Albert Lutterman Dies Suddenly

Albert Lutterman died suddenly at his home a half mile south of Wellsburg at 2:30 Tuesday morning from a heart ailment. His health had been failing the past two years. He felt as well as he had been the night before his death and he remained up some time to listen to the radio. He seemed to be in good spirits when he went to bed. The heart attack came on suddenly and he passed out very quickly.

Funeral services will be held at the home at one o'clock Friday afternoon and later at the Second Christian Reformed church in Wellsburg. The service will be conducted by Rev. John Rubingh. Burial will be in the cemetery adjoining the Reformed church.
