JOSEPH B SEURER
On Sunday morning April 13th, Joseph B. Seurer died in this city after an illness of two weeks with influenza-pneumonia. The young man was in the employ of Schweiter Bros. and was in the best of health until March 28th when, while delivering to the patrons of the market, he was thrown from the cart and suffered a fracture of the shoulder bone with confined him to the house. The following Sunday, March 31st, he was taken with an attack of influenza which rapidly developed into pneumonia and from the first his condition was very serious. He had every care and attention, a nurse being with him at all times and a strong effort being made by his physicians to save his life. Transfusion of blood was resorted to, but although he made a brave fight he was unable to throw off the disease. During his illness both his wife and sister-in-law were down with influenza, but in a lighter form.
Joseph B. Seurer was born in the town of Chilton Nov. 24, 1896, and was the eldest son of the late Joseph and Magdalena Seurer. After the death of his father the family moved to this city, purchasing a home on West School street where he remained with his mother until Jan. 7th last when he was married to Frances Vogel of the town of Chilton. The young couple began housekeeping in the Dorn cottage on State Street with bright anticipation for future happiness. They were scarcely settled in their new home when the destroyer, Death, entered and claimed the husband.
The deceased was a very industrious and thrifty young man and wherever employed had given the best of satisfaction. He has been with the Schweitzer Bros. for the past four years and in his work for the firm made numerous friends among the patrons of the market, being accommodating kind and willing to go out of his way to please the trade. His death is deplored by everyone who knew him and all deeply sympathize with his young wife, mother, brothers and sisters.
The funeral was held from St. Mary's church, Requiem Mass being celebrated by Rev. Fr. L. N. Thelen.
He is survived by his wife, mother, two brothers, Henry and Anton, and three sisters. Mrs. Jos. Grittner, Theresa and Frances.
