THERESA WOERFEL
DROPS DEAD ON WAY TO VISIT WITH FRIENDS
End Comes Suddenly for Mrs. Theresa Woerfel
Overtaken by a heart attack while on her way to visit friends Mrs.
Theresa Woerfel, widow of Franz Woerful (sic), fell at Twenty-third
and Marshall street at 1 o'clock this noon and died before aid could
reach her. The body was removed to the home of Mrs. John Zboralsky
and the coroner was notified. Death was found to be due to natural
causes and no inquest will be called. The body was later removed to
the home of her son Adolph, Marshall street, with whom she had been
living. No funeral arrangements had been completed this afternoon
and announcement will be made tomorrow of the time and place of
burial.
Mrs. Woerfel was born in Germany seventy-three years ago and spent
her girlhood there. She was married in Germany to Franz Woerfel and
after the arrival of their first born, a son Edward, the family
decided to come to America to make their home, locating in Manitowoc
where they have always since resided. Mr. Woerfel was engaged in
business here and died about seven years ago. Surviving Mrs. Woerfel
are two sons, Edward and Adolph and three daughters, Mrs. Edward Wirtz,
Mrs. Peter Bessart and Mrs. George Teporten. Seven grandchildren also
survive.
Had Not Been Ill
This morning Mrs. Woerfel had been about as usual and had not complained
of feeling ill. She had dinner with the family at noon and shortly
afterwards started down town for a visit with friends. John Korlesky
and a friend met her near Twenty-fifth and Marshall street and commented
upon the paleness of the old lady. They noted also that her walk was a
bit unsteady and watched her as she proceeded down the street. They saw
her fall at the corner of Twenty-third street and were among the first
to reach her side but Mrs. Woerfel was beyond human aid. The end had come
peacefully and without a stuggle. The news of the death was a severe shock
to the members of the family.
