The Death record is for
Maria Christina Möllerin Schuchardt
March 1787 – 28 December 1853
• GD79-8G1

The information on the index entry is listed below. The error is her father is listed as Schuchardt. Schuchardt is her married name , Justus Friedrich Schuchardt is correctly identified as her spouse. I can fix her father's surname to the Möller spelling indicated in this record ( Möllerin comes from her children's baptism records ). However, I'm afraid her father's first name may be hidden in the German Script. Any help determining the accuracy of this record is appreciated.

Hello @DonShugard.
Maria Christina's father's first name is not recorded in this record.
Translation:
In the left margin: [no.] 87. Maria Christina Schuchardt, née Möller.
In the year of Christ 1853, on the 28th of December, in the morning at 7:00 am, Maria Christina Schuchardt, née Möller, died, the surviving widow of the late Justus Friedrich Schuchardt, former local citizen of this place and master hatmaker, age 66 years, 9 months, 19 days (born 9 March 1787), and thereafter on the 30th of the same month at 2:00 pm, according to Christian custom, was buried in the earth, in the presence of:
(1) the local citizen of this place and "Stadt______meister" Heinrich Klös;
(2) the local citizen of this place and joiner David Schönhals;
who together with us, the city pastor, have also signed the present record.
[signatures of the two witnesses and the pastor]

There is no mentioning of Maria Schuchardt's father in this record. The indexing is incorrect, unfortunately.
Here comes the translation of the whole entry:
In the year of Christ 1853, on the 28th of December, in the morning at seven o'clock, Maria Christina Schuchardt, née Möller, widow of the late Justus Friedrich Schuchardt, former local citizen and master hatter, died, aged sixty-six years, nine months, nineteen days old (was born March 9, 1787) and was buried thereupon the 30th of the same month in the afternoon at two o'clock, according to Christian custom, in the presence of
1. the local citizen and town streetkeeper (Stadtwegemeister) Heinrich Klüs;
2. the local citizen and carpenter David Schönhals,
who, together with me, the town pastor, have signed this protocol.

@DonShugard We are so glad you have joined our German community - It is a great place to get help and to help others! We have a lot of talented, experienced participants here.
Most of the time, it is best to use "ask a question" - do this by selecting the arrow to the right of "new discussion". Asking a question allows you to accept the answer or let us know you would like more help. (I was able to change this post to a question for you.)
I will mark my response as a rejected answer because it only gives you some tips, not an answer to your question - then this will continue showing as an unanswered question and it should get more attention that way.
Be sure to review the links at the top of our community page for some great resources. We look forward to hearing from you. We are so glad you are part of this great community!
Thanks for being patient as we sometimes must wait for a response to come from a volunteer with the needed skill set. It is always good if you include the identification number of the person in question in Family Search Family Tree so we can see the bigger picture.
We look forward to your comments and questions.
Enjoy today! Cindy Jarvis
