Dr. Klingler, because of his gentle disposition his keen interest in his fellow-men, was loved by the entire community old and young.
For years his drug store has been a meeting place for social gatherings of a group of the older townsmen. Both the Doctor and Mrs. Klingler, who worked together until the store was closed several weeks ago, ideal mates, made their pharmacy an institution in the community. Both are held in the highest esteem. Their place of business will be missed as will the venerable proprietor.
Funeral services were held Tuesday afternoon at the home in charge of Rev. Edward Ullrich, pastor of St. Paul's Evangelical and Reformed Church. Burial was made in the family crypt in the mausoleum in West Side Cemetery.
