Claus, Fredrick Claus
Monroe County Beacon, Woodsfield, Ohio, dated, September 16, 1937
Sweetly rest from all thy labor,
Far from every grief and pain;
We will often think about you,
While we here, on earth remain.
That life is not entirely lived on this earth was proved again whenthe Angel of Death took from our midst, a dear father and friend, whomwe all cherished and loved. To die with the faith that makes deathseem a sweet relief means that life is only to begin. When deathclaims the earthy house of the soul therefore let us not weep butrather thank God that he gave this dear father and friend that faithand Maker of life. Fredrick Claus, born Feb. 2, 1855, died Aug. 24,1937, being at the time of his death 82 yrs., 6 mo., and 22 days old.He was baptized in the Evangelical Church of Miltonsburg, and on April10, 1870, he was confirmed in the same church by Rev. Weisgarber. OnJanuary 20, 1883, he was united in marriage with Miss CarolineHaffner, of Harriettsville, Ohio. He lived in Monroe County his entirelife. The following have preceded him in death; his wife and twosons, William H. and Clemence G.; surviving are 3 daughters, Mrs. AnnaChristman, Mrs. Minnie Egger and Mrs. Clara Christman, all ofLewisville, Route; and four sons, Edwin F. and Benjamin H. Claus ofIowa; Leroy A. and Gilbert C. Claus, of Lewisville Route. There are 24grandchildren surviving, and four have preceded him in death; also 5great grandchildren survive, and 2 great grandchildren have precededhim in death; four brothers and a sister have also gone before. Maywe realize that our loss is eternal gain. May God help us to live afaithful life so we may enter that world where death nor sorrow evercome. He bore his suffering with great patience to the end. At lasthis spirit left his frail body to return to God who gave it. He laiddown the Cross he carried so long and picked up the crown he had won.Those who attended the funeral from a distance were: Mr. and Mrs. JohnHaffner, son of John and daughter Mildred, of Harriettsville; Mrs.Charles Ullman, of Marietta; Jacob Christman, of Toledo; GeorgeZimmerman, Mr. and Mrs. Howard Zimmerman, of Lower Salem; Mr. and Mrs.Forrest Conner of Marr; Mrs. Chester Chester Schwartz and Miss CelestaChristman, of Bucyrus; Mr. and Mrs. Wilburt Zimmerman, Mrs. AugustPabst, of Lebanon; Mr. and Mrs. Raymond Christman and daughter WandaLee, of Bethesda.
Beneath our eyes he fadeth slowly.
Growing, day by day, more frail,
Bearing sweetly all his sufferings
Without murmur, moan of wail.
In the household many sorrows,
That his race so soon is run,
But we should not mourn for father,
As the Savior bids him come.
We loved him, yes, we loved him,
But his Savior loved him more.
So the angels sweetly called him
To that bright and happy shore.
