FEB 1878 - 14 Feb 1915) Miss Lulu Hommel
died at the city hospital, St. Paul, on Sunday, Feb. 14, 1915,
death resulting from tuberculosis, complicated with other diseases.
Although in poor health, she did not go to the hospital till
Thursday preceding her death, but she declined rapidly near the
end. Her father, Maj. J.W. Hommel, went to St. Paul Saturday and
was with her before she died. Lulu Marie Hommel
was born in Neillsville, Clark County, Feb. 22, 1878 and spent all
her girlhood days here. After nearly completing the high school she
took a business course, and became bookkeeper at the furniture
factory, where she worked for several years. Later she kept books
in N.D., traveled for some time as a saleslady for a drug firm, and
for some time past was bookkeeper in a millinery store at St. Paul.
She was a bright capable woman, and made friends everywhere she
went. Besides her father
and stepmother, she leaves one sister, Mrs. V.C. Woelffer of this
city and a brother Placido, who is a medical student in Chicago.
The funeral was held at the Woelffer home Tuesday afternoon, Rev.
L.B. Coleman officiating.
