He was assisted to his home -- only a block away -- by Rev. Elster. He had apparently suffered a heart attack and the ambulance was summoned. After being admitted to Sioux Valley hospital he had another attack. However, he appeared to rally and was alert most of the day. Mr. Mattheis passed peacefully into that eternal rest at 3:45 p.m. Monday, Dec. 19. moments after suffering a third heart attack. He attained the age of 76 years and 23 days.
