DIED. - KRAMER - In New Orleans, La., at 11:45 p.m. on Friday, March 4, 1921, 
Mrs. Annie Redersheimer Kramer, aged 71 years.

Mrs. Kramer was the widow of the late John Kramer, a prominent and respected 
citizen of Alexandria, who preceded her to the grave a number of years ago. She 
had been ill for the past four weeks, and passed away at the home of her 
brother, Mr. George Redersheimer.

Mrs. Kramer was a native of Germany, but came to this country at the age of four 
years. She resided in New Orleans until the year 1869, at which time she came to 
Alexandria, and resided here continuously for fifty-one years. Since the death 
of her husband she has spent a considerable portion of her time in New Orleans.

Mrs. Kramer was a devout Catholic and always adhered scrupulously to that faith. 
She was a most estimable woman and was possessed of a kind and amiable 
personality, which made friends of all with whom she came in contact. While her 
death had been expected for some days past, nevertheless it came as a great 
shock to her family and many friends.

She was married to Mr. Kramer in 1870, and eleven children survive as the issue 
of the union. They are as follows: Messrs. George and Victor Kramer, of New 
York; Mrs. E. E. Chavanne and Mrs. M.A. Quilty, of Lake Charles; Mrs. Warren 
Oertling, Messrs. P.L. Kramer and J.B. Kramer, of New Orleans; Mrs. Dan Jacobs, 
Mrs. Josephine Haines, Messrs. C.P. Kramer and M.R. Kramer, of Alexandria. She 
also leaves twenty-four grandchildren and her brother, Mr. George Redersheimer, 
of New Orleans.

Her remains will arrive here on the Texas & Pacific train this afternoon and 
will be conveyed to the residence of her daughter, Mrs. Dan Jacobs, 822 Elliot 
street. The funeral will take place Sunday afternoon, the procession leaving the 
residence of Mr. and Mrs. Jacobs at 4:30 o'clock and proceeding to St. Francis 
Xavier's Cathedral, where services will be conducted. Interment will be made in 
the Rapides cemetery in Pineville, under the direction of James Williams, of the 
Kelly undertaking establishment.

Town Talk joins their many friends in extending to the bereaved children sincere 
sympathy in the loss of their idolized mother.
