Death

The Gospel Messenger Feb. 3, 1891 page 78,
CRIPE - At Osccola, Mo., Nov. 20, 1890, of pneumonia, sister Catharine CRIPE, wife of Christian CRIPE (deceased), aged 64 years, 4 months and 1 day. She united with the church at about the twenty years of aged, and lived a faithful Christian life, until God called her to a home in heaven. She lived five years after her loving companion was called home. She leaves five dear children to mourn their loss, but their loss is her eternal gain. She suffered very much, while sick. Previous to her departure she called for the elders of the church and was anointed, and so fulfilled the last command of the Master. After that she seemed to be a perfect ease and passed over the river of the death without a struggle. Funeral services by the brethren J. L. Jordan and J. A. Yost.
