Hecker received the shocking news Sunday evening that his brother, W. A. Hecker, had been found dead in his Omaha home at 2840 So. 34 th St., where he had lived alone since his wife's death ten years ago. The discovery was made when neighbors called the police to investigate when they had failed to see him about the premises as was his custom to do. Death apparently resulted from a heart attack which came upon him as he sat in a chair; seemingly just after returning home, since his hat and coat were nearby. Neighbors had last seen him on Friday. William A. Hecker, son of Mr. & Mrs. W. C. Hecker, former pioneer residents of this community, was born Jan. 21, 1879, at Hooper and was therefore 66 years of age at the time of his death last weekend. He grew to manhood here, working as a youth in his father's store and graduating from high school in 1896 and later attending Midland College at Atkinson, Kans., for a couple of years. On June 11, 1913, he was united in marriage to Juliet Frost of West Point, she preceded him in death Oct. 19, 1935. The couple had no children and so the only close surviving relatives are his Hooper brother, August E. Hecker, and a sister, Mrs. C. C. Cushman of Fremont, three nieces and two nephews . From 1906 until 1919 Mr. Hecker was employed first as a bookkeeper and later as an assistant cashier at the First National Bank, coming to Hooper from a position in a bank at Uehling. He served as village clerk for a number of years, was a member of the old Hooper Silver Cornet band, the baseball team and local fraternal orders. On leaving Hooper in 1919 he took up employment with the Woodman of the World Insurance company in Omaha which position he held until his retirement on pension a little over a year ago. Funeral rites were held yesterday afternoon from the Grace Lutheran church, the church with which he was affiliated while a resident of Hooper, with Rev. Paul de Freese as the officiating clergyman. Interment was made beside the remains of his wife in the Hooper cemetery. Funeral arrangements were in charge of Wollmer & Warne. Music for the services was by Coletta Ott and Lois Stigile with Shirley Roth as organist. Serving as pallbearers were H. T. Ring, R. Stroh, Dr. J. S. Zellers, W. E. Sanders. J. L. Alperstedt and Edw. Dau.
