Funeral services are pending with Martin Funeral Home for Frank Bechtel, age 84, of Waukon, Iowa who died Tuesday, December 9, 1997 at Northgate Care Center in Waukon, Iowa.

NOTE OF THE TRANSCRIBER:

Frank F. Bechtel was born February 15, 1913 in Churchtown to Joseph and Emma Augusta (Wirth) Bechtel. His siblings were Selma (Harold) Gruber, Florence (Dewey) Leppert, Leon J. Bechtel, and an adopted sister, LaVina (Harold) Buege.
At the time of Frank's death, Leon J. Bechtel had died on April 11, 1995, and his sister, Florence Leppert had died on September 14, 1995.

I know that Leon Bechtel had a band and I think that Frank also had a band of his own or played in the band with his brother Leon. The Bechtel Band played at a lot of wedding dances in Allamakee County.
