Notes - Obit: Herald of Truth, March 15, 1899.
Magdalena Garber, nee Dellenbach, fell asleep in the Lord, at the home of her son-in-law, Peter Steider, near Metamora, Ill., where she had been making her home for some time, on Jan. 19th, 1899, at the ripe old age of 84 years, 4 months and 2 days.
Her husband, Christian Garber, preceded her to eternity about five years ago.
Eight children were born to them, of whom four survive the mother, to mourn her departure, but they mourn not as those who have no hope.
She was laid to rest Jan. 21st from the Metamora M. H. Services were held by Pre. Peter Zimmerman from Rev. 20: 12-15 and Elder Andrew Schrock from 1 Peter 1 :1-7 in German, and Elder John Smith from the same texts in English.
