Death called one of our aged pioneer citizens on Christmas day, Dec. 25, 1907, at seven o'clock p. m. Diederich Renze, Sr., whose advancing years had brought feebleness, and at last a malignant stomach trouble of three-weeks duration, was called to eternity. He died well prepared with the consolations of his faith, receiving the Holy Viaticum, and was surrounded by his wife and children. Departed was born September 29, 1822 at Ankum Kr. Bersenbrueck, Prov. Hanover, Germany and was therefore 85 years, 2 months and 26 days old at his death. He was reared to sturdy, honest manhood in his native land, inured to hard work and ever an example of industry, frugality and sobriety. In 1850 he was married to Margaretha Schulte, and they made their home in their native village for many years. Mr. Renze was a tireless hard worker, and made yearly trips to the harbors of the North Sea and other localities in eastern Germany and western Russia, where work was more plenty & pay was better. He could talk entertainingly of his experiences among the Slavs, Poles and other people of strange habits, customs and tongues with whom he came in contact. In 1877 with his family he came to America, directly to Carroll county, where his two eldest sons had preceded him, and had made the start for a home in the new land. They acquired the land which remained the family homestead and on which the wife and youngest son remain at this time. There survive the departed besides his aged wife, his sons, Henry, Diederich, Gerhard, Frank and Fred, also a daughter, Mrs. Marianna Rathman, in Germany, and another daughter, Mrs. Peter Rosauer near Danbury, Iowa. One child died in infancy. The funeral occurred Saturday forenoon from the Catholic church at Roeelle. large numbers of friends and neighbors from far and near being in attendance. The departed was a man of simple, plain habits, open and reserved in his ways and speech. He spoke not evil of his neighbor and gave to each man his just dues. He was a type of old fashioned German manhood and may well serve modern generation as a good example of unspoiled upright character. His good deeds perpetuate his memory among a large circle of friends. He had no enemy and offended no one intentionally. He leaves to his family of respected sons and daughter, a good name and a competence acquired by hard work and frugality. We may well entertain the assurance that he has found grace and mercy before the Father above Whom he sought to serve ever devoutly in his humble way. May eternal life be granted him. Roselle, Iowa, Dec. 30, 1907.
