The followrng obituary was read at the services:

Mrs. Carl Norquist nee Katie Hostettier, was born July 27, 1887. in Morton township. She fell asleep in Jesus after a short illness April 27, 1916, age 28 years and 9 mónths. In her bible she left a record, stating that she gave her heart to God, July 21, 1902, and was baptized August 17 of tbe same year, that she consecrated her life to god and was filled with the Holy Spirit, April 6, 1903.

She was united in holy matrimony with brother Carl Norquist August 9, 1906. This union was blessed with four children the youngest of whom is only two months and twenty days old. Besides her loving husband and ber four precious children our sainted sister leaves to follow her, her own dear mother, a host of relatives and a large circle of friends.

Though just in the prime of life she endeared herself to many and her memory will always be fragrant to those who learned to know her. Dear Katie just said goodnight for a little while; ere long there will be a happy exchange of a glorious good- morning when Jesus comes again. For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel and with the trump of God, and the dead in Christ shall rise first, then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air; and so we ever be with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these words."
