at 30_ Ormsby Street and at the time of his 50th wedding anniversary in May 1932 he 
was still actively engaged in the business and said he had no intention of retiring as long 
as is good health continued.

in the present edifice. He has continued a faithful communicant of that church and was a 
member of the St. Joseph's Society and the Holy Name Society of that church.

NOTE: obit hard to read, I appologize if any errors appear. Also note that the submitter 
adds that Klemenz Vogel was christened 20 Nov 1853 (IGI). Since he died at age 85 his 
death would have been 1938.
