Notes |
- William Betzner A sad death took place here on Sunday, the 9th inst., when Mr. William F. A. Betzner, only surviving son of Mr. and Mrs. Isaac Betzner, passed away after a few days illness with pneumonia, making the third death in the family within the past two years. The deceased had been employed with Mr. H. D. Schmidt, of New Dundee, as machinist, for several months, and was home over the holidays. On Monday of last week he went to Berlin and secured a position in the Rubber Tire Factory and intended to start there on Wednesday, but took sick on Tuesday with that dangerous illness and grew worse despite all medical aid, until death claimed him. The deceased was aged 32 years, 3 months and 5 days. He was a very pleasant young man and for many years a valued member of the New Hamburg Musical Society. Besides his sorrowing parents he leaves three sisters, Misses Loraine, Sophia and Elena at home, to mourn his sudden and untimely demise. The funeral took place on Wednesday afternoon to Trinity Lutheran Church for service, with internment in Riverside Cemetery. Rev. Behrens of Berlin officiated. The pall bearers were six cousins of the deceased. The bereaved parents and sisters have the sympathy of their many friends in their sad loss.
