Philipsburg District Farmer Dies in Tractor Mishap

Austin Doering, aged 55, of RR 2, Baden, died Saturday night as the result of a freak tractor accident along the Wellesley road.
Mr. Doering had taken the tractor to Wellesley to have some wood planed, and was on his way home when the accident happened. His body was found beside the wheel of the tractor early Sunday on the farm of Mrs. Alma Forler, RR 1, Baden.

Corner Dr. C. C. Belyea of Kitchener reported Mr. Doering died of suffocation. According to Provincial Police Constable Harry Pelz, the wheel of the tractor rested against his neck and prevented his breathing, but did not crush his throat. Mr. Doering was found early Sunday by Lloyd Forler, after his mother saw the tractor on her property. It is believed the victim was westbound on Wilmot township road 3 when the tractor left the road and went through a deep drainage ditch, through a fence onto the Forler property and continued into the field before it stalled.

Mr. Doering was born in Philipsburg April 28, 1907, a son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Adam Doering. He farmed in the area all his life, and also worked for the Kitchener Silo Co. Ltd. He was a member of Zion Lutheran Church, Philipsburg.

GERALD MAURICE ROTHAERMEL

Born November 20, 1924, Gerald Rothaermel, our beloved and respected father, grandfather, father-in-law and friend, passed away peacefully on Saturday, July 28, 2018.

Predeceased by his loving wife, Lorraine, parents, Pearl and Earl Rothaermel and brother Owen.

As a young man growing up in Bridgeport, ON., Gerry was a quick, fit and accomplished hockey player, playing for the Waterloo Siskins prior to serving in the Canadian Air Force in WWII. After the war, Gerry enjoyed a successful career, highlighted by meaningful, continuing friendships with colleagues and associates in the general insurance and marine business. Following many years of fishing and boating on Lake Huron, he developed a profound interest in professional powerboat racing, a sport that he passionately enjoyed with family. Near or far, Gerry was drawn to water and had many special moments on or around it \endash whether sailing in offshore seas, steadying a boat for the start of an F1 Grand Prix or relaxing with family and friends at his cottage on the Bruce Peninsula.

During his 93 years, Gerry led an active and balanced life, delighted by and appreciative of, warm friendships and adored pets. Traveling with wisdom and a caring heart, he put his best foot forward, fully engaged with those he was with. A consummate gentleman, Gerry's steadfast reliability and thoughtful advice was always sincere.

Family and friends are invited to celebrate Gerry's life at a Remembrance Service to be held at Lawrence Park Community Church, 2180 Bayview Avenue, Toronto M4N 3K7 on Thursday, August 2nd at 11:00 a.m. Reception immediately following.
