  • Notes 
    • Death of Mrs. Wm. Rittinger of Kitchener.

      The death took place at Kitchener on Sunday, February 29th, of Mrs. William Rittinger, in her 58th year. She had been ill for about five weeks but hopes were entertained for her recovery. A turn for the worse, however, set in and she passed away early Sunday morning.

      The late Mrs. Rittinger was born in Kitchener and was a daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. Conrad Doerr of that city. Thirty-eight years ago she was married to Mr. Wm. Rittinger, who with four daughters survives.

      The funeral was held on Wednesday afternoon from her late residence on Frederick street to Mount Hope cemetery for interment.

      New Hamburg Independent, March 5, 1920
