Read More	Mrs. B.F. Schroeder, 89, a resident of Emmetsburg since 1886, died in the local hospital Sunday after many months of ill health. Funeral services were held from the home of Mrs. W.R. Schroeder Tuesday afternoon, with the Rev. Paul Huscher, Methodist minister, in charge. Pall bearers were H.W. Stratemeyer of Carroll, Ewart Frederickson of Lake City, Bernard Schroeder of Ruthven, Chas. Morling, Arthur Smith and Casper Nelson. Burial was in Evergreen cemetery, with the Foy Funeral home in charge. Mrs. Schroeder, the former Elizabeth Gill, was born in Dubuque, received her schooling there, and in 1886 she was married to Bernard F. Schroeder. The young couple came to Emmetsburg where Mr. Schroeder was in partnership with a brother-in-law, Henry Beckman, in the implement business. A daughter, Gretchen, their only child, was born to them, and she was a source of much joy and comfort to them. Her freshmen year at Cornell college in 1908 ended tragically when she was stricken with pneumonia, dying there. The blow proved a heart-breaking one for her devoted parents, who never really recovered from the shock. Mr. Schroeder died in 1929, and his wife tried to keep up her courage, spending much of her time in church and Sunday school work. She was a favorite among the children, with her charming manner and friendly, understanding ways. The loss of her own daughter was somewhat softened by her ministrations to other people. In recent years, her eyesight failed and she was almost blind but she seldom complained. Mrs. W. R. Schroeder was a source of much comfort to her, keeping her in her home and making her last days as pleasant as possible. When her condition became critical, the elderly patient was taken to the hospital where death followed. A malignant disease was given as the cause. Source: Emmetsburg Democrat February 7, 1946
