Mrs. Klecka, Mrs. Parr, Mrs.
Moran, Mrs. Hofmeister, Mrs.
Riha, Mrs. Rokos, Uncle Frank
Klecka and other members of
the family of Marshal Klecka,
distinguished guests & friends:
Today in this hour of be-
reavement, we morn the pass
ing Of our most devoted leader
and councillor, U. S. Marshal
August Klecka.
A great calamity to which
any community is subjected.
The loss by death of it's leader
upon whom the mental power
had been bestowed and in
whom the affections of it's peo-
pie had befallen our communi-
ty in the death of our leader
councillor.
The leadership of such a man
does not end with his life, Mar
shall Klecka will be long re-
membered as we place him a.
mong the exalted and immor-
tai dead. The work and name
of Marshal Klecka will live on,
not only today or Tomorrow,
but in the annals of recorded
time, attesting all things he
achieved, all Of the things
which he dreamed in keeping
with the great love in which he
was held by so many of his
people, and especially by the
working men, who placed such
high trust in him.
Therefore, it is our belief
that Devine Providence has
chosen to call to his fold an
other shepherd of a flock. May
Devine Providence rest his
soul.
