MARY PLATTEN
Dec. 8, 1924 "Death Comes as She Kneels at Prayers. Mrs. John Platten, St. Nazianz, Stricken at Church." Death came to Mrs. John Platten well known resident of St. Nazianz, as she was at prayer Monday morning. Stricken at the services Mrs. Platten was removed to her home in unconscious state and never regained consciousness passing away at 9:30 Monday evening. Her death is a great shock to the community. Funeral services will be held at St. Gregory's church at which she was an attendant, Thursday morning. Mrs. Platten had attended first mass at the church and as she kneeled was seen to suffer and when other worshippers went to her assistance it was thought she had fainted. Efforts to revive her failed and a physician found that she had suffered a stroke which proved fatal a few hours later.
"Came to the State in 1866."
Born at Detroit, Mich., August 16, 1864, Mrs. Platten, nee Mary Schuettler, came to Wisconsin with her parents when but two yearsold in 1866 and had since resided here. She had made her home in St. Nazianz for twelve years, previous to that time residing on a farm.
She is survived by her husband and two children, Peter Platten on the old homestead a mile north of St. Nazianz and Miss Hildegard Platten.
Four brothers John Schuettler of Washington, Nicholas and Joseph, of St. Nazianz and Frank of St. Cloud, Minn., and three sisters, Mrs. Margaret Hildebrand, St. Nazianz, Mrs. Katherine Biskobink, of Plymouth and Mrs. Theresa Kutz, Milwaukee and three grandchildren also survive.
