Michael Goeler, aged 62, passed away Monday night from the effects of a
stroke of paralysis of which he had suffered three attacks in the past
eighteen months.
Deceased was born in Dillmore, Germany in 1855. At the age of twenty-six
he emigrated to America making his home in Chicago for a few years and
while there he was married to Miss Katherine Trossen who survives him.
They then came to Two Rivers and have made this city their home since,
Mr. Goeler engaging in the tailoring business until two years ago when
he relinquished his work for reasons of health.
Eighteen months ago he sustained a severe stroke of paralysis which kept
him a long time in bed and left him permanently lame on one side.
However, with the use of cane he was, for several months, able to walk
to church many blocks away and back home. On New Year's day he made his
last trip to town. Next day he suffered another stroke since which he
has been confined to his home and death was to him a welcome messenger.
Decedent is also survived by two sons Peter of this city and Albert of
Chicago and five daughters, Mary, Susie, Katherine and Julia of this
city and Sister Aquinata of St. Mary's Convent who teaches New London.
The funeral was held this morning from St. Luke's church, Rev. Father
Hugo officiating.
