Unzicker.--Clara Mumaw Unzicker was born in Elkhart, Ind., Feb. 12, 1880; died Nov. 15, 1932; aged 52 y. 9 m. 2 d. She was the daughter of the late Dr. Henry A. and Malinda Blosser Mumaw. She was married Oct. 13, 1923 to Glenn G. Unzicker, and is survived by her husband, her mother, now nearing her 80th birthday, and a sister Phoebe, wife of Aaron C. Kolb, of Kitchener, Ont. Her father died April 1, 1908, and her brother Andrew in 1918. Of Clara it may be truly said she was an exceptional daughter in her devotion to her mother, who, whenever absent on a visit, could always await with assurance the arrival of a letter daily, while, in the home, there was nothing within the ability of Clara to bestow in material things or physical comforts, or in dutiful love and filial affection, that was found lacking. For upwards of 21 years Clara was employed in Elkhart banks, serving as teller in the Savings Department of the St. Joseph Valley Bank since 1918, where she won the confidence and loyal friendship of a large circle of business people. A few years ago she became very ill from influenza which left her with a weak heart, but she still gave of her best in the service of her employers, who extended to her the privilege of many absences in order that she might build up her strength. Ten days before her death she was still at her post of duty, but her condition compelled her to take a rest, and from that time forward she gradually lost ground, until she quietly slipped away on Nov. 15. She and her husband were members of the Evangelical Church. Her end came very peacefully, and she was fully resigned and ready to go. She left a bright testimony and this helps wonderfully in bearing the burden of grief. Short services were held at the home in Elkhart, Ind., on Friday, Nov. 18, by David A. Yoder, after which a public funeral, very largely attended, was held at First Evangelical Church, in charge of the pastor, A. H. Doescher, assisted by D. A. Yoder and J. S. Hartzler. Among the hymns used was a family favorite, composed by her uncle, the late Henry B. Brenneman, entitled "There's a beautiful, beautiful land," which was rendered by special request at her funeral. Interment was made in the Prairie Street Cemetery. A beautiful life has gone out, but sweet memory of her lingers to inspire those who remain.
