Obituary from The Wrangell Sentinel - Friday, July 14, 1933: B. Angerman Passes Away At Wrangell. B. Angerman passed away Tuesday evening, July 11, after an illness lasting nearly a month. Funeral services were held Thursday afternoon and interment was made at Wrangell cemetery. Mr. Angerman located in Wrangell three years ago, coming here from Latouche. He engaged in the meat business in 1931, continuing in this occupation until his health compelled him to close his market a short time ago. Mr. Angerman was born in 1875 in Salzburg, Austria, near the German border. He left his native country in 1909, settling first in Massachusetts. In 1910 he came to Alaska following construction on the Copper River & Northwestern, eventually entering the employ of the Kennecott Copper Corporation, upon the completion of the railroad. He continued in their service until the mine at Latouche was closed down in 1931. He took out his first citizenship papers in Massachusetts and was made a citizen of the Untied States in Seward in 1916. Mr. Angerman was a man of sterling honesty. He always valued his friendships highly, and could never do too much for a friend. He was devoted to his son's family with whom he made his home. Nature might well say of our friend, "There was a man."
