TO HIS REWARD.

The Brown City Banner gives the following obituary of the late Wendell Clemens, who was well known throughout Berlin and Waterloo County:

We are called upon this week to chronicle the death and burial of Wendell Clemens. who departed this life at 11 o'clock a. m. Saturday Aug 7h, at his home, one mile north and a half mile west of Deanville, Lapeer county, after a lingering illness covering about ten years with rheumatism, but was not seriously ill till about six weeks ago when heart trouble and dropsy set in, since which time he grew worse till as above stated the summons came, but not unexpected, and the good old man was ready to go to meet the reward of a Christian life, leaving the evidence to his dear companion and children of a glorious immortality beyond the grave. The funeral, which was very largely attended by sorrowing relatives, neighbors and friends, was held from the Mennonite church at this place Tuesday, Rev John McNally, of Blair, Ont, an old neighbor and bosom friend of the deceased officiating, assisted by Rev SS Rosenburger. Undertaker Jas Black, of Deanville, had charge of the corpse. The interment took place in the Brown City cemetery.

Wendell Clemens was born Dec 28, 1823, in the township of Dumfries, Waterloo County, Ont, and at death was 73 years, 7 months and 21 days old. He was united in marriage to Catherine Unger, Nov 25th, 1845, who still survives him. There was born to them twelve children, tens sons and two daughters, eleven of whom are living as follows: Mrs Oliver Burgey, of New Dundee, Ont.; Benjamin and Jes, of Berlin, Ont.; Nathaniel of Newstadt, Ont.; Moses of Burnside, Mich.; Wendell, of Berlin, Henry, of Waterloo, Ont.; James, of Burnside, Mich.; John, of Waterloo, Ont.; Allen, the only one still at home, and Mrs Louis Bluck, of Hespeler, Ont.

Deceased was a kind husband and a loving father. During his sickness he suffered a great deal but was very patient and towards the end longed to go home to be free from pain. The end was very peaceful and he passed away as one going into a peaceful sleep. He with his companion was converted to God 46 years ago, when they joined the Mennonite church and have ever since been faithful members.

The family wish to kindly thank the friends and neighbors for kindness and attention during their sad bereavement.

The Demise of Mr. B. U. Clemens

WIDELY KNOWN CITIZEN CALLED TO GREAT BEYOND.

The community today mourns the loss of a widely known citizen, namely Mr. Benjamin U. Clemens, who passed away at four o'clock yesterday afternoon after a protracted illness.

Mr. Clemens had been confined to his home since New Years, the first affliction being pneumonia. When on the road to complete recovery la grippe set in and during the past three weeks he had been confined to his home. About a week ago the illness assumed a serious aspect from which there was to be no rally.

The deceased was a son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Wendell Clemens of North Dumfries, where the subject of this sketch was born. His mother, Catherine Unger, predeceased him only a few months ago at the advanced age of eighty-eight years. The late Mr. Clemens was in his sixty-ninth year. His early life was spent on the farm. Subsequently he with his brother, Mr. John U. Clemens, conducted a general store at New Dundee. But for the past forty years he has practically been a resident of this city continuously. For the past thirteen years he was on the staff of the Merchants Rubber Co., where his services were highly valued. During his long residence here he made many warm friends. His geniality, sociality and personality in general made his association and companionship a delight. Mr. Clemens also was a member of Trinity Methodist Church.

In 1873 he was married to Marian Bricker who with one daughter, Mrs. Fred Scandrett, and one grandson. Frederick John Scandrett, of Montreal, survive him. The following also survive:

Eight brothers and two sisters namely, Mrs. Oliver Berger of New Dundee: Joseph Clemens, city; Nathaniel, New Dundee: Moses, Marlett Mich.; Wendell of Breslau; Henry U of city: James, Brown City, Mich. John of Galt: Allen of Brown City Mich.; Mrs. Lewis Block of Pontiac
Mich. The funeral will be held at 2.30 o'clock on Saturday afternoon at the residence, 85 North Foundry Street thence to Mt. Hope Cemetery.

Highrise development on track on Duke Street West in downtown Kitchener

By Liz MonteiroRecord Reporter

KITCHENER - Another highrise apartment building in the downtown core appears to be on track.

The 21-storey, L-shaped residential highrise at 45 Duke St. W. will feature 137 units. On the site near Ontario Street North is a former residential building turned pub \emdash Jack Burger \emdash which is set to be demolished.

At a committee meeting on Tuesday, minor changes to the site plan were approved. In the report, city staff said the highrise development meets the city's official plan when it comes to intensification in the core area.

The building will have a total of 63 parking spaces and 45 bicycle parking spaces. It is located on the Ion corridor.

A heritage impact assessment was submitted and no concerns were issued by city heritage staff, the report said.

Committee chair Denny Cybalski said neighbouring property owners were made aware of the development and the committee was not notified of any potential concerns.

City senior planner Juliane von Westerholt said the next step is getting full site approval and a building permit.

