Her death was due to cancer, suffering a year or more. She finally underwent an operation, but nothing could be done to improve her condition. A longing to see Jesus and to meet Him were her wishes.

Far beyond the starry sky;
Face to face in all His glory
I shall see Him by and by."
No children of their own, but reared the two daughters of her brother, Valentine, after the death of their mother in 1891, when Barbara (Ehresman) was 8 and Mary (Teuscher) was 6.
