The Carson City Gazette, Thursday, April 27, 1944


Mrs. Martha Reimer, widow of the last Emanuel Reimer, died at the home of her 
son, Glenn Reimer, in Grand Rapids, April 17, after a long and painful illness, 
at the age of 82 years. Mrs. Reimer was born on a farm south of Carson City and 
with her twin sister, Mary Townsend, came to Palo in their early teens, where 
they grew to womanhood and made Palo their permanent home.  In early life Mrs. 
Reimer was converted and baptized into the Baptist church of which she was an 
active member for over 60 years.  For many years she had charge of the infant 
class in the Sunday school where many children received their early Christian 
training under her teaching.  She was a life member of the Ladies Aid Society 
and an active member of the Missionary Circle.

Funeral services were held from the Baptist church Thursday afternoon, 
conducted by Rev. Lewis Herrick, an intimate friend of the family.  Music was 
furnished by Mrs. Guy  Comstock and Mrs. Ben McKimball with Mrs. Carol Wingeier 
at the piano.  Bearers were Byron Haskin of Ionia, Lewis Woodruff of Grand 
Rapids, Fred Minier, Harvey Stines, Mm. McLaren and O. A. Braman.  Flowers were 
in charge of B. Greenhoe and two helpers of Grand Rapids.  Burial was made in 
the family lot of Palo cemetery beside her husband who passed away four years 
ago.  To mourn her passing she leaves one son, Glenn, of Grand Rapids, several 
nephews and nieces besides many lifelong friends.
