Bio

(Note: His original obituary was in German. His daughter, Lilly, had her boss at the hotel in Waterloo, IA translated it into English. Lilly gave me the translated obituary in May of 1997. It follows: Lilly told me that his real name was Simon and his nickname Siebe was given to him by his mother... it had to do with her maiden name.) To all relatives and friends be this sad news known -- that the lord in his wisdom, was pleased to take my beloved husband and my children's lovin father - Siebe Weiland - quite suddenly from our side. Through the threshing machine only recently acquired -- accidentally he received heavy internal injuries and died 3 days later. His body was laid to rest, accompanied by many, on the 17th this month at the Bethanian Cemetery with the hope, he be received by our Lord and Jesus Christ. Before his passing, he expressed his true belief that the blood of Jesus Christ was spilled for him also. Our sorrow is not without hope. Our father and husband was born on March 12, 1866 at Cirkwehrum, East Frisia (Ostfriesland). and came to America with his parents in 1880. He married Steintje Goldenstein Nov. 10, 1889 For the past 4 years he has lived in this area and previously in Clay County, Iowa. He leaves me - his widow with 8 under age children. In addition, there are his and my parents, also 1 brother and 3 sisters on his side and 3 brothers and 2 sisters on my side, who with us sorrow his early death.
