FARMER DROPS DEAD AS HE GOES FOR COWS
Anton Rezek Found By His Son on Farm Home North of Melnik Late Tuesday
Stricken with a heart attack as he went to drive the cows home from pasture shortly after four o'clock Tuesday afternoon, Anton Resek,67, town of Gibson farmer, residing a short distance north of Melnik, died in a small wooded clump on the farm. His body was discovered by his son, Raymond, who alarmed at the failure of his father to return to the barn with the cows, went in search of his father and found his body.
Mr. Rezek, although having some spells of sickness, had been enjoying fairly good health and had been able to assist in the duties on the farm, with his sons, Raymond, Anton and Leo.
Funeral services will be held from the home Friday afternoon at two o'clock to the Presbyterian church at Melnik with the Rev. Junek officiating. He was a member of the Z.C.B.J. lodge of Melnik and members will attend the funeral.
Came Here In Youth
The deceased was born in Bohemia in 1864 and when a small boy came to this country with his parents, the family locating on a farm in the town of Gibson. He spent his entire life there. He was married to Julia Andrel, who survives him with five sons, Anton, Raymond, and Leo on the home farm. Louis of Larrabee and Hugo of Zander; and four daughters, Mrs. Robert Pavlichek, Bryand, Wis., Mrs. Joseph Hynek, Melnik, and Rose and Emma at home.
