Brandt, Alvena L. (9 August 1874 - 3 April 1965)

 

Funeral services were held Tuesday afternoon in Mt. Prospect, Ill., for Mrs. Alvena L. Brandt, 90, formerly of Neillsville, who died Saturday in St. Joseph’s Hospital in Marshfield. The Rev. W. Dotson officiated at services from the Ohlers Funeral Chapel.  Burial was made in Memorial Estate Cemetery in Melrose Park, Ill.

 

Mrs. Brandt, the former Alvena Schroeder, was born August 9, 1874, in Juneau County, where she attended schools.  Following her marriage to the late Albert Brandt in Wonewoc, they were engaged in farming. Thirty-five years ago they came to Neillsville.

 

She was a charter member of the Methodist Church in Mt. Prospect.  For the last year Mrs. Brandt had made her home with her granddaughter and husband, Mr. and Mrs. Frank Mohr, in Illinois, coming to Neillsville at various times to visit at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Amy Lewerenz.

 

Surviving are a daughter, Mrs. Amy Lewerenz; two grandchildren, the Rev. Arnold Lewerenz of Madison, and Mrs. Frank (Marion) Mohr of Mt. Prospect; and three great-grandchildren.

 

The body reposed at the Georgas Funeral Home until Monday morning, when it was taken to Mt. Prospect.
