Damerow, Herman A. (1880 - 1955)


GREENWOOD, CLARK COUNTY--Funeral services will be held at 2 p.m. Friday at Trinity Lutheran Church for Herman August Damerow, 74, who died at 9 p.m. Tuesday, Jan. 25, 1955 at the Havenet Nursing Home in Owen. The Rev. H. F. Brauer will officiate and burial will take place in the Braun Settlement Cemetery.


Mr. Damerow had been a patient at the Nursing Home since Jan. 17, prior to that he had been a patient at St. Joseph's Hospital, Marshfield, for several weeks. He had been in ill health the past several years.


Born May 26, 1880, in Germany, Mr. Damerow came to the United States in 1896 and settled in Columbus. His parents joined him there and they all came to Greenwood on April 12, 1902.


After his marriage to Selma Pearson on Jan. 6, 1921, in Cannon Falls, Minn., the couple lived on a farm 8 miles northwest of here until their retirement in 1946, when they came to their present home in this city.


Mr. Damerow was active in church work and held several church offices.


Surviving are two brothers, Paul Damerow, Greenwood, and William Damerow, San Francisco, Calif., and a sister, Mrs. George (Liechen) Fisk, Milwaukee.


His wife died March 30, 1949. Four sisters also preceded him in death. One sister, Mrs. Edward died of a heart attack on Jan. 11 while caring for Mr. Damerow when he was a patient at St. Joseph's Hospital.


Friends may call at the Hill Funeral Home, where the body will repose until 11:30 a.m. Friday, when it will be taken to the church.
