  • Notes 
    • Alfred W. Fischer

      Twin City friends learned with deep regret of the death of a former well known citizen of Waterloo, in the person of Mr. Alfred W. Fischer, who passed away at a hospital in Detroit, following a serious operation, on Tuesday, March 31. Deceased, who was a son of the late Joseph R. Fischer, was a resident of Waterloo for many years. He was employed here with the late George Moore Produce Co. and later with Valentine & Martin, shoe manufacturers. A number of years ago he moved to Detroit with his family where he has since resided. He is survived by a sorrowing wife and two sons, Raymond and Francis; also two brothers and two sisters, and mother, Mrs. Levi Graybill, of Waterloo. The funeral took place on Friday morning from his late residence to the Detroit cemetery for interment. Those present at the funeral from Waterloo were deceased's mother, Mrs. Graybill, Mr. Joseph R. Fischer, a brother, and Mr. Albert E. Hergott, a brother-in-law.
