Here's the translation of Christina Loose's obit -
Christina Loose was born in the town of Kraft, Russia, on 5 December 1874 and died in the hospital in Denver, Colo., on 19 March 1940. By God's grace she achieved an age of 65 years, 3 months, and 41 days. As a child she received holy baptism, and at the age of 15 was confirmed in the Lutheran church in her hometown. She entered into holy matrimony with Mr. Gottfried Loose on 15 November 1892. This marriage was blessed with five children. In the year 1906 the deceased came to this country with her family. First they lived in the state of Wisconsin and then in the state of Michigan. In the year 1910[?] they came to the area of Ft. Morgan, Colo., to farm there. Since 1928 she has lived in Denver. Sister Loose was a member of our parish and she loved the hour of prayer. We as a parish call out to her: Now rest is peace and see what you believed in Jesus your savior! Those who mourn her passing are: her heartsick spouse, her daughter, Mrs. Marie Scharton, her four sons, George, Jacob, Edward, and Alexander, nineteen grandchildren and many friends. God, who can comfort all, be with the loved ones to give them comfort.
