P.H. Good, Groceries, Crockery, Glassware, Wines and Liquors, King Street - There are many old established business houses in Berlin that have grown up with the growth of the town, and met with deserved success. Among merchants most prominently connected in this respect is Mr. P.H. Good, whose grocery establishment is located in the Canadian Block on King Street. This gentleman first started the business in 1865, and for the past 21 years has steadily and solidly advanced. The premises occupied, which are large and commodious, suitably and tastefully fitted up for the requirements of the business, are 20x75 feet in dimensions. Here is carried a large and well selected stock of staple and fancy groceries, choice brands of teas and coffees, table delicacies, condiments, hermetically sealed goods, etc.; also a choice and handsome assortment of crockery and glassware, and imported and domestic wines and liquors. Mr. Good gives steady employment to three careful and competent assistants, who are always ready to show goods whether purchases are made or not, although the quality and variety of the goods carried, and the rock bottom prices at which they are sold, are sure to effect a sale. Mr. Good is a native of Canada and is an honorable and enterprising business man, and one who merits well of the community.

Death of Mr. George Good - There passed away on Friday evening at his late home, corner Spring and Queen Streets, one of St. Jacobs' most highly esteemed and pioneer residents, Mr. George Good the well-known village blacksmith. Mr. Good came to this place about 40 years ago and through his upright dealing and genial manner made many warm friends. The funeral, which was held on Monday afternoon, from his late residence to the Evangelical Cemetery, was one of the largest held in this section for a number of years. Rev. W.O. Hehn assisted by Rev. Mr. Schmidt, of Berlin conducted the services. The church was filled, many not being able to gain admittance. The bereaved family, have the heart-felt sympathy of a wide circle of friends. Of the family the following are left to mourn the loss of a king and affectionate father and husband: - a sorrowing widow, a daughter, Miss Elsie, at home; Sylvester and Oscar, St. Jacobs; John Teeswater; and Israel, Regina; also two brothers, Joseph of Didsbury, and Jacob of Berlin. Mr. Good was 62 years of age and had been ill for some time, although only confined to this bed for a few weeks previous to his death. This summer he spent a couple of months in the Northwest, but the change only had the desired effect for a short time. When he felt his old trouble coming on again he hurried home to only survive a couple of months.

Notes:

Blacksmith Until 75

Mr. Good Sr. was a blacksmith in St. Jacobs from the time he was 18 until he retired at 75. He died in 1957 at the age of 83. The business was a family affair started by Mrs. Woodall's great-grandfather Benjamin Good, who was succeeded by her grandfather, George Good. Mr. Sylvester Good then took over and his successor was his son, Mrs. Woodall's brother, Norman. Norman in turn sold the business to John B. Martin, the present proprietor.

35¢ For New Shoe

The exact year the business was started is not on record, but it is thought to have been more than 100 years ago - before Canada was formed. Mrs. Woodall can recall working around the shop as a child during school holidays, and working the hand-operated bellows. The prices charged in those days, as shown in some of the old ledgers which Mrs. Woodall has retained, were 10 cents for re-setting a shoe and 25 to 35 cents for a new shoe. "As children, we couldn't always understand why father couldn't give us everything we wanted, when we wanted it," commented Mrs. Woodall on these prices. "When we grew older, we understood better." Mr. Sylvester Good was only away from St. Jacobs once in his 83 years and that was when he went on a harvest excursion. Mrs. Woodall has preserved a number of papers concerning this historic family, some of which she has placed in the custody of the museum at Doon.

