In failing health for a year, he was taken to St. Anthony Hospital in Carroll early Monday morning, November 10, 1969, and died there later in the morning.

He was preceded in death by his parents, a brother, Herman, and two sisters, Mrs. Amanda Frahm, and Mrs. Laura Joens.

He is survived by four sisters, Mrs. Lillie Joens, Mrs. John (Lena) Joens, Mrs. Elsie Rix, and Edna Schroeder, all of Manning.
