Roth, Eliza Ann, daughter of Peter and Catharine (Roth) Wyse, was born near Wayland, Iowa, Oct. 23, 1880. She grew up and lived in the same community all her life. She accepted Christ as her Saviour in her youth, uniting with the Sugar Creek Mennonite Church of which she was a member at the time of her death. She lived with her parents on the farm until they passed away. For some time she was at home with a widowed sister who children were small. Later she lived with Mollie Goldsmith a crippled lady. They lived together 27 years. When the responsibilities of the work became too heavy for her impaired health she purchased a property and established a home of her own, which was her late home. On Wednesday, Dec. 1, a lady living next door to her called at her home but, receiving no response, she called Eliza's brother. He gained an entrance and found his sister in her bed in the cold embrace of death. Circumstantial evidences seem to indicate that she had passed away some time during Monday night, Nov. 29, 1954; aged 74 y. 1 m. 6 d. She was preceded in death by her parents, 3 sisters, and one brother Surviving are 3 sisters and one brother (Mrs. Clara Moor, Salem, Oreg.; Sarah-Mrs. Dan Alliman; Viola-Mrs. Dan G. Widmer, and Sam, all of the Wayland Community), besides many other relatives and friends. The funeral was held Dec. 3 at the Sugar Creek Church with Vernon Roth and Simon Gingerich in charge.
