ADOLPH M. WILDA (d. 1940)
Adolph M. Wilda, 64, employed in the printing trade in Manitowoc for many years, died at 3:30 o’clock Tuesday afternoon at his home, 616 Huron street, after suffering a heart attack.
Mr. Wilda had just returned from a walk downtown when he was stricken. He died within a short time. Although he had not been in the best of health for several years, death was unexpected.
Born in the town of Kossuth July 12, 1875, he came to Manitowoc with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Anton Wilda, when he was six years old and spent the rest of his life here. He was educated in the public schools and attended the North Side High
school. At the age of 13 he lost his hearing as the result of sickness and attended the school for the deaf located at the present site of the Sears, Roebuck company store. At the time there were only five students at the school and the teacher was Miss Locke.
As a young man Mr. Wilda became an apprentice in the printing trade and for many years was employed as a printer by John MacFarlane, publisher of the Manitowoc News which was later merged with the Herald. Mr. Wilda later worked for Sidney Pratt at
the M. and M. Printing company and the Brandt Printing and Binding Company. He had not worked for the last several years.
Mr. Wilda never married. He made his home with his sister, Mayme Wilda. His mother died in 1922 and his father in 1927. Survivors are two brothers, H. J. Wilda and Dr. O. J. Wilda, both of this city; and three sisters, Mrs. Oscar Belinski, Mrs. Louis
Schliesleder and Miss Mayme Wilda, all of this city. A brother, E. L. Wilda, died in 1935.
The body will be taken to the residence from the Frazier Mortuary Thursday at 1 p.m., and may be viewed there until the hour of the funeral. Services will be held Friday afternoon at two o’clock C. St. Clair, rector of St. James Episcopal church, officiating. Burial will be in Evergreen.
