RUDOLPH FANSLAU
One of Two Rivers' early councilmen and a retired employee of the Aluminum Goods
company, Rudolph A. Fanslau, died at the Two Rivers Municipal hospital Saturday morning at the age of 87. Although he had been ill a month, he had only been confined to the hospital for 10 days. He lived at 1601 21st street, Two Rivers.
Funeral services will be held at St. John's Lutheran church, Two Rivers, Tuesday afternoon at 2 o'clock, with Rev. W. G. Haase officiating. Burial will be in Pioneers' Rest cemetery.
Mr. Fanslau was born in West Prussia in 1863. After serving three years in the German army he immigrated to the United States in 1887.
Thirteen years later he married Mary Reick and settled in Two Rivers. The couple celebrated its golden wedding anniversary in 1940. Four years later, in May of 1944, Mrs. Fanslau died.
Mr. Fanslau worked at the old Two Rivers pail factory for 26 years before taking employment at the Aluminum Goods company plant. He worked at the latter plant for 28 years before his retirement in 1940.
One of the builders and founders of the St. John's church, Mr. Fanslau was a church trustee for a number of years and served in the male choir for 60 years. Vitally interested in the community, Mr. Fanslau served on the Two Rivers city council for several terms.
Survivors include two daughters, Mrs. Arthur Martin of Two Rivers and Mrs. Arthur Munz of Milwaukee; a sister, Mrs. John Schroeder, of town of Two Rivers; and four grandchildren.

RUDOLPH FANSLAU
Seriously Crippled
Yesterday afternoon, Rudolph Fanslau fell from a ladder, from which he
was painting, to the ground below, a distance of about 12 feet. Besides
being bruised and shocked by the fall his right thigh was broken in a
very bad manner and he will no doubt be laid up for several weeks.
