Lake Odessa Wave-Times Fri. June 20, 1919

HANNAH C. SMITH
Hannah Catherine Smith, nee Schuler, was born in Woodland township, Barry 
county, Mich.,Dec. 19, 1862, and did at her home near Woodland, Mich., June 11, 
1919, aged 56 years and 2 days.

Her girlhood days were spent at home with her parents. She was united in 
marriage with Daniel Smith, Jan. 24, 1889. Her married life was a happy one, she 
sharing gladly the joys and sorrows of the home. Her entire married life was 
spent at her home south of Woodbury.

At the age of 13 she surrendered her heart and life to God, being converted 
under the labors of the Rev. C. Ude. At the same time she united with the 
Woodland Evangelical church of which she remained a faithful member until the 
end.

Mrs Smith was a faithful Christian and a loyal work in the church. As long as 
she was able, she gladly did all she could in order to promote the cause of 
Christ. Her faith in the Savior never wavered-though in the midst of intense 
suffering, she always expressed a firm trust in Christ.

For over two years, mrs Smith has been a great sufferer. During the time she was 
on her bed almost continually, being able to be up only a few times. Though she 
feared not death, yet her hope was to recover, so that she could minister to the 
needs of her household. This hope she retained to the end. But finally she heard 
the call of the Master, calling her from labor to reward, and she answered the 
summons.

Mrs. Smith was a true and faithful wife and a loyal neighbor and friend. She 
leaves to mourn her departure, her now sorrowing companion; one brother, S.C. 
Schuler; two sisters, Mrs Fred Wagner and Miss Julia Schuler, besides a host of 
relatives and friends. Her sufferings have ended-she is at rest with God.

The funeral was held at the home Friday afternoon, conducted by her pastor, Rev. 
H. Stressman. The body was laid to rest in Lakeside cemetery.

                               CARD OF THANKS
