Greenwood (Clark Co., Wis.) - Mrs. Katherine Vesel, 73, died at 3 o’clock this morning at the home of her son and daughter-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. John Vesel, Greenwood. Death was caused by old age complications.

The day of the funeral has not been definitely set, but the services will be held either Tuesday or Wednesday at St. Mary’s Catholic Church in Greenwood, of which she was a member. The Rev. J.J. Novak will officiate at the services, and interment will be made in the Greenwood Cemetery.

Mr. and Mrs. Vesel lived in Willard (Clark Co., Wis.) until Feb. 20, 1920, when they moved to Ahmeek, Mich., where Mrs. Vesel lived until her husband’s death two months later. At that time she came to Greenwood and had since lived with her son, John.
