Franz Moseler 1847-1923

From the Two Rivers Reporter, Two Rivers, Manitowoc County, Wisconsin, Friday Oct 19, 1923
DIED AS HE WISHED TO

That he might pass away without long illness so as not to become a burden to himself or others was a wish oft expressed to his friends by Franz Moseler.

And now a kindly Providence has granted the wish for, last Friday, the time came for him to answer the final summons. Aged 76 years, he passed away at the home of his son, Nicholas, on Twenty-second street, having retired to his room for a little rest, not feeling well after dinner. He was called for supper and did not respond. Entering the chamber the family found that he had gone upon his last rest.

He had been in apparent good health and strolled about town in these beautiful October days with his usual cheerful greetings to his many friends up to the day of his death.

He had been a resident here for forty years, an upright citizen and good neighbor.

Born in Germany, he was married there to Emma Gertrude Klein who preceded him in death nine years.

He was a soldier in the Franco-Prussian war and fought in some of the great battles. Here he was engaged as a carpenter, and woodworker in the factories, a frugal and industrious worker until the past few years he served as sesxton of the Catholic cemetery.

He leaves four sons; Nicholas, Joseph and Peter of this city, and Frank of California. He also leaves eleven grand children and one great grandchild.

His remains were laid to rest at nine o'clock Monday morning at Pioneer Rest cemetery, Rev. C.V. Hugo, officiating. (Note: Franz Moseler was born on January 17, 1847 and died October 12, 1923)
