JOSEF VOBORIL

DROPS DEAD AS HE FINISHES HIS DAY'S TOIL
Joseph Voboril, Father of Former Ald. J.W. Voboril,
Victim of Heart Attack Last Night
Stricken as he crossed the threshold of his home last night, to have
his evening meal after spending the afternoon out of doors chopping
wood and getting the garden in shape, Joseph Voboril, Sr., aged 76,
father of former Alderman J.W. Voboril of the Sixth ward, now in
California, dropped dead at 6:30 o'clock at 1820 Michigan avenue.
The deceased although suffering one or two attacks of heart trouble
a few weeks ago, had been enjoying fairly good health and his death
was a shock to his household and friends. Mr. Voboril had been about
his work most of the day and had not complained of feeling ill.
Physicians summoned said the sudden heart attack was probably caused
by his exertions in the garden during the afternoon.
Came Here in 1890.
The deceased was born in Bohemia April 23, 1851 and was married there
in 1880 to Francis Halama, who survives him with one son and three
daughters also survive, Mrs. Otto Detgen and Mrs. John Rezba of this
city and Mrs. O. Thompson of Valders. Funeral arrangements will not
be made until word is heard from the son in California. The remains
may be viewed by friends from 7 to 9 this evening at the Wattawa
parlors.
Funeral Thursday.
It was announced this afternoon that the funeral services would take
place on Thursday afternoon at 2 o'clock from the home on Michigan
Avenue.
