William G. Slattery of 469 State Street, a retired Springfield Armory employee, and for many years a salesman at the Kavanagh Furniture Co., died Wednesday in Mercy Hospital. He was stricken with a heart attack while vacationing in Bennington, N.H., a few weeks ago and was taken to the Peterborough (N.H.) hospital, where he remained for more than two weeks before being transferred to his home. Several days ago he took a turn for the worse and was removed to Mercy Hospital.
A native of Easthampton, he was the son of the late James and Hannah (Henchey) Slattery, and had lived in this city for the past 35 years. He was a charter member of Easthampton Council, Knights of Columbus, and a long-time member of the Holy Name Society of St Michael's Cathedral.
Besides his wife, Mrs. Bertha (Diemand) Slattery, he leaves a son, William G Slattery, Jr., of Chicopee Falls; two daughters, Mrs. Ethel S. Sears, wife of Sgt. William G Sears, of the Springfield Police Department, and Miss Anna D. Slattery, at home; a sister, Mrs. Julia Lawrence of Brookline; three grandchildren and several nieces and nephews.
The funeral will be held at the State St funeral home of the T.P. Sampson Co. Friday at 8:15 with a requiem high mass in St Michael's Cathedral at 9. Burial will be in St Michael's Cemetery.

Bertha & William were married in Blessed Sacrament Church, Northampton on 20 March 1901
When her brother, Ernest, was seeking help for the family farm, Bertha and Bill referred their nephew, John, for the job. He met my mom, Ernest's daughter, Marie and married her. Without Uncle Bill & Aunt Bertha, there wouldn't be a me.
Uncle Bill and Aunt Bertha were visiting her 1st cousin, Arnold Diemond at the family farm in Bennington when Uncle Bill just dropped. Since the family farm was on a mountain side and did not have a phone, Bertha ran down the mountain to the nearest house at the base to call for assistance.
