Miami Union
3 May 1900
Mrs. Mary Evaline Schauer was born near Troy April 22, 1823 and fell asleep in Christ April 26, 1900 aged 37 years and 4 days. She was the only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Kerns. She became a member of the Methodist Protestant Church near her home in January 1897. About three years ago she united with Bethel Christian Church. On October 19, 1882 she was united with Samuel Schauer. To them were born two children, a boy and a girl. Since the death of her son, Glenn, last November, her health has rapidly failed. After seven weeks spent with relatives in Texas, in the hope that the milder climate of the South might be a benefit, she returned to her home April 13th, and in less than two weeks she had gone to that home where there is no more sickness nor sorrow, where tears are wiped from all eyes and where the weary are at rest. She was an obedient daughter, a loving wife, and a devoted mother. The funeral services were held in the Lutheran Church of Troy Sunday and were conducted by Rev. Weaver, assisted by Revs. Royal and Denison. A large concourse of friends were in attendance upon the services and accompanied the sorrowing relatives to Riverside Cemetery.
