Lake Odessa Wave, Dec 1942

Mildred Klahn, the second child of Charles and Myrtie Klahn was born near 
Elmdale, Mich., March 6, 1894, and departed this life December 8, 1942, after a 
brief illness.  She spent a great part of her young life on the farm where she 
was born and attended the rural school near her home.  Later she graduated from 
the Lowell High School where she proved herself a good student winning the love 
and admiration of all who knew her.

She was a regular attendant of the First United Brethren church, Lake Odessa, 
and was a very efficient Sunday school teacher.  Her splendid spirit of 
cooperation and readiness to serve were characteristic of her life.  Her sunny 
disposition and the thought of pleasure for others won for her many friends.  
About a year ago she was married to Mervill Stevens of Odessa township and 
spent a very happy 11 months of married life with her husband on a farm east of 
the former West Odessa church.

Besides her husband she leaves a brother, LaVerne, who lives at the old home, 
two nieces, Phyllis and Lois, one nephew, Fredrick, besides a host of other 
relatives and friends to mourn their loss.

Funeral services were held in the Congregational church at Clarksville with the 
Rev. E.A. Shulls, pastor of the First United Brethren church in Lake Odessa, 
officiating.  Interment was made in the South Boston cemetery.
