Ritchey, Sister Orpha, nee Maust, wife of Bro. I. S. Ritchey, died at her home, Towner, Colo., Feb. 8, 1910, aged 26 years. Her sorrowing husband and two little boys, aged three and six, accompanied the remains to Meyersdale, Pa., the girlhood home of the deceased, where interment was made, after funeral by Eld. Swigart, of Huntingdon. Sister Ritchey united with the church when fifteen. Her life was one of love and thoughtfulness, and with her generous heart and charming personality she influenced many people to live lives of Christian devotion. In her dying moments she talked calmly of leaving her dear ones and of her home beyond.
