Frank Haag quietly passed away at his home east of town last Saturday. The deceased was sick only a short time. He suffered a stroke of paralysis about a week ago and never fully recovered from the effects. Mr. Haag was a man who was well liked by the entire community who showed it by being present to show their last respects to their deceased friend. Mr. Haag was 61 years of age and lived in this community most of his life. All of his children but Lewis and Mrs. Ed Gelfer were able to be present at the funeral. Services were held from St. Anthony's church of which Mr. Haag was a devout member. The sympathy of the entire community goes with the bereaved family.
