Bio

News of the death of W.A. Seifert, well-known owner and proprietor of the Loup City Mill, came as a great shock to the family and friends when it became known that he died quite suddenly last Thursday evening about seven-thirty o'clock while sitting in the pool hall watching some friends play cards. He had been about his work at the mill during the day as usual and to all appearances was in excellent health. Wilhelm A. Siefert was born on March 11, 1881, at Ashton, Nebr., and died in Loup City, Nebr., on November 19, 1931, aged 50 years, 8 months and 8 days. Most of his life was spent on his farm near Ashton. About eight years ago he built the mill in Loup City and had operated the same until the time of his death. On January 6, 1910, he was married to Anna Gujhar (sic) to which union three children were born, all of whom survive him. The are: Arthur, Raymond and Irma. He is also survived by his wife, two sister, Mrs. Eloise Hachten, of Los Angeles, Cal.; and Mrs. Hans Rein of Loup City, as well as other relatives. He was formerly a member of the Evangelical church at Ashton, and after moving to Loup City, he was associated in his worship with the Presbyterian Church. He was always a home-loving man, always glad to go home; glad to be there and reluctant to leave. He loved his family and made provision for their future welfare. He was an unassuming man, but possessed a quite aggressiveness that enabled him to overcome difficulties and succeed. Services were conducted at the home near Ashton on Sunday afternoon at two o'clock by Rev. I.M. Harwood of the Presbyterian church of Loup City with Austin quartet singing. Burial was made in the Ashton cemetery. The weather was very bad, and driving very difficult, yet a goodly number of friends were present to pay their last respects to a stable citizen, a splendid neighbor, a good man. The sympathy of all goes out to the bereaved family and relatives who mourn the loss of this loved one. ---Courtesy of The Ashton Herald, December 4, 1931---
