She is buried in the Oakgrove Amish burying ground, where a large concourse of friends and relatives assembled to pay the last tribute of respect to the beloved sister. She was a faithful member of the Amish Mennonite church and leaves a husband and two daughters to mourn their loss. She was fully resigned to her heavenly father's will, and longed to go to her eternal home. Services by J.K. Yoder at the home and David Hostetler at the meeting house, from Isa. 38:1 "Set thine house in order, for thou shalt die and not live." [2]
