GOSPEL HERALD - Vol. XXXIV, No . 30 - October 23, 1941 - pg 647

Augsburger.-Mabel M., daughter of Jacob and Catherine Yordy was born in Woodford Co., Ill., Aug. 3, 1891. She had been in failing health for some months and after submitting to a major operation passed away at the Mennonite Hospital, Bloomington, Ill., Oct. 6, 1941, aged 50 y. 2 m. 3 d. She was united in marriage to Elmer Augsburger Feb. 2, 1915. She leaves her sorrowing companion, 4 daughters (Mardelle Kenogy of Eureka, Verna, nurse at Mennonite Hospital, Darlene and Florence), 6 sons (Merlyn, Dean, Delbert, Donald, Clayton, and Joseph, all at home), 1 grandchild, 5 brothers, 6 sisters, and a host of nieces nephews, and friends. Two infant daughters, 2 sisters, and her parents have passed on before. She confessed Christ as her personal Saviour and united with the Mennonite Church in her early youth. Her life was one of loyalty to her Saviour and her church. She lived a beautiful, unassuming life. Her children speak affectionately of their mother, and in accordance with the Divine Word "her children arise up, and call her blessed." Today we mourn not as those who have no hope. "For we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also that sleep in Jesus will God bring with him." The funeral was held at the Waldo Mennonite Church of which she was a member, in charge of Bishop J. D. Hartzler with Bishop Ezra Yordy assisting.
