Michael Agostini, Prominent Ionian, Taken By Death

Stores Will Close During Rites on Friday Morning

Ionia’s business section lost one of its oldest merchants Tuesday morning with
the death of Michael Agostini who succumbed at his home on West Main street
following an illness of several months.  “Mike”, as he was familiarly known, was
born in Italy in 1866.  He came to America in April, 1891.

In January, 1900, he started up in business as a confectioner in the location
now occupied by the J.C. Penney company.  About ten years later he built the
business block that bears his name and moved to that location.

Mr. Agostini is survived by his widow, one son, Louis, for several years coach
of the Academy football squad; two grandchildren; two brothers, Silano of Ionia,
and Pompey, of Barga, Italy; and a sister, Mrs. Marie Mazzolini, of Cleveland,
Ohio.

Funeral services will be held from the SS. Peter and Paul church at 9:00 a.m.
Friday.  Interment will be in the family lot at Mt. Olivet cemetery.
