Scheller, William (1850? - 4 Jan 1925)

Mrs. John Habeck received a message Monday morning stating that her uncle, William Scheller, had died at the hospital at Marinette Sunday, Jan. 4th, 1925.

William Scheller was the only living brother of Mrs. Habeck's mother and naturally it was very hard to know that he was gone.

Mrs. Habeck and Mrs. Schelk visited him about three weeks before he died as he was very low at that time. He had injured his knee when a young man and kept treating it whenever it bothered him. At times it was much better, but last fall it became necessary to take him to the hospital where everything available was tried. Gangrene set in, and though they amputated several toes, it didn't help and death came as a relief from suffering.

Mr. Scheller had lived a good span of years, seventy-four in all, and left those behind who loved and respected his name. He visited here about two and one half years ago and made friends of those who met him. He leaves to mourn his loss his wife, a son, and two daughters.

The Clarion offers sympathy to the bereaved.
