Stanzel, aged 70 years, passed away at the Hallettsville Hospital on March 4, after an illness of about 2 years. Mr. Stanzel was a life long resident of Fayette County, having been born as the son of Frank and Ludmilla Stanzel on August 22, 1874 at High Hill. He was reared in that section and in 1899 was united in marriage to Ludmilla Ripper at the High Hill Catholic Church. As a child he joined the Catholic Church and has been a devoted and faithful member since that time. He was also a member of the St. Josephs Society of the church. He was one of the first members of the High Hill Mannerchor and seldom missed an opportunity to sing with that group. He had been a farmer all his life and worked hard, yet he never complained. About 7 or 8 years ago he retired and about 5 years ago moved from the Middle Creek section to the High Hill area. Three weeks ago he became seriously ill and was taken to the hospital where every thing possible was done to prolong his life. Funeral services were held from the family residence on Tuesday, March 7, at 10:00 a.m. followed by services at the High Hill Catholic Church with Msgr. H. Gerlach officiating. Interment was in the High Hill Catholic Cemetery. Pall bearers were Herman, Victor, Joe and Robert Stanzel, Bernard Berger and Alfons Ripper. Surviving are his wife; 4 daughters, Mrs. Frank Muenster, Jr., of Schulenburg, Mrs. Anton Demel of Pep, Texas, Mrs. F. J. Schmidt, Mrs. Rudolf Winkler and Mrs. Benno Demel, all of Schulenburg; one brother Frank Stanzel of Middle Creek; one sister, Mrs. Agnes Stanzel of Schulenburg, and 15 grandchildren. Three sisters preceded him in death. Schwenke-Baumgarten were in charge of arrangements. We join the many friends of the family in offering our sincere sympathy to the bereaved.
