On November 30, 1918 the sad news was received from Camp Kearney of the death on that day of Fred T. Bottler, Marysville young man and native of Yuba County, son of Frederick and Katherine Peters Bottler. The young man was educated in the public schools of Marysville, entering the employ of the Marysville Water Company shortly after he concluded his studies. He was with the water company when called to the colors on May 22, 1918. He spent four months at the Presidio at Monterey, from which point he was transferred to Camp Kearney.

As a schoolboy, young Bottler showed traits that endeared him to his companions, being agreeable, kind-hearted, considerate and unselfish. The same traits appeared in his home life with his sisters and parents. They remained with him to the end. He was fond of youthful sports, and was made a member of the Marysville baseball team because of his proficiency. In his last illness he was especially commended by the army doctors for his fortitude in battling against the ravages of influenza. Through his death his employers lost a valuable ma; his associates, a firm friend; and the City of Marysville, a good citizen.
