Obituary of John
Christian BUNSOLD
On December 10, 1927, Mr. John Chrisitan BUNSOLD fell
asleep in Jesus after a long illness. He
was born in Marysville, Ohio, June 7,
1887. In the fall of 1902 he entered our
Teachers’ Seminary at Addison, Illinois, where he was graduated in 1907. The first seven years after his graduation he
was a Lutheran schoolteacher in Jonesville, Indiana, and after that a short
time in Port Hope, Michigan. Sickness
forced him to resign, and he went to Denver in quest of health. Although losing this fight, he had fought the
good fight of faith, finishing his course and receiving the crown of
righteousness. 2 Timothy 4:7,8. He is survived by his wife, Ida, nee
MIDDENDORF, two children, his mother, three brothers, and two sisters.
At the funeral
service on December 14 the undersigned preached in German on Genesis 32:10, the
text which the departed had requested him to use, and in English on Luke
2:29,30. Carl A. GIESELER.
Obituary of
Professor Frederick STRIETER
Again the angel of death has
visited one of our synodical institutions and taken from us a faithful servant
of God and an instructor of students who are preparing for service in the
Christian day-school – Professor Frederick STRIETER, who died December 15,
1927, in Davenport, Iowa.
Frederick Strieter was born
December 26, 1854, in Cleveland, Ohio. He was the oldest son of the Rev. John
STRIETER and his wife Elizabeth. The
atmosphere of the home of his childhood was not only Christian, but one
permeated with the love for missions.
This same love dwelt in the heart of the deceased, and he prayed and
labored for this cause and dedicated two children to it. During his early childhood his parents moved
to the mission-fields of Northern Wisconsin.
In those rugged surroundings he spent his boyhood. Being a gifted boy, it was but natural that
his parents should plan to dedicate him to the service of the Lord. At the age of fifteen he matriculated at
Concordia College, Fort Wayne, Indiana, and was graduated in 1876. He accepted a call as teacher from St. Paul’s
Lutheran Church at Dubuque, Iowa. In
1880 he accepted a call to Akron, Ohio, where he served four years. From 1884 to 1897 he served in the Lutheran
school at Frankenmuth, Michigan, and from 1897 to 1903 in Cleveland, Ohio. In 1903 an urgent call was sent him from
Concordia Teachers’ College at Seward, Nebraska. He accepted at and served this institution
for twenty-four years. The talents which
the Lord had given him he put to good use.
He was blessed with a keen mind, and this he developed by intensive
reading and study. What the Lord had
given to him he imparted to the many students under his care. It was his privilege to see a school of
thirty students increase to 330. He
enjoyed comparing the primitive conditions of twenty-four years ago with the
finely equipped school of to-day, and he humbly thanked God that he had been
granted a share in its growth. He was a
good instructor and a fatherly friend of the students. To the members of the faculty he was a loyal
colleague and a fearless advisor. The whole
community respected and honored him.
In 1877, while teaching at
Dubuque, he married Lucy ZUMHOF, who died eight years later. In 1886 he married Marie SCHICK. The Lord blessed Professor Strieter with
eleven children, seven sons and four daughters.
All are living and mourn his passing.
Besides his bereaved widow, Marie Schick Strieter, he leaves twenty-four
grandchildren, three brothers, and four sisters. After a long life free from all illness, it
pleased God to afflict the deceased with a painful infirmity, which he bore
with great patience and fortitude. On
December 15, 1927, he died as one of whom we can say: “Blessed are the dead who
die in the Lord.” His burial took place
on December 17 in the Lutheran cemetery of Rock Island, Illinois. Professor Aug. SCHUELKE preached a German
sermon on Matthew 6:13. Pastor HARMS of
Davenport addressed the mourners in English, and Pastor WILHELM of Rock Island
officiated at the grave.
We thank our heavenly Father
for having given us loyal servants of the Word and for the good which he
accomplished through our deceased brother.
May He comfort the bereaved family and friends. Henry A. KOENIG.
