Birth*17 May 1963 Peter Verlan Mastre was born on 17 May 1963 at Bonners Ferry, Boundary, ID.1,2 
Occupation*13 Jul 1999  As of 13 Jul 1999, his occupation was backhoe operator.1 
Death Caus13 Jul 1999 Cause of death was cancer (melanoma).1 
Death*13 Jul 1999 He died on 13 Jul 1999 at Bonners Ferry, Boundary, ID, at age 36.1,2 
Burial* He was buried at Mennonite Cemetery, Bonners Ferry, Boundary, ID.1 
Note* When I asked about Peter, Lillian Mastre wrote the following:

"Pete is buried in the Mennonite Cemetery, Bonners Ferry, Id. He has cancer (melanoma) and had surgery and everything was just fine. After two years when he went back for a routine yearly check-up they said he was fine but since it was an anniversary date they would take an X-ray. This was June 1, 1999. Well the next day he received a phone call telling him he would need a cat scan. The cat scan showed the cancer had spread everywhere -- he died July 13, 1999.

"They told him he'd probably live 3 months. As you can see he had a very young family. It was hardly time enough to adjust.

"He had rheumatoid arthritis and we wonder, if, as these new aches and pains came on he just attributed them to arthritis.

"But we found out God's ways are not our ways and we had to say "Thy Will Be Done." We also found out that life does go on even when we thought it hardly could."1

Services Held For Elizabeth Koehn

Services for Mrs. Elizabeth Koehn, 82, will be held at 10 a.m. today, Thursday, in the Church of God in Christ Mennonite. Burial will be in Cedar cemetery with the Speece Funeral home in charge. Prayer services will be held in the home at 9 a.m.

Mrs Koehn died early Monday at her home four and one-half miles southwest of Fairview. She had been a semi-invalid for a number of years and her condition worsened in February, becoming critical about 10 days ago.

She was born in Russia and came to the United States with her parents in 1874. The family settled in McPherson county, Kan., and this remained her home until she moved to Oklahoma in 1907. The Koehns have acquired other properties since coming to Oklahoma but still reside on their original home site.

Survivors include her husband Cornelius J. Koehn of the home, our sons, Nathaniel Koehn, Freeman Koehn and Cornelius Koehn all of Fairview and Ameil Koehn, Homestead; a daughter, Mrs. Elmer Kahn, Fairview; two brothers, Henry Eck, Isabella and Abraham Eck, Cleo Springs; three sisters, Mrs. Fred Penner, Isabella, Mrs. Fred Nightengale, Fairview, and Mrs. J. L. Nightingale, Cleo Springs; 32 grandchildren and 13 great-grandchildren.10
