CLARION (Dorchester, Clark Co., WI) 06/15/1928 Mais, Eve (25 MAY
1849 - 13 JUN 1928) Mrs. Stephen Mais
died at the Krakenberger home Tuesday night at 12:30 after an
illness of two weeks and funeral services were held Thursday
afternoon at the home, Rev. P. F. Walter officiating and Friday
morning the remains were taken to Plymouth for burial, Raymond and
Hilda Krakenberger accompanying it. Eve Krakenberger
was born May 25, 1849, in the town of Franklin, Sheboygan Co., and
was 79 years and 19 days old at time of death. May 16, 1869 she was
married to Stephen Mais and for 7 years the young couple lived on a
farm in Sheboygan County. They came to Dorchester and lived a short
time, then to Wausau where they resided 16 years, going back to
Sheboygan Co. where Mr. Mais died in the little country village of
Johnsonville 12 years ago. Mrs. Mais lived
alone until her health began to fail when she came to Abbotsford to
make her home with Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Leiders. A little over a
year ago she came to stay with her sister-in-law, Mrs. Anna
Krakenberger, where she took ill May 29th and June 13th passed on
to the Lord beyond the River. No children were
born to Mr. and Mrs. Mais but their hearts were too big to live
content alone and four children were raised and loved by them, Mrs.
Andrew Leiders of Abbotsford, Mrs. Robert Deibolt, nee Lizzie
Cassel, of Wausau, Mrs. Ralph Bailey, nee Clara Cassel, of Ewan,
Washington, and Charles Cassel of British Colombia. We are sure
these 4 children taken into her loving arms are tribute enough to
her memory, words would fail to tell her splendid qualities and
those who knew and loved her are the better for having lived. Those from out of
town who attended the funeral were her adopted daughters, Mrs.
Andrew Leiders of Abbotsford, Mrs. Robert Deibolt of Wausau and
their husbands, other relatives and friends were Mrs. Hy. Leiders
of Abbotsford, Mr. and Mrs. Harry Goesslman of Wausau, Mr. and Mrs.
Wm. Mais and daughters, Norma and Dorothy, Rib Lake, Mr. and Mrs.
Stephen Mais and son, Paul of Colby, Mrs. Ed Scheibe and daughter
Wanda, and Mr. and Mrs. Dell Winchel and family from the
country. Besides these the
relatives in Dorchester are Mrs. Anna Krakenberger, Miss Hilda
Krakenberger, Mr. and Mrs. Raymond Krakenberger and daughters Echo
and Elaine, and Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Herman and family. May the lord
comfort and sustain those who mourn. © Every submission is protected by the Digital Millennium Copyright Act
