William Schroeder, 65, of 1413 South Seventh street, first ward
alderman and retired North Western road shop foreman, died this
morning while on a deer hunting trip in northern Wisconsin,
according to messages received in the city this afternoon. Death
was due to a sudden heart attack.
Alderman Schroeder had gone north with a party of friends late
last week. The telegram advising of his death came from Lanona,
Wis.
He was first elected to the city council in 1940, defeating Alderman
Chester Plantico, and has served continuously since that time.
He is survived by his wife, the former Mrs. Emma Schaetzke, three sons,
Reuben of Milwaukee, William Jr., of Parry Point, Md., and Milton of
Sheboygan; and four daughters, Mrs. Edward Berdedal and Mrs. Euguene
Maresch of this city, Mrs. James Costigan of Bronson, Mich., and Mrs.
Hans Bauer of Sheboygan.
Alderman Schroeder was employed for many years as foreman in the North
Western shops at Calumet yards and retired a few years ago.
Funeral plans are incomplete and will be announced Friday.
