Our dear mother and grandmother, Fannie Elizabeth Yost Dyck, was born to Peter E. and Susanna Megli Yost, January 20, 1893, at Plymouth, Nebraska. She passed away very peacefully at Mercy Hospital, Moundridge, Kansas, December 28, 1980, reaching the age of 87 years, 11 months, and 8 days.Mother received her education near Plymouth, moving with her parents to near Hesston, Kansas in 1912.Upon the Holy Spirit convicting her of her lost condition, she made a full surrender and commitment to the Lord, received forgiveness of her sins and peace in her soul. Upon the confession of her faith, she was baptized at the age of twenty-one by the late Min. F. C. Fricke, becoming a member of the Church of God in Christ, Mennonite, which faith she embraced and held throughout her life, leaving a good testimony of salvation, which we cherish. She often admonished us to be faithful and keep our way clear between us and God, even as she also in her times of trial and test continued to seek the face of God and endeavored to keep her way clear.November 9, 1919, she was joined in holy matrimony to Jacob H. Dyck of Hillsboro, Kansas, sharing joys and sorrows for nearly forty-seven years. October 12, 1966, her loving companion and our father was taken from her, leaving her with many lonesome hours for over fourteen years. To this union were born four sons and three daughters.Soon after their marriage, they moved from Hillsboro to a farm north of Hesston, living in this area the rest of their lives.
Mother was devoted to her husband and will be remembered for her love and concern for the family. Especially during times of sickness or trouble, she was there to comfort and help. Above all, we cherish her deep concern for the salvation of her family and others. She would pose the question, "Are the children and grandchildren all in and making sure they will make it to that celestial city?" Her Bible and hymnbook were often open on the table at home, and later in the Manor she was found reading the Scripture.She carried a concern for the mission outreach and expressed this even when it reached into her own family to serve. During World War II, and after, when several sons were called to serve many miles away from home in alternative service, Mother's letters and prayers were always dependable.Many memories were renewed several years ago when she accompanied some of her children to Nebraska where she grew up and was able to step into the old house where she used to live.Mother had a friendly and hospitable disposition which won her many friends. She, together with Father, often expressed their love, concern, and sympathy to others by food, help, visiting, and other deeds of kindness. She enjoyed cooking and served many meals to friends and relatives through the years. Mother and Father shared their home for thirteen years, caring for Grandma Yost, which required many hours caring for her needs.She enjoyed reasonably good health until 1976, when her health began to fail. April 11, 1977, she entered the Moundridge Manor Nursing Home. November 24, 1980, she was taken to Mercy Hospital, remaining for nearly five weeks when she passed away.We deeply feel the loss of Mother, but in our hearts feel assured she has gone to be with her Maker on yonder shore where there will be no more partings, sickness, or death. We wish to express our deep appreciation for all the deeds of kindness, prayers, and visits during her time at the Manor and Mercy Hospital and since her passing.Surviving are four sons and three daughters: Harold P. and wife Elva Mae, Hesston; Neva and husband Llewellyn Schmidt, Newton; Clifford, Hesston; John M. and wife Alice, Moundridge; Margaret, and husband Reuben Ensz, Inman; Velma, Hesston; Kenneth and wife Leona, Newton; twenty-three grandchildren and thirty great-grandchildren; two brothers: Harvey Yost, Greensburg, and Earvey Yost, of Showalter Villa, Hesston; and many other relatives and friends.Preceding her were her husband Jacob; two brothers, Alph Yost and Joe Yost; and sister Amanda, Mrs. Elmer Berner.Funeral services were held December 31, 1980, at the Meridian Church, Hesston, Kansas. Ministers Harry Wenger, Franklin Wenger, and Eldon Wenger shared the service. Burial was in the Meridian Cemetery.
