Mrs. Kranz has been one of the long time settlers of this section of Johnson county, and the numerous friends who gathered at the church last Sunday afternoon to pay their last tributes of respect to her memory were indicative of the esteem in which she was held by them all. She lived a good life and has left a monument of friendship which will never be forgotten. The funeral service was conducted by Rev. Holyoke in the Reformed church Sunday afternoon. Music was furnished by a quartette consisting of Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Yakish, Mrs. H. C. Buell and Forrest Atkin. The pallbebarers were as follows John Brinkmeyer, William Crawford, Henry Joens, George Lenz, John Lingo and James Lukavsky. Interment was made in the local cemetery. The following obituary was read at the service. Katherine Stamm was born in Rock Island County, Illinois, Jan. 22, 1854 and there grew to young womanhood. She was united in marriage with August Kranz, Sept. 5, 1872. Five children blessed this union, one of them, Mrs. Emma Krall went to her reward Feb. 6, 1920. The young couple farmed in Rock Island County but in 1879 they came to Fremont Township, locating on the old home place. In 1909 they left the farm and moved to town. August Kranz passed away May 4th, 1921. About 2 years ago her health began to fail and she gave up her home in Lone Tree, and took up her residence with her daughter, Mrs. Minnie Joens. She has gradually failed in strength and fell asleep at 7:05 Friday morning, aged 71 years, 4 months and 23 days. She is survived by 2 sons and 3 daughters, George of Iowa City, Mrs. Mary Lenz, Mrs. Louise Krall, Mrs. Minnie Joens and Clarence W. of Lone Tree and vicinity and by 3 brothers and 4 sisters, Adam Stamm of Des Moines, Nicholas Stamm of Muscatine, George Stamm of Lone Tree, Mrs. Elizabeth Kusel of California, Mrs. Barbara Tagg of Davenport, Mrs. Louise Smith of Muscatine, Mrs. Mary Schuessler of Lone Tree, 13 grandchildren and 2 great grandchildren. In infancy she was baptised and at the age of 14 was confirmed into the German Lutheran church in which fellowship she has since remained. During her failing days she was always patient and cheerful, with deepest gratitude for every service rendered and with steadfast faith in Jesus Christ.
