Funeral Services for Anton F. Karner, 56, of 308 South Fremont Street, owner and founder or the karner Auto Company at 119 Ellis Street, will be held Monday morning at 9 o'clock at St. Stephen's Catholic Church.
Mr. Karner died at about 1 o'clock Thursday afternoon at St. Michael's Hospital. He was taken there Tuesday afternoon by ambulance, called by Henry Schulist, with whom he had been talking on the telephone at the time he was stricken at his home.
Mr. Karner lived most of his life in the same neighborhood. He was born June 7, 1896, a son of the late Charles and Theresa Karner of 328 South Fremont Street.

For three years afterward, he was employed by Arthur Beijer, who operated a machine shop and garage at the site of the present establishment. He began in business for himself in 1925, continuing his garage work until he was stricken Tuesday. The company for many years was the local agency for Nash automobiles and more recently, has had the dealership for International trucks.
Mr. Karner was a member of the local Elks lodge, Moose lodge, of which he was a trustee at the present time, and St. Stephen's Catholic Church.
He was married at Fond du Lac on Nov. 4, 1917, to the former Martha Petta, who survives.
He is further survived by four daughters, Mrs. Pat Elliott, 628 Dixon Street, Mrs. Fred Teal, Rawlins, WY, Mrs. jack Davis of Duluth, MN, and Miss Carolyn Karner, who is a student at the University of Wyoming, Laramie.

He was preceded in death by two sisters and two brothers.
