Mathilda Heller 1879-1929
It was appointed unto men once to die." This undeniable truth was again brought home to the community on the evening of February 10, 1929, when Mrs. Mathilda Heller, wife of Theodore Heller, was summoned out of the land of the living.
Mrs. Heller first saw the light of day on May 5, 1879, on her father's farm south of Riceville. Here she spent her childhood and grew up to young womanhood.
She was united in holy wedlock to Theodore Heller, of Riceville, on June 6, 1906. Their union was blessed with three children: William, Josephine, and Therese who died in infancy. They, with the husband, three brothers, three sisters, and an aged but active Grandma Heller, remain to mourn her departure. And with them mourn a host of relatives and friends.
The cause of her death was paralytic stroke, induced by high blood pressure from which she had been suffering for a long time. The days of her earthly pilgrimage were 49 years, 9 months and 5 days.
All of her life Mrs. Heller was an upright, consistent Christian, and as a Christian, trusting only in her Savior for salvation, she died. We could laud her many good qualities but they are all summed up in the statement: She lived a Christian life and died a Christian death.
Funeral services were held in the Lutheran Church of which she had always been a member, on February 13, conducted by her pastor, Rev. Leckband, and the body was laid to rest in God's Acre on the congregation's cemetery, there to sleep the last, undisturbed sleep until resurrection morn.
