 1911 she married John Wagner and went with him to live in the southern part of the state. Later they lived near Hadar.
