Julius M. Kittleson
Funeral Held at
First Lutheran here

Funeral services for Julius “Jake” M. Kittleson, 83, of St. Ansgar, who died December 10, 1984 at the Mitchell County Memorial Hospital, Osage were held December 13 at First Lutheran Church here with the Reverend Thomas Hughes officiating.

Julius Martin Kittleson, eldest son of Charles E. & Amelia (Johnson) Kittleson, was born September 16, 1901 on the family farm south of St. Ansgar. He was baptized as an infant at First Lutheran Church here and confirmed there July 30, 1916. He remained a member of the congregation all of his life. He attended St. Ansgar Elementary School, and was graduated from high school here in May 1923. As a young man he operated the movie projector at the City Opera House in St. Ansgar for several years.

After his father’s death, Mr. Kittleson moved back to the family farm where he and his brother, Carl started farming and raising vegetables commercially. Even though he retired from active farming a few years ago, he still took great interest in keeping up the family farmstead.

In 1954 Mr. Kittleson became a member of the board of directors of the St. Ansgar State Bank and was still serving in that capacity at the time of his death.

He married Elvira Mueller July 16, 1965, and they established their home in St. Ansgar.

He is survived by his wife, Elvira; four step-children, William Mueller of Minneapolis, Mrs. Jim (Gretta) Nickerson of Marshfield, Wisconsin, Mrs. Leonard (Marie) Teggatz of Latimer, and Stephen Mueller of River Falls, Wisconsin; also 12 step grandchildren, a brother, Carl of St. Ansgar, two sisters, Clara Haugen of Rapid City, South Dakota and Laura Lund of Sun Lakes, Arizona, nine nieces and nephews and their families, one aunt, Mrs. Lena Tyrell of St. Ansgar and a number of cousins.

Mr. Kittleson was preceded in death by his father in 1921 and his mother in 1949.

Burial was in First Lutheran Cemetery with Reverend Hughes in charge of committal services.

Two Serious Accidents.

Children Badly Injured.

On Monday, little Julius Kittleson had his arm broken and last week little Ralph Kelley of Otranto, losses a foot.

Monday morning the seven year old son of C. E. Kittleson fell from a wagon that he had climbed onto in such a manner as to break his left arm just above the elbow. Dr. Lott was called and set the bone and made little Julius as comfortable as possible though, of course he will suffer some pain for a few days and will not be able to use his arm for some time, but unlike the accident which happened to the little Kelley boy at Otranto, he will suffer no permanent affects.
