Gallstones were the cause of her death. She had enjoyed good health all her life until the last three months, when her health began to fail. She was bedfast only 4 weeks. Her sufferings were borne with Christian patience and submission to His will. At an early age she accepted Christ as her Savior, and united with Hersheys Mennonite Church, and remained faithful until death. She was the last of a family of 8 children. She is survived by 11 nieces and 7 nephews. Aunt Sue will be greatly missed in the home and in the community. She was always ready in her kind and quiet way to help those in need. Funeral services were conducted at the home and at Hersheys Mennonite Church by Bros. John Senger, C. M. Brackbill, and A. L. Martin. Interment in the adjoining cemetery. 
"Aunt Sue is gone but not forgotten, 
Never will her memory fade; 
Loving thoughts will always linger 
Round the grave where she is laid."
