Herald of Truth Obituaries - December, 1894:

Gindlesperger- On the 13th of November 1894, in Paint Twp., Somerset Co., Pa., sister Rachel, widow of Bro. Peter Gindlesperger who died Dec. 24, 1893. She was buried on the 16th. Funeral services at the German Baptist church by L. A. Blough, Sam. Gindlesperger, Hiram Musselman and Joseph Berkey. Sister Gindlesperger was the mother of 13 children, 11 sons and 2 daughters; 2 sons are dead and 2 are in the far West; the remaining 9 children were present at the funeral to pay the last tribute of respect to a dear mother, but they need not mourn as those that have no hope; for while the writer visited her she expressed herself willing to depart and be with Christ. She said she had no fear of death. May God comfort the sorrowing friends.

"Farewell, dear children, one and all,
A mother from you Christ did call;
Weep not for me, it is in vain
To call me to your sight again,
But live for Jesus, this is gain
To live and die in Jesus' name."
(L. A. Blough)
