Carolina, daughter of John and Anna Miller Rheinheimer, was born in Lagrange Co., Ind., Dec. 15, 1868; passed away May 11, 1945, at the Richmond State Hospital, where she had been a patient for four months; aged 76 y. 4 m. 26 d.

On Nov. 26, 1890, she was married to Andrew Suntimer, who passed away Oct. 20, 1894. To this union two children were born--John and Nora, both of whom preceded her in death. On Jan. 15, 1899, she was married to Jacob Hostetler, who with one son (Orie) survives. She also made a home for a nephew, Howard Miller, from the time he was six weeks old. Other survivors are, one stepson (Josiah Hostetler), 4 grandchildren, 2 step-grandchildren, 3 great-grandchildren, one step-great-grandchild, and one brother (Jacob Rheinheimer), all of the surrounding community.

In her youth she united with the Forks Mennonite Church and was faithful and sincere in her Christian faith. Although in her later years she was mentally ill, she loved to sing and frequently did so when she was alone. Funeral services were held at the home and the Shore Mennonite Church by Josiah J. Miller, Percy Miller, and Earley Bontrager. Interment was made in the adjoining cemetery.
