"Services For Frank Buch Here Saturday.
Was Oldest Resident Of Boro; Led Active Life.
Lititz' oldest resident, Frank B. Buch, died at his home at 14 North Broad Street, at 6:30 a. m. Wednesday. Death was due to the infirmities of his age.
He was in his ninety-fourth year of age and had been a life-long resident of Lititz. He lived a particularly active life and played an important part in the organization of several organizations here.
He was a charter member of St. Paul's Lutheran church and often recalled the days when the men occupying the pulpit of the local church delivered their sermons in Gierman as well as in English. He also was one of the organizers of the Lititz Fire Company.
His influence is seen in Lititz each Fourth of July for he was the one who originated the idea of placing the artistic water wheels and moving candle holders in the park stream. The first wheels used in the Fourth Celebration were made by his hands. Since then the use of these wheels has become famous.
During his earlier life he participated in a number of business ventures which included cigar manufacturing, pretzel manufacturing as well as taxidermy. Species of his work in taxidermy are still highly prized here.
He was a son of Jacob and Maria Brubaker Buch. He is survived by his wife, Susan Miller Buch, and two daughters. Mrs. Erla Stultz and Mrs. John Brubaker. Four grandchildren and five great-grandchildren also survive.
Funeral services will be held Saturday at 2 p. m. from Beck Bros. Funeral Home. Interment will be made in the Machpelah cemetery. Friends may call at Beck's Friday evening from seven until nine."

"Matrimonial -
Mr. Frank B. Buch and Miss Sue S. Miller had many friends, and it was generally understood that the two were pretty good friends themselves; so the event of Wednesday evening was not altogether a surprise. A pleasant company of invited guests assembled at the residence of the young lady's parents, near New Haven, to witness the nuptials of the happy young couple. The Rev. J. Peter, of Manheim, tied the matrimonial knot; let us hope the bonds prove silken.
After the ceremonies refreshments were served, so abundantly and richly that it is a mercy no calamity attended the festivities.
The young couple start out on the voyage of life together attended by the sincere well-wishes of all. Congratulations sound cold and formal, but we add our mite to the abundant store."
