                Florentina Winter.

           Schw. Florentina Winter, geb. Fiegenbaum, erblickte das Licht dieser Welt am 20. August 1854 zu Hopewill, Mo. Am 27. August 1875 verehelichte sie sich mit ihrem nun tiefbetrübten Gattin, Hy. F. C. Winter. Diese Ehe war mit neun Kindern gesegnet. Von diesen gingen zwei der Mutter in die bessere Heimat voran. Unter der Amtstätigkeit von Br. W. Schutz fanden Br. und Schw. Winter die köstliche Perel und vereinigten sich mit der Truxton Gemeinde. Treu hat sie beigetragen zum Aufbau derselben durch Gebet und Mitwirken in Gebet- und Bekenntnisstunden, in Sonntagschule und Missionsverein. Gerne und viel hat sie beherbergt. Die Ihrigen had sie täglich angehalten zur Gottesfurcht. So war es natürlich, daß ihr Erstgeborener ins Predigtamt trat. Während der letzten fünf Jahre, aber besonders der letzten zehn Monate, hat Schw. W. viel gelitten. Oefters schein ihr Abscheiden vorhanden, doch erholte sie sich wieder, bis am 24. August die müde Seele zur Ruhe des Volkes Gottes einging. "Ich möchte heim," war ihr Losung. Sie wird überlebt bon ihrem lieben Gatten, 5 Söhnen - von denen Louis H. Gleid der St. Louis Deutschen Konferenz ist - 2 Töchtern, 26 Großkindern, 3 Brüdern und 4 Schwestern. Nebst diesen trauern um sie viele Verwandte und Freunde. Genau 44 Jahre nach dem Einzug der glücklichen Braut hat man die entseelte Hülle nach dem stillen Friedhof getragen. Als Leichentext dienten 2 Kor. 5, 1 und Off. 21, 3. 4.

           A translation of the text is:

                Florentina Winter.

           Sister Florentina Winter, neé Fiegenbaum, beheld the light of this world on the 20th of August 1854 at Hopewell, Missouri. On the 27th of August 1875 she married her now deeply grieving husband, Hy. F. C. Winter. This marriage was blessed with nine children. Two of these preceded their Mother to a better home. Under the office of Brother Wilhelm Schutz, Brother and Sister Winter found the precious pearl and united themselves with the Truxton congregation. She faithfully participated in the building of the community through prayer and participation in devotional hours and confessions, in Sunday School, and the Mission Society. She was a joyous safe harbor for many. Each day she led her family to godliness. So it was natural that her first-born enter the ministry. During the last five years, but especially the last ten months, Sister Winter suffered much. Often the end seemed near, but she would rally, until on the 24th of August her weary soul entered into the rest of the faithful. "I want to go home," was her watchword. She is survived by her loving husband, 5 sons - one of whom, Louis H., is a member of the St. Louis German Conference - 2 daughters, 26 grandchildren, 3 brothers and 4 sisters. Besides these, many relatives and friends grieve her passing. Exactly 44 years after she became a happy bride, her lifeless body was carried to the still cemetery. The funeral text was 2nd Corinthians 5:1 and Revelation 21: 3-4.
