WHITELAND – Last Friday morning Anthony Brunnemer died, after a lingering illness of several months, aged eighty-two years, and was buried at Greenwood in the new cemetery on Saturday. Mr. Brunnemer was a native of Alleghany county, West Virginia, but came to this county over sixty years ago. His life, like that of most early pioneers, was one of toil and hardships, but integrity and uprightness, a love of home and friends, a deep and abiding love for the church of his choice, the Methodist, were his chief characteristics. Nobly assisted in all life’s struggles by the wife of his youth, who died only a few years ago. Uncle Anthony has gone to reap the reward of a life of upright living and Christian integrity.
