Lake Odessa Wave, 8 Nov 1918

John Reahm’s Death Caused By Influenza
Wife Has Disease First But Recovers.  Large Family Mourns Death. Services at
Cemetery.

John Reahm died Tuesday, Oct. 29, after a short illness of seven days, of pneumonia,
following influenza.  Mrs. Reahm had the trouble first and when getting better Mr.
Reahm was taken and death resulted.  They were unable to get a trained nurse and
therefore lacked the proper care that is so necessary.

Mrs. Reahm will go to Dayton, O., with her sister, Miss Leslie Clark, who is a
bookeeper there, but who came home to be with her sister in her time of trouble. 
Mrs. Reahm was formerly Miss Nettie Clark, daughter of George Clark, living north of
town.

Mr. Reahm was one of the sons of Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Reahm who are proud of their
large family of splendid children.  All have the sympathy of many people here as all
parties are old residents.
