Edmund, the son of Mr. and Mrs. John Klapoetke, passed away at the St. Agnes hospital, Fond du Lac, Sunday, December 24. He was a victim of diabetes. Wherever the sad news touched it left sorrow, and the expression of sympathy for the bereaved ones were many and from the heart.
Bright, happy and cheerful, Edmund carried sunshine with him whenever wherever he went. He had always a smile and a pleasant word for his friends. His death comes as a dark shadow to his friends and relatives who loved him so dearly.
He was born in this city on December 11, 1915, and was at the age of 18 years and 13 days. He was a student of the local high school and his sweet face and welcome wave won the hearts of both teachers and pupils. When they heard of his death his classmates with their teacher brought to the saddened home in token of loving remembrance, beautiful flowers, emblems of the pure and gentle spirit, now safe with Him who "carries the lambs in his bosom."
Death is a hard master. He would take from us our brightest and best, but he cannot ever mar memory.
The funeral services were conducted from the St John's Catholic church on Wednesday forenoon. Interment was made in church cemetery. Father Thos. Jankowski, his pastor, officiated.
