Laura Panzlau

1903 - 1928

 

Word Received Here Of The Passing Of Miss Laura Panzlau

Will Be Remembered By Garner Friends - Funeral Service Held Today

Mrs. William Strate received a letter the last of the week from Mrs. A. C. Panzlau, Appleton, Wis., telling of the death of their daughter, Miss Laura.

Word had been previously received by local friends that Miss Panzlau was a sufferer from tuberculosis and her death, although bringing sadness to the hearts of those friends, was not unexpected.

Deceased was a daughter of the Rev. and Mrs. A. C. Panzlau, the former having served as pastor of Grace Methodist church several years ago and just prior to the time that the Rev. A. W. Gauger, now stationed at Klemme, served the local congregation.

In her letter to Mrs. Strate, Mrs. Panzlau states that the daughter passed away Thursday morning at 3 o'clock and that funeral services would not be held until today pending the arrival of their daughter, Selma, and her husband from Shreveport, La.

The mother's closing words were: "It is hard and we will miss her, but she suffered so, and is relieved to be with Jesus and awaits our coming, and it will not be long and I will be with her."

Deceased leaves to mourn her passing, her parents, three sisters and one brother.
