Funeral services were held Tuesday afternoon at St. John's Lutheran Church of North Spencer for Frank Bruss, 85, of Spencer, who died Saturday evening at the Marathon County Health Center at Wausau.

The Rev. David Ault, pastor, officiated, and burial was made in the church cemetery. Pallbearers were Elmer Bruss, Willard Bruss, Rueben Frank, Lester Frank, Elmer Georges, and Joe Sommerholder. The congregation sang "Rock of Ages" and "What a Friend We have in Jesus." Miss Marsha Lynn was the organist.
