OBITUARY-ENGEBRETSON

Clara Sophia Engebretson was born at Rock Creek January 22, 1884. When about ten years of age she moved with her parents to present home, where she passed away April 14th, 1914 from a complication of diseases.

Miss Engrebretson had been in poor health for a number of years, but had been a great sufferer since last September. She was a very devoted daughter and sister, always ready to do what she could for the comforts of those about her.

Although it was hard to leave the ones she loved so well, she was ready for her Savior's call and being conscious to the last gave many comforting words to those she left. She is mourned by a mother, father, two brothers and one sister. One brother and one sister having preceded her to the other shore.

The funeral service was held Friday April 17, and her body laid to rest in the Rock Creek Lutheran cemetery.
