• Notes

  Harold Gascho The death of Harold Jacob Gascho, eldest son of Mr. and Mrs. Aaron Gascho, which occurred at the home of his parents here last Friday, following an attack of pneumonia, caused deep regret among a large circle of friends with whom the deceased was very popular. The young boy took sick the previous Sunday and despite the best medical aid his condition grow worse and death claimed him. Harold was in his 15th year, being born in New Hamburg on Nov. 2, 1927. He attended the local Public School and since November last was employed at the Waterloo Lingerie factory here. Besides his sorrowing parents, he is survived by three brothers, Norman, Lloyd and Roy and one sister, Ruth. The funeral took place on Monday afternoon from his parents' home, Catharine Street, to Steinman's A.-M. Church for service, and interment in the adjoining cemetery. A large concourse of sorrowing relatives and friends were in attendance. Rev. M. O. Jantzi was in charge of the services. New Hamburg Independent, March 20, 1942
