Schmidt, Mrs. Frank (6 NOV 1891 - 27 NOV 1918)

Mrs. Frank H. Schmidt died at her home in the town of Worden, Clark County, Wis., of influenza, on Wednesday, Nov. 27, 1918, after a short but severe illness. Deceased was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Fred W. Fischer, residents of the same township, and was born Nov. 6, 1891. She was united in marriage to Frank H. Schmidt on May 21, 1912. This union was blessed with two children, Raymond, born May 4, 1913, and Dorothy, born March 15, 1916, who together with the sorrowing husband survive. Much has been taken from this husband and little children, from parents, brothers, sisters and friends; sweet ties have been severed, but much is left. The Christian's hope and fadeless memories are still theirs. The funeral, which was largely attended, took place on Saturday morning last from St. Bernard's Catholic Church, Father Neises officiating, interment following in the Catholic Cemetery.
