Funeral Services for Mrs. Albert Wald Held Here This Afternoon
Funeral services were held here this afternoon for Mrs. Albert Wald, who passed away in the early ours of Saturday morning at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Carl Herts at Pewaukee. Mrs. Wald had been ill for some time, and four weeks ago she was taken to the home of her daughter, who is a nurse, that she might have better care. However, careful nursing and the best of medical attention were of no avail.
The deceased, who was 58 years of age, was born Oct. 9, 1877, at Slades Corners. Her maiden name was Ida Rasch, and she was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Rasch. Her girlhood was spent in that locality and on Oct. 28, 1902, she was married to Albert Wald, the ceremony being performed at Slades Corners.
Following their marriage, Mr. and Mrs. Wald made their home on the Rasch homestead for a time, later coming to this city, and some years thereafter purchasing a farm north of Burlington on the star route. With the exception of some years spent in Milwaukee, this remained their home until Mrs. Wald's death.
Surviving Mrs. Wald are her husband, Albert Wald and three daughters, Mrs. Adolph Olson, Eau Claire, Mrs. Carl Hertz, Pewaukee, and Leah, Burlington. She is also survived by two grandchildren and two sisters, Mrs. Julia Kline, Kenosha, and Mrs. Floyd LeMay, Oconomowoc.
Funeral services were held this afternoon at 1:30 from McCarthy's funeral home and at 2 oclock(sic) from St. John's Lutheran church with the Rev. L.W. Baganz officiating. Burial was in the Burlington cemetery at Brown's lake.
