Dödsruna: "Christina Johnson Widlund was born Jan. 12, 1853, in Jonkoping Smaland, Sweden. She passed away June 23, 1933; aged 80 y. 5 m. 10 d., after an illness of two weeks. She grew up and received her early training in the land of her birth. At an early age she gave her heart to God and to the last kept a strong faith in her Lord and Master. Nothing pleased her more than to be up and doing the will of her Master and many were the sacrifices made for her faith. At the age of 18 she came to Keokuk, Ia., where she lived for about 6 years. In 1877 she came to Manson, Ia., and was there united in marriage to Frank Widlund who preceded her in death 5 years ago. To this union 8 children were born: Albin, Ernest, Harry, Selma, Hilma, Esther, Edith and Vinnie. They made their home on a farm near Manson and did their bit as early settlers to build up the community. She was a kind and considerate mother and ever ready to help the sick and needy around her. She was a strong and robust woman, content and uncomplaining to the last. For the last 18 months she made her home with her daughter, Mrs. Joe J. Egli near Pomeroy, Ia., where she died. She is survived by Albin, Ernest, and Harry of Manson, Mrs. Edith Juday and Mrs. Joe Egli of Pomeroy, 4 sisters (Mrs. Louise Ostman of Courtland, Calif.; Mrs. Clara Ostegren of San Francisco; Mrs. Hulda West of Hughson, Calif.; Mrs. Ida Anderson of Minneapolis - 2 sisters and 3 brothers preceded her in death), 20 grandchildren, 1 great-grandchild, besides relatives and friends. Funeral services were held at Manson Mennonite Church Monday, June 26, Nick Stoltzfus and A.R. Egli in charge. Text, Job. 14:14. Buried in Rose Hill Cemetery."
