(1871 - 1947)
Frank Smugler, Alderman For 22 Years, Dead
Frank J. Smugler, 71, of 1114 South 20th street, lifelong resident of the city and seventh ward alderman for 22 years, died Sunday morning at the Holy Family hospital. He had been in failing health for several months.
Funeral services will be held at 9:30 a.m. Wednesday at the Shimek and Schwartz funeral home and at 10 o'clock at the St. Marys Catholic church, the Rev. John Landowski officiating. Burial will be in the church cemetery.
Mr. Smugler was born in this (photo) city in 1871. Fifty-two years ago he married Miss Agnes Smugler. She died four years ago. He was employed as an engineer for the McMullen and Pitz Construction company for 20 years serving on dredges and other craft of this company. As a member of the city council for 11 two-year terms, Mr. Smugler was long active in city affairs. For years he headed the harbor and dock committee of the council. In his final year in the council Mr. Smugler served as president of that body.
In recent years, until illness forced his retirement, Mr. Smugler was custodian of Pulaski park in the seventh ward. He also served as a city inspector on public works, principally bridges and sewers, after he left the council. He was a member of the Holy Name society and the Catholic Order of Foresters. After his retirement from the city council Mr. Smugler retained his interest in city affairs, particularly the harbor. Mayor Martin Georgenson named him a member of the Harbor commission, of which he was a member at the time of his death.
Survivors are two daughters, Mrs. Charles Reitmeyer of this city and Sister M. Pachomia of the Felician Sisters of Chicago; two sons, Raymond of Fond du Lac and Mark of this city; two sisters, Mrs. Nellie Rathsack of this city and Mrs. Joseph Rathsack of Ladysmith, Wis.; brother Joseph of this city; three grandchildren and one great-grandchild.
