The last year and a half of Mother Weidner's life was spent with her daughter, Mrs. Ansbach, where she passed peacefully away on February 16 th, 1911, at the age of 91 years, 6 months and 12 days.
As a tired child goes to rest at the close of day, she sweetly fell asleep without pain or suffering.
Mother Weidner was a life long Christian and member of the Methodist Episcopal church.
Although deprived of attendance on the public services during her declining years, she never failed in her devotion to the church and its interests. She loved the Scriptures and her confidence in her Savior was complete and childlike.
Her beautiful life and her sweet and cheerful disposition under all circumstances, was an inspiration to all about her.
The funeral services were held Monday afternoon from the home of M. R. Ansbach, conducted by Dr. Stevenson, the pastor of the Methodist Episcopal church. CLARINDA HERALD, Clarinda, Iowa, Feb 23, 1911

Mrs. Samuel Weidner died early Friday morning at the home of her daughter, Mrs. M. R. Ansbach, on North 16th street, at the advanced age of 91 years and 6 months. She had been very feeble for some time but her passing away was painless, very peaceful, being conscious up to the last, and expressing her desire to go home and meet her loved ones. It was seemingly a falling to sleep in the arms of death. Mrs. Weidner came to this county with her husband from Indiana in 1863, and it had since been her home. Her circle of acquaintance was large, especially among the early settlers and all admired her for her womanly qualities. For many years she had been a consistent member of the M. E. church. A good old lady has gone to her last resting place. The funeral took place from her late home Monday at 2:30 p. m. conducted by Rev. Wm Stevenson, pastor of the M. E. church.
