Faith Ax Passed Away Tuesday
Funeral For Faith Ax Held This Afternoon
Faith Ax, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Ax, was born on the 27th day of November, in the year of our Lord 1906. She was baptized by Rev. John Gartermann, pastor of the Elltown Reformed Church. During her childhood days she attended the public school of her home district, and the Church schools in the Reformed Church. After completing the public school course, she attended the Klemme High School, graduating with the class of 1925. In school she proved herself a faithful and diligent student and as such she was respected by both instructors and fellow students.
She was not permitted to make use of her talents, however, as she had hoped, because of delicate health. She remained with her parents until about three years ago, when she suffered a nervous breakdown and it became necessary to take her to a hospital. A few weeks ago the parents were notified that her condition was very serious, and Mr. Ax accompanied by Dr. Geo. Zinn brought her back home January 2. The parents were glad to have their daughter under their own care even though it was to be only for a few days. God called her to the Eternal Home Tuesday morning, January 7th at 1:30 o'clock, at the age of 23 years, 1 mo. and 10 days. During the last day her mind became perfectly clear, enabling her to carry on a conservation with her parents and brother.
Surviving her and mourning her death are her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Charles Ax, and one brother, Richard, and many other relatives and friends.
During the noon hour the Klemme High School students were given the privilege of viewing the remains.
Funeral services were held at the Klemme Reformed Church Thursday afternoon at 1:30 o'clock, with Rev Grosshuesch in charge. Burial was made at the Klemme Cemetery. The following Liberty boys, neighbors, acted as pall bearers: Glenn Lang, Kenneth Gast, Glenn Terhufen, Carl Carlson, Fred Pringnitz, and Burnette Haefner. The floral tribute was both large and beautiful and expressed the sympathy of the entire community which goes out to the bereaved parents and brother at this time.
