EMMA RUDEBECK

Death seems particularly ruthless and merciless when it take away from
four young children, a kind and loving mother, leaving the father along
to bear the responsibilities of parenthood. Thus it has taken away from
the home of Ervin Rudebeck, 1711 Jackson Street, his wife, Emma, who
passed away Sunday, mother of Lauretta, aged fifteen, Hildred, thirteen,
Viola, eleven and Leslie, eight years. Born here thirty-five years ago,
she was up to the time of her illness two months ago, in apparently good
health. Deceased is also survived by her father, William Mertens, three
brothers, Joseph, John and William and three sisters, Mrs. Mary Dett,
Mrs. George Flegle and Mrs. Ed Wacek. Deceased was affiliated with the
Royal Neighbors and with the Altar Society of St. Luke's Church. The
funeral, which was held Wednesday morning from St. Luke's church was
largely attended by members of these organizations.
