Mrs. Louisa Grimm Shaffer, wife of William B. Shaffer, a well known and most highly esteemed woman of Zion, die3d at their home a half mile north of that place quite suddenly Thursday afternoon, June 7, 1917, of acute heart disease. Mrs. Shaffer was apparently in her usual health until stricken Thursday afternoon while attending her household work, and died within a very short time. She was the daughter of Daniel and Magdalene Grimm and was a kindly, sympathetic woman, a life-long member of the Lutheran church and was held in high esteem by her wide circle of friends. Her husband, William B. Shaffer, is left with these sons and daughters: Albert Shaffer, Mrs. Hiram Lutz [Candace Olive], Mrs. Gustave Weiland [Mary D.] and Mrs. John Corman [Lilly Belle], all of Zion; Newton Shaffer of Lock Haven; Mrs. William Rothrock [Kate] of Williamsport; Mrs. Luther Musser [Fannie], of State College, and Miss Cora Shaffer of Philadelphia. One sister, Mrs. Lewis Pellman, of Harleton, also survives.
Funeral services were held in her late home near Zion at ten o'clock Monday morning, conducted by Rev. Shultz and Rev John A. Bright of Topeka Kansas, the latter a cousin of Mrs. Shaffer. Burial was made in the Zion cemetery.
