Ulrich. - Anna, daughter of David and Anna Reeser Ulrich, was born near Eureka, Ill., April 19, 1877; died July 15, 1942; aged 65 y. 2 m. 26 d. The family lived for a number of years near Metamora, moving to Eureka about 21 years ago. Following the death of her mother, 9 months ago, she had made her home with her sister, Mrs. W. N. Schrock. Since her youth she has been a faithful member of the Roanoke Mennonite Church. For more than 2 years her health has been failing. Easter Sunday was the last time she was able to attend church, and since then she has been confined to her home. She will always be remembered for her thought-fulness, kind deeds, and generosity of giving to all. The motto she lived in the life was truly "It is more blessed to give than to receive." She was preceded in death by her father and mother. She is survived by 6 sisters (Mrs. Barbara Schertz, Mrs. Fannie Schrock, Mrs. Ella Schertz, Mrs. Viola Harnish, all of Eureka; Mrs. Emma Schertz, Fisher, Ill.; and Mrs. Elizabeth Schertz, Falfurrias, Texas), 4 brothers [Christian M., Peter N., David, and Emanuel, all of Eureka). She will long be remembered by her nieces, nephews, and a host of friends. Funeral services in charge of Bros. Ezra Yordy and Emanuel Ulrich. Texts, John 11:43; Psa. 90
