  • Story: CARRIE APP GRIESMYER (1859-1904)

    The following from rootsweb.com/~nyoswego/obits/clevelandnyobituaries.html: Mrs. Henry Griesmyer, Jr. died at her home in Bridge St. Thursday afternoon Sept. 8, 1904, after several months of illness. Carrie App was born in North Bay, N.Y., Friday, September 16th, 1859, the daughter of the late Martin and Caroline App and came to Cleveland with her parents at an early age. And here had always made her home. She was united in marriage to Henry Griesmyer Jr. Thursday January 8, 1885, at St. Mary’s Church by Rev. J.B. Greene. She was the mother of six boys; Francis, Mark, Frederick, Elmer, Aloysius, and William who with their father survive. She is also survived by her father Martin App, two brothers, George of Cleveland, and John of Denver Colo. Funeral services were held from the home and at ten o’clock Saturday morning from St. Mary’s Church, Rev. J.B. Mertens officiating and burial was in the family plot at St. Mary’s Cemetery. Such is the brief history of her life. How faithful, noble and true that life was. We who knew her best are loath to speak We might fondly recall the most tender memories and deeds of self sacrificing devotion; of earnest, patient labors in the cause of religion and benevolence; of the deep love and reverence for all that was good and true and just; but we feel that these can be left unsaid. O loyal heart of Rest! Through thy loved presence has gone from us, and deepest sorrow remains, yer we realize that thy spirit has awakened in a fairer home, where greed enters not, and life is eternal.
