Mr. Olerich was taken ill a week ago today, but was not considered in a serious condition until yesterday morning. Death was the result of pneumonia. He was 73 years old. Funeral services will be held in the home at 1203 north Main street at 2 o'clock Thursday and services will be conducted by the Rev. Henry C. Schneider, pastor of the First Presbyterian church. Burial will be in the city cemetery by the side of his wife and the pallbearers, who have been selected are six grandchildren: Clarence, Ernest, Leo, Archie, Frank, and Clifford Olerich. John Olerich was born at Hazel Green, Wis., Dec. 31, 1857. At the age of 12 he moved with his parents to Kniest township three and one half miles north of Mount Carmel and when 2 years old removed to Breda, where he followed the trade of a carpenter for several years. He was united in marriage May 8, 1883 to Miss Katherine Schachtner at Breda and they continued to live in that town until 1887 when they moved to the old Olerich homestead and lived there until April 1913. That year they purchased the present home on north Main street in Carroll, where they expected to spend the remaining years of their lives in comfort and enjoy the fruits of their labor. His beloved wife Kathryn died Aug. 12, 1930 after an illness of several years. He leaves ten children, five sons and five daughters: Frank Olerich of Sheridan township; Mrs. Henry Koppelman of Auburn; William Olerich of Breda; Robert Olerich of Auburn; Otto Olerich of Carroll; Earl Olerich of Breda; Mrs. Ed O'Toole of Auburn; Mrs. J.A. Kennard of Des Moines; Miss Lillian Olerich, who has been at home giving loving care to her parents for several years; and Mrs. Floyd Hackett of Yetter. He is also survived by 27 grandchildren; a brother, Joseph Olerich of Breda; and a sister, Mrs. Anna Swanson of Lead, S.D. Two brothers and two sisters preceded him in death. Mr. Olerich was a man of high ideals, honest and upright in all his dealings, and believed firmly in the "golden rule." Since his retirement he enjoyed his daily walk down town for a visit with his many friends. He had always had the best of health and never had to call a doctor until he was past 70 years of age at which time he had his first real illness. The end came while he was reposing in peaceful sleep, surrounded by members of his family, and it was a shock to them and his friends. Robert Olerich of Auburn has been seriously ill with pneumonia and will be unable to attend the funeral.