Notes:

Sad Death - On Sunday morning the late Israel Good passed away at the home of his father-in-law, Mr. Jacob b. Keller, Yonge street. The deceased was a comparatively young man being only 32 years of age. Some years ago he went west and being a quiet, sober and industrious young man he soon worked himself up, being a plumber by trade. Before long he was taken in as partner in a large plumbing firm, in Regina. A few years ago, he returned home for a couple months' vacation, when he was united in marriage to Miss (Bertha) Keller, only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Keller of this town. This year he again took advantage of the Christmas Eastern Excursions to visit his mother and friends, little thinking that he would not return. His wife and daughter had come down a month previous. A couple of months ago he was taken suddenly ill and an operation was performed from which he never recovered, although everything that doctors and kind friends could do was done to try and save his life. Besides a sorrowing widow and young daughter, he is survived by his mother Mrs. George Good, one sister, Elsie at home, three brothers, Sylvester and Oscar, of St. Jacobs, and John, of Teeswater, who mourn the loss of a kind and affectionate husband, father, son and brother. They have the heartfelt sympathy of a large circle of friends in their sad bereavement. The funeral will take place Thursday afternoon from the home of J. B. Keller.

"Mother was tired and weary,
Weary with toil and with pain;
Put by her glasses and rocker,
She will not need them again.
Into heaven's mansions she's entered,
Never to sigh or to weep;
After short years with life's struggles
Mother has fallen asleep."

Notes:

JUTZI, Ruth Viola Mom passed away peacefully surrounded by the love of her family on November 30th, three days after we celebrated her 99th birthday with her. She was predeceased by her husband Rufus in 2011 and is survived by her children, Collin (Marnie), Terry (Judith), Tom (Nancy), Marj (Doug) Richard, Dave (Joanne), 16 grandchildren and 21 great-grandchildren. Mom was born in Kitchener on November 27, 1919 the second child of Jacob and Wilhelmina (Krueger) Good. She was predeceased by her parents, her brothers Ira (Ruth) and Earl (Jean), her parents-in-law Simeon and Leah (Gascho) Jutzi, her brothers-in-law Wallace (Mary), Curtis and Nyle (Pat). She is survived by her sister-in-law Lauretta. Mom looked after us well. Her manner quietly assured us that everything will work out and many of the worrying issues of the day are really not that significant. We liked that she enjoyed some misbehavior. We also liked that she could sometimes see humour when others could not. She encouraged us in our schooling. We remember her singing lullabies to us at night to the tune of the hymn "Love Lifted Me". She was a master Crokinole player. It was fun when uncle Earl would visit to take her on. In retrospect, we really do not know how she possibly managed all the cooking, cleaning, laundry, gardening, canning, baking, peeling potatoes etc. and then pulled off the spectacular Sunday noon dinners at which guests were invariably present. Mom was generally reserved and did not frequently articulate her views. She relied on her intuition and private thoughts to make her decisions. We never heard her say an unkind word about anyone. She never complained. Her actions and reactions demonstrated humility and thankfulness. She had a passion for helping new Canadians many of whom ended up calling her mother or grandmother. In the latter years she often sang when we visited, usually hymns but also the boisterous rally song of her alma mater, KC I. Mom participated widely in church and community events. Her family of origin was not Mennonite although her father had Mennonite background. When our father quite suddenly was called to pastor the Floradale Mennonite Church in 1951, the role expected of a Mennonite pastor's wife at that time was added to Mom's responsibilities. This was not easy for her. Her life became busier and less private. She had four young children with a fifth to follow in a few years. There were many cultural changes. How should I style my hair? How conservatively should I dress? She was affirmed in all this by the supporting words and actions of many kind and thoughtful parishioners which we still remember and will cherish forever. Thank you, Mom, for modelling courage. Thank you for loving us, our spouses, our children and grandchildren without judgement. Thank you to everyone who provided love and friendship to Mom over the years including during her later years in Assisted Living at Fairview Mennonite Home and Long-Term Care at Breithaupt House, Columbia Forest. Funeral arrangements have been made through the Erb & Good Family Funeral Home . Visitation will take place at the funeral home at 171 King Street South Waterloo on Wednesday December 5, 2018 from 3 - 6 p.m. A public funeral service will be held at the Preston Mennonite Church, 791 Concession Road, Cambridge Ontario officiated by Rev. Gary Knarr on Thursday, December 6, 2018 at 11 a.m. Refreshments will follow. A private family interment will take place at the Hagey Cemetery, Cambridge at a later date.

