Mrs. William L. Griem, a resident of this city for more than 30 years, died at her home on south State street Sunday morning. Death was due to pneumonia which followed an attack of flu. Mrs. Griem had been sick for about two weeks and confined to her bed for ten days.
Mrs. Griem’s girlhood name was Ann Elizabeth Herberg. She was born at Port Jervis, N.Y., Dec. 13, 1858. Both of her parents died while she was still a child. She lived there, however, until she was 21 years of age when she set out by herself for a visit with relatives in New Holstein. While visiting there she met William L. Griem to whom she was married Dec. 13, 1884.
The young couple established their home in New Holstein where Mr. Griem operated a blacksmith shop until 1900. He became a candidate for sheriff of Calumet County that years, was successful in the election, and then moved his family to this city where they have lived since. Subsequently Mr. Griem served for many years as treasurer of Calumet County.
Mrs. Griem was the mother of three children, all of whom survive; Rose (Mrs. Otto Bechlem) who lives here; Miss Marianna, who has lived with her parents; and George Griem, also a resident of this city.
Slight of figure, frail in appearance with a kindly face and gentle manners, Mrs. Griem had endeared her self to many friends here who were shocked Sunday by the news of her sudden death. To them she was known as a woman of spirit and energy, unselfish, accustomed to hard work and ready always with acts of self-sacrifice for others. Because of her kindly, sympathetic nature, it was her habit to be friendly to others, a quality of character which endeared her to many people.
Mrs. Griem was for 32 years a devoted member of the German Ladies’ Aid Society of which she was a past president. During her tenure as president she distinguished herself for the energy and decision she brought to her work and for her ability to find things to do and get them done.
The funeral was held Wednesday from the residence. Burial was in Hillside cemetery, Rev. George Schmid, New Holstein, officiated at the home and at the grave.
