Annette Lenhart Musselman's obituary, published in the Starke County Democrat, Knox, Indiana, Wed., February 23, 1928 edition reads:
OBITUARY OF MRS. DAN MUSSELMAN
The entire community was shocked and saddened Friday afternoon when word reached here that Mrs. Dan Musselman had passed away at the St. Joseph Hospital in South Bend at two o’clock hat afternoon. Mrs. Musselman had been in the hospital just one week, having submitted to a mastoid operation the Saturday previous. All during the long week, while Mrs. Musselman suffered intensely, her loved ones hovered near her hoping against hope that her condition would change for the better and that she would come once more to take her place in the happy family circle over which she had presided for so many years. But God who know(s) best, took her Home and gave her a place among his fairest blossoms. For over forty years, she had been a devoted, faithful wife, a wonderful, loving mother, a cheerful, self-sacrificing neighbor, and she will be greatly missed by hundreds of friends all over the county. She was ever ready and willing to do her best and give her all in any cause t!
hat would benefit her neighbors, friends or the community in which she lived. She was an earnest, sincere Christian, with a kind word for everyone and charity in her heart for all. She was a member and ardent worker in the Round Lake Ladies Aid and the Ladies Aid of the Methodist Church in Knox.
Annetta Lenhart Musselman, the daughter of Jacob and Mary Lenhart was born in LaPorte County, Indiana, September 11, 1866 and departed this life at South Bend, Indiana, February 18th, 1927 at the age of 60 years, six months and seven days. On April 26, 1885 she was united in marriage with Daniel Musselman at Kalamazoo, Michigan. To this union three children were born, Mrs. Blanche Radtke of Toto, Mrs. Ada Schrier of Kalamazoo, Michigan and Jacob, who died in infancy. The daughters with the heartbroken husband and four grandchildren are left to mourn her loss. Mr. and Mrs. Musselman moved to Starke County, west of Rye in the Fall of 1885 and have resided in this community continuously since that time.
Funeral services were conducted at the late home on Sunday afternoon at two o’clock in charge of an old friend of the family, Rev Herman Beauchamp, pastor of the United Brethren Church of South Bend. Misses Dorothy and Ruth Wiedergott sang several favorite hymns of Mrs. Musselman’s. Burial was in Round Lake Cemetery.
