MILDRED RADEWALD, 9, DIES WHILE ON VISIT

Passes Away at Janesville, Wisc., at Home of Uncle

 

Mildred Ada Radewald, nine years, daughter of Mrs. Ada Amon Radewald, died on Tuesday afternoon at the home of the child's uncle, Roy Amon, in Janesville, Wis., where she was visiting.  The child's father, George Radewald, died in October, 1927.  Mrs. Radewald and her children had for some time resided with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. George Amon. The latter died on December 15 and after the funeral services Mrs. Radewald and her four children and her father went to Janesville, accompanying her brother, Roy, who had been here for the funeral services to spend the holidays. The four children all became ill with influenza and Mildred died a victim of complications arising from the disease.

The message announcing the child's death was received about 4:30 yesterday afternoon by Mrs. Anna Zimmerman, Grant Street, who had reopened the Amon home on Barrett street in preparation for the return of the family.

Mrs. Radewald stated that the body will be brought to Niles and that she would advise Mrs. Zimmerman further as to the funeral plans.

Mildred was a bright pupil of the third grade in the Fourth ward and was looking forward happily to resuming her work in school today.

Besides her mother, Mildred is survived by two sisters and a brother, Antoinette, Beatrice and George, all younger than she.
