A latent illness, in spite of which he had been containing a rather normal activity, was fatal at 11 o’clock last Friday morning to Frank Kloehn at the Robert Kloehn home on route 1, Brillion.
Retiring a bit indisposed on Thursday evening, he passed into a coma after a brief interval of waking shortly before 5 o’clock Friday morning and expired without regaining consciousness six hours later. Funeral services for the retired farmer, who was well known in state as well a county dairying circles, were held on Monday, a services at the Luecker Funeral home at Brillion being followed by a service at the Evangelical church at Forest Junction and burial in the family lot in Forest Home cemetery.
Born on April 10, 1870, Mr. Kloehn had attained the age of 72 years, 1 month and 19 days. His parents, the late John and Justine Jesse Kloehn were among the original settlers of this area coming here from Waukesha in 1866. He was married to Caroline Jansch on November 15, 1894.
In connection with operating the farm on the south village limits of Forest junction now occupied by his son, Karl, he served as school treasurer in District 4 for 18 years, and served as treasurer of town Brillion for five years from 1906 to the end of the annual term which was marked by the death of his wife in February 1911. Venturing reservedly into the Holstein-Friesian purebred industry with the acquisition of an interest in a purebred calf in 1907, he gradually built up a heard which from time to time made reputable showings in county and state exhibits. He retired from active farming about four years ago.
