Charles F. Diers, 65, passed away in St. Joseph’s Hospital, Marshfield, on Saturday evening, June 5, after a brief illness.

Mr. Diers was born on August 10, 1916, in the Town of Pine Valley to Carl and Alma (Bardeleben) Diers. He received his education in Pine Valley and Neillsville Schools and then farmed in the Town of Pine Valley for several years.