J. U. CLEMENS.

To the farmers of the surrounding district and even in the town itself, the name of Mr. J. U. Clemens was well known long before he opened out in New Hamburg five years ago. For Mr. Clemens had been in business as a general merchant in New Dundee for many years, subsequently going to Berlin. He is a gentleman with an honorable and successful business record to his credit and enjoys a good share of public confidence in and about New Hamburg. He does a general dry goods trade but makes it a Point to have something special before the public most of the time. To this end he handles much bankrupt stock and, as these are always first class goods, his patrons get genuine and very substantial bargains handed out very frequently. Especially in shoes and ready-made clothing, of which he carries a large stock, is this true. His stock of gents furnishings is complete and up to the minute at all times. But it is in ladies' high-class shirt waists that this store specializes. Mr. Clemens is proud of his offerings in this line and truly his selection is a splendid one. Ladies of the vicinity cannot make a mistake in looking through this store for a natty, stylish shirt waist.

Notes:

Measuring Wool for City Knitters Is a Big Chore

Hundreds and hundreds of pounds of wool have passed through Miss Millicent Clemens' hands at the Kitchener Red Cross headquarters in past months and, as long as the war continues, there will be no slackening in her work.

It is Miss Clemens' job to keep Kitchener Red Cross knitters supplied with wool to knit various articles. This she does by weighing out exactly enough yarn for each pair of -stockings, sweaters, scarf or mitts. It is then wrapped, marked and shelved, ready to be handed out to knitters.

While this may sound like a monotonous task, it really isn't, according to the wool dispenser. From her quarters at the side of the workroom, Miss Clemens sees the fruits of her work grow. In a few days her parcels come back in finished articles. ready to be forwarded to headquarters.

Miss Clemens is an important cog in the knitting department as her work conserves considerable yarn that might ordinarily go to waste. Instead of handing out two skeins of yarn to make a pair of stockings when only one skein and a portion of the second is actually needed, Miss Clemens measures out the correct amount and thus guards against waste.

When Miss Clemens first started weighing out the wool the work went slowly, as it was necessary to weigh out each individual parcel. But soon she found out just how much each skein of the various types of wool weighed, and it was only necessary to weigh or measure the half or quarter skein allotments.

Every weekday morning finds Miss Clemens at her work. She has some 1,000 knitters to keep busy and that means that she must keep on her toes.

Honor Memory of Deceased Worker With Contribution

A $5 cash donation from two Kitchener people was received at Red Cross headquarters today "in loving memory of a steadfast and loyal friend and a devoted Red Cross worker."

The donation was a tribute to the untiring efforts of the late Miss Millicent Clemens, who was buried today. Miss Clemens was an ardent Red Cross worker and died almost a year to the day after volunteering her services.

It was Miss Clemens job to parcel, weigh and label all the wool that passed out of the Red Cross headquarters. She handled wool for thousands of sweaters and socks for members of the armed forces.

A card accompanying the donation pointed out that the doners were sure Miss Clemens would rather that they gave the money to the Red Cross than buy flowers.

Other donations reported at headquarters today amounted to $18.50. Three are anonymous donations for $10, $3 and 50 cents. The other is a $5 contribution from the Misses Elsie and Miranda Master.

Beatrice Hedegaard 1913-2004

It is with great sadness, yet gentle relief, that we announce the passing of our mother, Beatrice Verdella Hedegaard, at Fort Macleod on Monday, Nov. 22, 2004, at the age of 91 years.Bea struggled to maintain her dignity and cheerfulness through her long illness. Her strong faith helped her during this difficult time.Beatrice was born on March 26, 1913, in New Dundee, Ont., to Isaac and Eliza Ann Spreeman, the youngest of nine children. Her family moved to Drumheller when she was five years old.Throughout her teenage years, she was active in the Salvation Army. She attended Mountain View Bible College in Didsbury, and in anticipation of serving as a missionary in Nigeria, she completed her nurses training in Toronto.Due to a serious illness, she altered her plans. Bea returned to Alberta and became a Ministering Sister in the Missionary Church. She continued working with the church and nursing. She felt very privileged to work at the former Buelah Home in Edmonton, for unmarried mothers.Beatrice met and married Christian Hedegaard, a minister, in 1943. Together they served in churches at Bingley, Mountain View and James River. They spent a year in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, followed by a year in Didsbury, where Bea nursed at the hospital.In 1956 they moved to minister in Denmark, Chris' native land. They returned to Canada in 1961 and served as pastors in Athabasca and Mountain View. After they retired from the ministry, they moved to Red Deer where Bea continued to nurse for the next 10 years.Bea led a colourful, busy life. She was involved with the WCTU, PTA and Women's Missionary Society. She was a loving wife and mother, a doting grandma and a good friend. She was an excellent nurse and a vibrant public speaker. There are many happy memories.Bea was predeceased by Chris in 1988. She leaves to remember her, their son John and his wife Sarah of Orlando, Florida; their daughter Linda Ellis and her husband Jack of Fort Macleod; granddaughter Terrah Lindsay and husband Don of Grande Prairie; granddaughter Trudi Mason and her husband Adam of Lethbridge; and grandson Tyler Ellis and Christine of Fort Macleod. She also leaves five great grandchildren: Kianna, Kiera, David, Eli and Isaiah.A memorial service to celebrate Bea's life will be held at the CrossRoads Missionary Church, Red Deer on Friday, Nov. 26, 2004.If friends desire, memorial donations may be made in Bea's memory to the Alberta Heart and Stroke Foundation or to the CNIB.Eden's Funeral Home, Fort Macleod (403-553-3772) and Wilson's Funeral Chapel (403-782-3666) assisting the family.
