Rock Springs Rocket no. 51 November 07, 1913
"Litch" Has Gone Beyond
Died, in this city, Wednesday morning at seven o'clock, Nov. 5th, Herman Lichenstein, aged 60 years. Deceased was born in Germany, but came tot his country at the age of fourteen years, remaining in New York for a couple of years, later going to Chicago. He came to this city sixteen years ago last July and has been engaged in the manufacture of cigars. He and Mrs. Lichenstein were married here shortly afterward, by Judge J.M. Mott at the home of Barney Gesas.
Mr. Lichenstein has been a sufferer from rheumatism for a number of years and for sometime past had dropsy, which caused his death. He was a prominent lodge member, belonging to the Eagles, Elks, Odd Fellows and K. of P., and had gone through all the chairs in the Eagles and the Encampment, which is the higher branch of the I.O.O.F. He is the first officer in the Rock Springs Eagles to pass away.
The body will be taken to the Elk home tomorrow at 2 o'clock where it will lie in state until Sunday afternoon at 2 o'clock, when funeral services will be held by the Eagles. Fred Johnson, of the B.P.O.E., will give the Eulogy and Elk Quartette will sing one selection.
A widow is left to mourn the loss of a loving husband and companion and a host of friends will miss a friendship which has been a pleasure to them since his residence here. He often said, that when he died he wanted to be buried here where all his friends were.
