- [S927] Obituary.
Caroline Frank (nee Brubach) the subject of this sketch, was born in Rumbach, Bavaria Province in Germany, May 4th, 1830, and died near Miltonsburg, Monroe county, Ohio at 2:30 O'clock, Tuesday afternoon, February 27, 1912, being at the time of her death 81 years, 9 months and 23 days old.
She came to this country with her parents at the age of 10 years and their place of settlement was in Summit township, Monroe county. Miss Caroline Brubach was confirmed in the old St. Peter's Evangelical church of near Miltonsburg at an early age and endeavored to live according to that faith until claimed by death. On the 23rd day of August, 1851, Caroline Brubach and Oscar Frank were united in marriage and moved south to Lewisville and to this union were born ten children, 3 of whom preceded the mother to the great beyond and also the husband, Oscar Frank preceded her June 4, 1890. Those living to mourn the departure of the soul are seven children, 3 boys and four girls, namely: August Frank of near Lewisville, Charlie F. Frank of Shadyside, Oscar J. Frank of Donora, Pa, Mrs. M. J. Young of Summit township, Mrs George Feiock of Tarantum, Pa., Mrs. E. E. Cronin of near Lewisville, and Miss Henrietta Frank who has made her home with her mother during her many years of suffering, and has been the comfort of the aged parent until the last hour. She also leaves to mourn 47 grandchildren, and 18 great-grandchildren, three brothers, Charlie Brubach, Jacob Brubach and Henry Brubach and a host of friends. "Blessed are they that die in the Lord."
Mrs. Frank was a woman in the true sense of the word, strictly honest, temperate and industrious, a kind and indulgent mother, and a good neighbor and useful citizen. She was one of those women whose honor and integrity of principle we could all copy after with profit.
It was known in the surrounding community that Mrs. Frank was sick for a long time and suffered untold agony but she never complained. Her sickness was a complication of diseases incident to her advanced age. The family and friends with aid of Dr. C. W. Keysor of Miltonsburg did all that loving hands could do but to no avail. At last the grim reaper death came and put his cold and icy hands on one that was so near and dear to us on February 29, 1912.
With short services at the house the remains were followed to Lewisville by a large concourse of relatives and friends and her remains were laid to rest in the cemetery adjoining the chruch. The funeral services were conducted by Rev. J. H. Overbeck of Woodsfield. He took for his text John; 9th chapter, 51st verse, which reads: "Verily, verily, I say unto you, if a man keep my saying he shall never see death." The services were conducted in English and the church was crowded with eager listeners. The sermon was very interesting.
The family has lost a kind and loving mother, the chruch one of its oldest members and the community one of its best citizens. Mrs. Frank leaves to mourn three sons, four daughters, three brothers, 47 grandchildren, 18 great-grandchildren and a host of friends but our loss is her eternal gain. May her soul rest in peace.
She had been in poor health for several months but no one thought her end so near until a few days previous to her departure when she was stricken very ill and continued to grow worse until God released her of her suffering and called her to her home of eternal happiness. Our once happy home is now robed to morning and we realize the sorrow of desolation that rest over us when such a dear one is called away but can only say, God's will be done. The loss of such a dear one shall never be forgotton by us but our only consolations is that mother is in heaven and we live for our God. We shall meet her in her eternal home never more to part.
When we think of her cheerful face
in this world of pain.
Then of heaven's abiding place
In the realm of gain,
Where no sorrow ever come,
That to be our home.
May we meet our dear mother
Never more to part.
In the name of the Frank family they take this method to thank one and all who in any way lent a helping hand during the sickness and death of our beloved mother. A FRIEND"
