Grace Havens Preyer was born in Leavenworth, Kansas, October 11, 1865. She received her early education in the Leavenworth schools and later attended Lindenwood college at St. Charles, Mo. On May 2, 1887, she was married to Carl Preyer. On August 19, 1888 twin babies, Helen and Havens were born to them. These little ones lived only eleven months. Sept. 12, 1890, Frank was born, the following year Mr. Preyer came to the university of Kansas. Mr. and Mrs. Preyer spent some time in Berlin in 1895. Mary was born Sept. 12, 1891, and Grace Sept. 14, 1903. Mrs. Preyer leaves a father and mother, two brothers and two sisters, Mr. Fred Havens of Kansas City, Mrs. Frank Olcott of New York City, Mr. Ernest Havens of Leavenworth, and Miss Frances Havens.
In the death of Grace Havens Preyer a sweet and happy woman has gone to a well earned rest. Mrs. Preyer's love for her family and friends was of the heroic, devoted sort.For years her physical health has been uncertain, but her fine indomitable spirit has made her life one of rare usefulness and influence.
Mrs. Preyer was by nature simple, direct and sincere. Her thoughts and her deeds were absolutely free from the tarnish of self seeking, or self assurance. Her unspoken appeal was straight to the best, and truest in every man and woman who knew her. A visit with Mrs. Preyer always left one impressed with the beauty of unselfishness in a woman. Her great joy in life was her happy children and her much loved husband.
The devotion of Mrs. Preyer's father, mother, sisters and brothers to all that was her's will make the lives of her husband and children far less lonely than they could otherwise be.
The weary, worn body of our friend is at rest, but that rare, sweet spirit has become now a part of so many lives that it can never perish.
