Prayer card from Anna Maria Sophia Peelen's funeral after her death on March 24, 1894 in Freedom.

Interesting it was in Dutch.  My best translation of this is:

Anna Maria Sophia Peelen
former wife of
Johannes Antonius Hooijman
born at Het Loo, the Netherlands, May 14, 1818, died in Freedom, North America on March 24, 1894, after being blessed with the holy Sacraments.

I place my trust in Mary, and in her I have hope. O Mary, you should be happy and in you I trust, for the door is open to those who have placed their trust in Mary.  -- H. Benandus

She was known to God and man, and she keeps us blessed.
