HUNSBERGER DIES SUDDENLY - Apoplexy Fatal to Well Known Mishawaka Citizen - Joseph F. Hunsberger, age 60, a lifetime resident of Penn township, widely known in the civic and church circles, was found dead Monday afternoon, 4:30 o'clock, at the foot of the stairs leading to his apartment at 106 1/2 Lincoln Way East. A sudden stroke of apoplexy caused his death, it was announced following physician's examination at St. Joseph's hospital, where he was taken in the city ambulance. Since Mr. and Mrs. Hunsberger reside over their jewelry store at 106 Lincoln Way East, it is assumed that he was stricken with a cerebral hemorrhage as he started to mount the stairs. The body was discovered by a passer-by who called police. Mr. Hunsberger was born Nov 18, 1872, at Woodland, Ind, and has resided in Mishawaka many years. He was an expert machinist and for a time operated a machine shop of his own, later accepting a position with the Dodge Manufacturing company. He was married in April, 1928 to Mrs. Viola Ann Vogt, who survives. He also leaves five brothers and a sister. They are Samuel, of New Parish, Ind; Harley of South of Wakarusa, Ind; John M. and Grant, of Wakarusa; William, of Goshen, Ind, and Mrs. Stella Schroeder, Bremen, Ind. He leaves one son by a previous marriage, Ivo Hunsberger, south of Mishawaka. The body may be viewed in the Schuyler Sprague mortuary from Wednesday until the hour of funeral services, which will be conducted from the Sprague chapel Thursday afternoon, 3 o'clock. Rev. E. K. Van Winkle, pastor of the First Christian church will officiate and burial will be made in Fairview cemetery. Mr. Hunsberger was a member of the First Christian church.
