Also one brother Edward Cruen of Dayton, 18 grandchildren, 13 great grandchildren and one great great grandchild. She was a faithful member of the Pleasant Hill Church of the Brethren having united with the church under the ministry of Rev. Isaac Killhefner, deceased also, 45 years ago. She was greatly interested in her church and was always present at the Sunday services as well as prayer meeting. Failing health handicapped just a little yet she was present both morning and evening services, May 26th, just 5 days before her death. "Her presence was always an inspiration to the pastor and we trust though gone she shall not be forgotten by those who counted her among their friends. May the virtues of her Godly life be reproduced in our lives so that we too shall have that abundant entrance into the Land of Glory."
