HERTA LORFELD

From Der Nord Westen, 30 Jan. 1908:
Hertha, the daughter of David Lorfeld in Cleveland,
died Wednesday last week and was buried Sunday.

NOTES FROM MEEME
Herta Lorfeld, the dearly beloved child of David and Matilda Lorfeld, died on Jan. 23, after an illness of one week. The angel of death claimed the treasure for which he came, plucking a fair rose bud from the terrestrial garden of a happy home to be nurtured in the celestial garden of all eternity. Herta was a favorite among her schoolmates and friends, a very bright and happy child. She was born on Dec. 11, 1896.

Besides her grieved parents she leaves two sisters Matilda, Elsa, and three brothers, Walter, Arthur and Harry, to mourn her loss.

The funeral took place on Sunday afternoon. The cortege that proceeded to the Evengelische cemetery was a very large one. The school children of District No. 2 joined the cortege in marching to the cemetery. they sang "Nearer My God To Thee" while the body was laid to rest. Our sincere sympathy is extended to the afflicted ones.
"Silently one by one in infinite meadows of heaven,
Blossoms the lovely stars, the forget-me-nots of the Angels."
