Obituary
It is with painful sorrow that we have to
chronicle the
death of our worthy citizen,
John Kugler; his death
came so suddenly and wholly
unexpected on Thursday
morning January 11, that it
created a sensation in the
whole community. John although
having his faults like
all the rest of mankind was
always ready to lend a
helping hand in whatever way he
was asked. He was
good to his family, his aged
parents, a faithful member
to his church and his
societies (St. Antonius and St.
Joseph) as also one of the leading spirits of the
Fire
Dept., his death therefore in the prime of life
was a
shock to the whole community.
He leaves a loving
wife, three children, his
aged parents, 5 brothers and
4 sisters to mourn his
early demise.
The funeral on
Saturday last from the Catholic Church, was the
largest ever witnessed in this
village, if not in the
county, fully 800 people escorted
the remains to his
last resting place at the
Catholic burial ground. The
local societies and fire dept
as also the St. Bonifacius
societies and St. Bernard society
of
delegation of the Chaska Fire Dept.
participated.
*Peace to His Ashes*
