HEART ATTACK FATAL ON WAY TO HOSPITAL

Mrs. Katherine Daron, Strucken on Downtown Street, Dies While on Way to Hospital Stricken with a heart attack early last evening as she was walking along S. Eighth street with two of her daughters, Mrs. Katherine Daron, 65, 924 S. Seventeeth street, died in a taxicab in which she was being rushed to the Holy Family hospital for treatment. She was pronounced dead by a physician who met the cab at the hospital entrance. The sudden death has proved a decided shock to members of her immediate family and to friends who had no knowledge that she was not in good health. She had been downtown during the afternoon and was apparently well when she started crossing the bridge south on her way home and was stricken near Quay street. As she was being supported by the two daughters who were with her, Officer Walter Herman appeared on the scene and he asked if he could be of assistance. He called a taxicab and ordered that the stricken woman be taken to the hospital but before arrival there Mrs. Daron had expired.


Resided Here Many Years Born in Germany on November, 25, 1866, Mrs. Daron, nee Katheine Sitkewitz, was a resident of this city and county for many years. She came to this country with her parents when she was a young girl and for some time made her home at Newton. She was married in 1883 and with her husband took up her residence in this city. She had resided at 924 S. Seventeeth street since the death of her husband several years ago.

Immediate survivors include five daughters, Mrs. Alex Herman, Mrs. John Komorsky, Mrs. John Woyta, Mrs. Rudy Howarth and Mrs. Oscar Wendorf, all of this city; two sons, John and August Daron, this city; five brothers, Lawrence of Chicago; Louis of Thiensville; George of Milwaukee, John of Newton and Joseph of Manitowoc, and three sisters, Mrs. Susan Karbowsky, Two Rivers; Mrs. William Theidman, Sheboygan, and Mrs. Michael Plotka of Manitowoc. Seventeen grandchildren and one great grandchild also survive.

The remains will be removed from the Leschke funeral home late this afternoon and funeral services will be held from the home at 924 South Seventeeth street at 9:00 o'clock and from the St. Mary church at 9:30 o'clock on Monday morning with Rev. Pociecha officiating. Interment will take place at the church cemetery.
