Obituary: Dane County, Wisconsin: Grace WACKMAN ************************************************************************ Submitted by Ruth Ann Montgomery, April 2008 © All rights reserved. http://www.usgwarchives.net/copyright.htm ************************************************************************ Died, Grace Sargent Wackman, wife of Daniel Wackman, at her home in Brooklyn, Wisconsin, August 3rd, 1897, aged 45 years and 11 days. The funeral services were held at the house and were conducted by Rev. O. P. Bestor of Evansville. After the reading of the 23rd Psalm the choir sang "There Cometh a Day of Rest." The sermon was from 2nd Cor. 5. 1. The attendance was very large, consisting of friends and relations from Monticello, Dayton, Evansville, Oregon, Reedsburg, Brooklyn and the surrounding country. All came to express their high appreciation of the deceased and to show their esteem for, and extend their sympathy to the living. Grace will be missed by all who knew her. Let us all try to so live that when we are gone we too will be missed in the community in which we have lived and in the home we have adorned. Those who are left to mourn have the sympathy of all; but we are all only waiting till our change shall come. August 6, 1897, Enterprise, p. 1, Col. 7, Evansville, Wisconsin
