ELMER FORD IS DEATH VICTIM
Funeral Will Be Held On Friday For 48-Year-Old Man
Elmer Ford, 48, a well known resident of this city for the past 18 years, died
suddenly at his home at 1418 18th street at 6:15 this morning, a victim of heart
attack. Mr. Ford had been in poor health for the past three years, but his
illness became serious in the past few months.
Funeral services will be held Friday morning at nine o’clock from the Klein and
Stangel chapel to St. Luke’s Catholic church, with the Rev. Father C. V. Hugo
officiating. Interment will be in Calvary cemetery. The remains can be viewed at
the Klein and Stangel funeral home after seven o’clock tonight.
Born in Marinette, January 23, 1886, his parents passed away when Mr. Ford was a
child. At the age of 17 he left Marinette. Twenty-one years ago, July 12, he was
married in Racine to Miss Helen Schreiner of this city. They lived in Racine for
several years and then moved to this city, residing here since.
For many years, Mr. Ford was employed as a painter at the Metal Ware corporation,
but illness which he suffered a year ago caused his retirement. Previously he had
worked at the Hamilton and Aluminum Goods company plants. He was a member of the
Knights of Columbus and the Holy Name society of St. Luke’s church.
Besides his widow, he leaves three daughters, Hazel, Lila May and Kathryn Ann, all
at home, two sons, Claude and Elmer Jr., also at home, and five stepsisters and
two stepbrothers.
