EDWARD GOETERS (d. 1931)
DEATH COMES TO RELIEF OF EDW. GOETERS
Victim of Auto Injuries Six Years Ago, Invalid Since Then, Passes Away
After being an invalid at his home for over six years, as a result of injuries
suffered in an automobile accident in June of 1924, on Highway 141 a few miles
south of the city, Edward Goeters, 49, foreman of the Central Iron Works here
up to the time of the accident, passed away this morning at his home, 715 South
Fifteenth street. Despite his afflicition which forced Mr. Goeters to remain in
his home with spinal injuries he bore his affliction with fortitude and a
cheerfulness that was remarkable, seeking to lighten the burdens of those whose
care he became. To the very end he maintained a courage that was manifested in
a spirit of resignation with the knowledge that his future was helpless.
The accident on the highway which made an invalid of the deceased occurred when
the Goeters car, which he was driving home from a Sheboygan visit collided with
another machine containing a number of Goodrich boat hands enroute to Sheboygan.
Mr. Goeters was crushed behind the steering wheel and was rushed to the hospital
here. Later he was able to be removed to his home, but the nature of his injuries
precluded all possibility of his ever regaining the full use of his limbs. In the
past few days Mr. Goeters grew constantly weaker and the end came at six o'clock
this morning.
Came Here Learned Machinist Trade
Born in the town of Manitowoc, the son of Mr. and Mrs. Herman Goeters, who still
survive him, Mr. Goeters grew to manhood on the farm and when a young man of
nineteen came to this city to learn the machinist trade at the Smalley Co. Later
he entered the employ of the Central Iron Works, and rose to the positon of
foreman of that company, which he occupied up to the time of the accident.
Married In 1905
In 1905 he was married in this city to Miss Olga Mahler who survives him with one
son, Norman, two sisters, Mrs. Julius Hecker, city and Mrs. William Neubert of
Chicago and his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Herman Goeters of the town of Manitowoc.
Another son preceded his father in death a few months ago.
Mr. Goeters was active in fraternal work in the city. He was a member of the
Chickerming lodge, I.O.O.F. and also the Loyal Order of Moose.
Funeral services for the deceased will be held Thursday afternoon at 1:30 from
the home on South Fifteenth street and at two o'clock from the Reformed church,
Ninth and Hancock streets. The remains will be removed to the home Wednesday
morning from the Wattawa, Urbanek and Schlei mortuary and friends may view them
