Death comes to John Simmering - Ill Only a Few Days, Formerly Adams County Sheriff - Mrs. Simmering in Colorado.
The death of John J Simmering, 219 West Seventh Street, at the Nebraska sanitarium Sunday evening came with the force of shock to Mr. Simmering's friends. Death was due to intestinal trouble, and he had been ill only a few days. He was taken to the sanitarium on Friday.
Mrs. Simmering and daughter, Grace, were in Colorado at the time of Mr. Simmering's death, but were expected to arrive in Hastings Monday. They had been in Colorado for the last month for the benefit of Mrs. Simmering's health.
Fred Simmering, the oldest son, resides at Denver. Prof. Siebolt Simmering of Manhattan, Kansas, spent the summer here and was here when his father died. The other son, John, is at home.
Mr. Simmering was a native of Germany but had lived in this country since he was 16 years old. He came from Germany alone, and lived for one year on a farm. He was married in 1882, and was in business in Kearney for two years. From Kearney he came to Hastings and for some time was in the grocery business.
Afterwards he was deputy sheriff under Sheriff Otto Ojten. Mr. Simmering was twice elected sheriff, serving from 1897, until he was succeeded by John T. Hill in 1901. In the last few years of the administration of Mayor Miles, Mr. Simmering served as cashier in the city light and water department. At one time he was associated with C. E. Holmes in the farm implement business under the firm name of Holmes & Simmering.
For the last few years he was in the real estate and insurnce business, associated with W. A. Reynolds. Of late he had conducted his business alone.
Mrs. Henry Meester is the only surviving sister. Mrs. Dain (Dane) and Mrs. Rothfuss are half sisters of Mr. Simmering. Mrs. Jake Hendricks of Glenvil who died suddenly last fall was a half sister.
The funeral service for Mr. Simmering will be in the charge of K of P at time to be announced later.
