Ionia County New, Thursday, Oct. 25.1928
William Henry Reimer was born in Pennsylvania, June 30, 1854, and after a long 
illness died at his home in Palo October 19, 1928, his age being 74 years, 3 
months and 19 days.

He came to Michigan with his parents while in his teens.  In 1876, September 
30, he was united in marriage to Alice J. Allchin of Montcalm County.  To this 
union was born a son, Fred G.

Mr. Reimer has lived in Palo for 51 years. He was a carpenter and contractor 
and has built many houses in neighboring communities.  For over 41 years Mr. 
Reimer and his wife have been members of the Palo Methodist Episcopal church.  
For over 30 years he was the treasurer of the church, and for several years 
superintendent of the Sunday School and teacher of a boys' class.  This is 
eloquent testimony of the confidence that the community has had in him.  Not 
only has he been loyal to the church, but he was liberal and considerate in 
his relationships with men.  He had a reputation for industry.

He leaves to mourn his loss his faithful wife, his son, three grandchildren, 
two brothers, Emanuel and Clark, both of Palo and one sister, Mrs. Emma 
Copeman of Idaho.

The funeral service was held at the Palo Methodist church Sunday afternoon 
with Rev. W.H. Holcomb of Greenville and the pastor Floyd N. Drake 
officiating.  Burial was in the Palo cemetery.
