Obituary- Stuver, Anna

Obituary:
RESIDENT SINCE 1862
Mrs. Anna Stuver Died at Home Wednesday.
FUNERAL ON SATURDAY
Born in Pennsylvania — Aged Resident of Warren Township — Surviving Family.

Wednesday evening at the old home place south of Luther occurred the death of Mrs. Anna Stuver, widow of the late Jacob Stuver. Death came after an illness which came upon her in the nature of a paralytic stroke some time Saturday night, since which she had not regained consciousness.

In recent weeks Mrs. Stover has been a regular attendant at the revival meetings in progress at Makin. Saturday she attended a funeral and had expected to go to church in the evening, but was feeling so badly that she gave up going. Sunday morning she was found by her daughter, Mrs. Bender, with whom she made her home on the old farm place, in an unconscious and partially paralyzed condition. It was realized that on account of her advanced age there was no hope for her recovery, though Dr. Ira Perry of Bippus gave close attention.

Anna Doney was born in Northampton county, Pa., eighty-five years ago. About sixty-two years ago, while still a resident of Pennsylvania, she became the wife of Jacob Stuver. In 1855 the family moved to Hancock county, Ohio, whence they moved to this county about 1862, settling on a farm in Warren township which had since been the family home with the exception of two years spent in Bippus.

Two years ago in February Mr. Stover passed to his reward. Mrs. Stuver continued at the home place. She is survived by the following children: Mrs. Emma King and A. L. and Edward Stuver of this city; Mrs. Savilla Keiger of Kosciusko county; Mrs. Mary McConahey of Kansas; Mrs. Ada Bender at the home place and Jacob Stuver of Clear Creek township. Prior to the disbanding of the Lutheran church near the home Mrs. Stuver was a faithful and devoted member. Recently she had been attending services at the United Brethren church.

The funeral will be held from the late residence Saturday morning at 9, Rev. W. A. Thomas probably officiating. Interment will be at the Funk cemetery.