Sad Drowning of Two Kitchener and Waterloo Girls

A most distressing and sad drowning accident occurred last Friday afternoon in connection with the annual picnic of the staff of the Mutual Life Assurance Company of Waterloo, in which Miss Gladys Hohmeier, aged 19, only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Hohmeier, of Kitchener, and Mrs. Edna L. Kaufman, aged 20, only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Benjamin Kaufman, of Waterloo, were the victims.

The sad fatally occurred in the Grand River at the farm of Eugene Pequegnat, 1½ miles east of Breslau, where the picnic was held.

A number of girls had gone in bathing and Miss Kaufman and Miss Hohmeier started to wade across the river and got beyond their depth and sank, being unable to swim. The other girls were also unable to swim and could render no assistance. The bodies were recovered in twenty to thirty minutes [unreadable] Kitchener pulmotor which was summoned worked over them for an hour but without avail.

Both young ladies were highly thought of and their sad death cast a gloom over the Twin City. They were both the only daughter in the family and are survived by their parents and four brothers each.

The funeral of Miss Kaufman took place on Monday afternoon and that of Miss Hohmeier on Tuesday

'A fine, upstanding gentleman in all things'
Former Waterloo North MPP and founder of funeral home, Edward Good dies at 83.

Edward R. Good, the founder of a Waterloo funeral home and a former MPP, died Thursday. He was 83. Good was born and grew up in Kitchener. He attained the rank of second Lieutenant with the Royal Canadian Artillery during the second World War, began the Edward R. Good Funeral Home in 1946 and served as the Liberal MPP for Waterloo North from 1967 to 1977. "I thought the world of Ed Good," said former Ontario Liberal leader Robert Nixon. "He was a very effective spokesman on all provincial issues, and was very well respected by the people in all parties," said Nixon. "He was a pretty solid citizen, and I found him to be an outstanding man to work with And he was always a lot of fun - a very enjoyable man to be with." Good won three elections with relative ease, and was the Liberal critic on municipal affairs for most of his years in the opposition benches. Long-time friend, Jim Breithaupt, a former Kitchener Centre MPP, said Good made a strong, lasting impression on just about everyone he met. "Ed made himself an expert on municipal law. He started fresh and learned on the job, and he did an exceptionally fine job," said Breithaupt. "I was very impressed with his strength of conviction, and the impression he made on people. He was a fine, upstanding gentleman in all things, and a very effective MPP for Waterloo North." Good purchased and renovated the building at 171 King St. S in Waterloo and turned it into a funeral home - a business now run by his son, Paul Good and long-time business partner Jim Erb. "Whenever anybody asks about Ed, the thing that comes to mind first and foremost was his integrity," said Erb. "He was a gentleman through and through, in every aspect of his life, and in the way he greeted people, responded to people and respected people." Until about two years ago, Good retained an active interest in the business, and kept an office at the funeral home, he said. Through the years, Good was also president of the Waterloo Lions Club, president of the Central Ontario Funeral Directors Association, and a member of Branch 530 of the Royal Canadian Legion in Waterloo. Good was predeceased by his wife, Rhea, in 1997. He's survived by three sons, Paul, of Waterloo, David of Victoria, B.C. and John of Toronto, as well as five grandchildren.

Flash from the Past: Service station was at the hub of tiny Centreville

Much has changed in the Centreville area of Kitchener in recent decades.

When our mystery photo of July 3 was snapped - probably sometime about 1940 - the Shell service station that Walter Good operated at 2934 King St. E. was situated not in Kitchener but in Waterloo Township. The multi-lane Highway 8 we know today didn't exist. Nor did Fairway Road. And the Grand River Railway still carried passengers back and forth between Kitchener and Preston - passing just a hundred metres or so behind Good's garage.

That's Walter standing on the right in the photo. And the man on the left is his brother-in-law, Howard Heimpel.....

Well, today the site is a small retail plaza at the northwest corner of King Street East and Morgan Avenue. On the northeast corner is the Radisson Hotel Kitchener Waterloo. And across King Street is the Guest Inn Motel at King Street East and Kingsbury Drive....
