AFTER YEARS OF SUFFERING MRS. JOHN HUMMELL PASSES
For Nearly Three Years Mrs. John Hummel Has Been An Invalid, Death Came 
Saturday

For nearly three years Mrs. John  Hummel has been a sufferer from Paralysis. 
Many times the end was thought to be near but the Death angel has passed by 
until last Sunday when she went home.

She was beloved by many and the best of care has been given her during her 
illness.

The funeral was held at the Congregational church Wednesday, Rev. Lash, the 
pastor preaching the sermon.

OBITUARY

Catherine Price was born in Seneca County, Ohio, Feb. 11, 1852 and departed 
this life at her home in Lake Odessa Jan. 1, 1922. In 1870 she was united in 
marriage to John Hummel.

Mrs. Hummel has been an invalid for over two years and has borne her suffering 
patiently, always looking forward to some relief which never came. Memories of 
her cheerful disposition and helping hand in  time of need will always live 
with those who knew her best. She united with the Congregational church several 
years ago.  Mrs. Hummel is survived by her husband and three children, Mrs. 
Catherine Rosgel of Grand Rapids, Rollie of St. Joseph and Mrs. Lottie Bouche 
of Lake Odessa, and one grand child. 

Our Sister has gone to that "haven of rest,"
Of which she did sing, yes oe'r and oe'r
to meet her dear Savior and all of the blest,
Safe at home on the evergreen shore.

She yielded herself to her Savior and Lord
As she patiently heard His sweet voice
And how she did hunger for more of His word
In which her glad heart did rejoice.

She longed to be healed that thus she might tell
Of Jesus' compassion and love
But better "far better He took her to dwell
In that beautiful haven above

And while she so patiently sat at his feet
Like Mary of old with her Lord,
His will became clearer, more precious, more sweet,
While feasting upon his pure word.

Come enter the haven of rest above,
Come child that sufferings are o'er:
Let other now tell the sweet message of love
Come thou and walk the golden shore.
