Rites for Veteran Organist to Be At Holy Trinity

Funeral services for Michael L. Nemmers, 74, composer of Catholic church music and organist and choirmaster in Catholic churches for the last 44 years, will be at 10 am. Wednesday in Holy Trinity Church, Park and Greenbush streets.

The Rev. William Haberstock, pastor of Holy Trinity church, will be celebrant at the solemn high mass. Members of the Holy Trinity choir, of which Mr. Nemmers was director from 1911 until five weeks ago, when he was taken ill, will be pall bearers. Interment will be in Holy Cross Cemetery.
