Mrs. Karl Spinner, 81, Died Monday; Services Today
A resident of Green River since coming here as a bride in June of 1901, Therese Spinner, 81, widow of the late Karl Spinner, passed away Monday afternoon at the home of her daughter, Mrs. George (Louise) Graf. She had been in ill health for several months, but on the whole had been unusually active for a woman of her age. Final rites were this morning.
Mrs. Spinner was a quiet person who won enduring friendships, and persons throughout Green River personally mourn her passing. During her lifetime, her love was for her home and her family, but her kindnesses and aid to others in sickness and times of emergency were never to be forgotten.
Both she and Mr. Spinner, in their lives in Green River, were of the quiet, steady type upon which our town built its foundations well.
Mrs. Spinner was born June 3, 1876, in Renchen, Germany. Mr. Spinner first came to Green River from Renchen in 1890, but eight years later returned to his native town. He remained there three years, and on Apr. 26, 1901 the couple were married. She accompanied him on his return to Green River, June 3 of the same year. They made their home in Green River for the remainder of their lives, Mr. Spinner for years operating a meat market here.
She was a deeply religious woman and held membership in the Catholic church and in its Altar Guild, to which, in her active years, she devoted much time.
She was a charter member of the Sweetwater County Historical society. She had two hobbies sewing and gardening, being excellent with both.
Mr. Spinner and a son Frank, who died in infancy, preceded her in death. She is survived by her daughter, Mrs. Graf, and one grandchild, Mary Louise Graf of San Diego.
Rosary was recited at the Francom mortuary chapel at 8 p. m. Wednesday, while the funeral services were at the Church of the Immaculate Conception at 9:30 a. m. today, Thursday, the Rev. John Marley officiating. Burial was in Riverview cemetery.
Friends who served as pallbearers were: C. A. Kemp, C. M. Morck, Jr., George M. Stephens, E. H. Weed, Alton Thrasher and Franklin Gasson, Honorary pallbearers: William Hutton, Jr., S. G. Thornhill, Charles A. Viox, Edward Riley, William Malonek and J. V. Bernard.
