[Gertrude Elizabeth Haubrich] Who is she really?

Gertrude Elizabeth Haubrich is a real person born in 1875. She died 5 years later on September 11, 1880. Her birth date is June 1, 1875. She lived in Central City, Colorado and died there as well. She is buried in a very old graveyard and the picture on the right is her real gravestone. The picture on the left is a close up of the writing so you don't think I am lying.Image
What really moved me about her besides how young she died was what was written on her grave. You can't read it on the picture, but I personally visited her grave and wrote down what was there. These words are engraved at the base of the headstone, just under the bottom of the scroll.
"Worry not for me my parents dear
I am not dead but sleeping here
I was not yours but God's alone
Who loved me best and took me home
Remember friends as you pass by
As you are now so was I
As I am not so you must be
Prepare for death and follow me."

Her parents are like said on the grave: Samuel Haubrich and Amelia Christina Paul, she also had two siblings: Joseph and Hattie Haubrich.
