Anderson, Minnie  (24 JUNE 1869-02 JUNE 1946)

Funeral services were conducted here last Wednesday afternoon for Miss Minnie Anderson, 76, who died at 5 a.m. Sunday, June 2, at the home of her nephew, Russell Johnson as a result of a stroke suffered a day before.

Rites were held at the Loyal funeral home at 1:30 p.m. and at the Loyal Methodist church at 2 o’clock, with the Rev. M. E. Taylor officiating. Burial was in the Loyal cemetery.

Miss Anderson was born in Finland on June 24, 1869, and came to Clark county in 1899. About two years layer she went to Kenosha, remaining there until about five years ago, when she returned to Loyal to live with her nephew and niece.

She had been in fair health until she suffered a paralytic stroke on May 1. Only survivors are nephews and nieces.

The hymns, "Only a Touch" and "Beyond the Sunset," were sung at the funeral by Mrs. Calvin Prior and Mrs. Ray Prior, with Mrs. Arnold D.Wickland as accompanist.

Joseph Pachal, William Forman, Frank Pieper, Walter Pieper, Henry Kostlevy and Stoughton Hollowell served as pallbearers.

Those from away who attended the funeral services were Mr. and Mrs. Walter Johnson of Neillsville, Mr. and Mrs. Sigurd Johnson and son, Richard, of Lakewood, Mr. and Mrs. Alfred Anderson and son, Bernard, and daughter, Lois, of Spencer, and Mr. and Mrs.. Nick Bauer of Fond du Lac.

To the survivors, The Tribune extends its sympathy.
