Irving E. Sherman, son of the late Otis W. and Anna (Wierschem) Sherman, was
born May 13, 1901 at Chili (Clark Co., Wis.). The family lived at Chili,
Marshfield and Loyal before coming to Greenwood in 1906. He attended Greenwood

bed at his home on Tuesday, October 28, 1958, where he has lived alone since the
