Dies While Seated in a Rocking Chair
William Immel Succumbed Sunday After Long Illness; Other Homes Saddened by Death.
William Immel died suddenly at his home at Barton at 11:15 a.m. on Sunday, June 2. Mr. Immel had been in failing health for a number of years as the result of Paralytic strokes, but was able to be up and around in his home. In 1927 and 1931 he suffered various attacks and on Sunday morning a third attack claimed his life while he was sitting in a rocking chair.

Mr. Immel who was a son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Peter Immel, was born on the homestead of his parents at the west limits of West Bend on Aug. 28, 1861. He spent the early years of his life on his parents' farm, and on Sept. 24, 1887, was married to Miss Louisa May at Dawson, North Dakota. The couple resided at Dawson until 1890, when they moved to West Bend. In 1900 they came to their present home at Barton, which village has been their home the last 35 years.

Mr. Immel was the father of seven children. Of whom the following survive: Mae (Mrs. Oscar Hose) and Rose (Mrs. J. Forvilly) of Milwaukee; Kate (Mrs. Geo. Doty) of West Bend; Ernestine (Mrs. Sarto Geib) and Frank and Peter of Barton. Other survivors include the widow, five grandchildren, a brother, Henry Immel of Milwaukee, and a sister, Mrs. Mary Mayer of Placentia, Calif. A daughter, Anna preceded her father in death 18 Years ago.
Mr. Immel was a kind old gentleman and was well thought of in the community where he resided. His long life was embellished by devotion, the comforts of his home and the interests of his friends and for more than a half century he enjoyed the good will and respect of those with whom he came in contact. He was one of the first members of the Barton fire department and did his just share to promote its interests. To those bereaved by his death we extend our sympathy.
Funeral Services were held Wednesday morning at 9 o'clock under the auspices of St. Mary's church at Barton, the Rev. F. Ruhmann officiating. Interment was made in the parish cemetery.
