Coopersville Observer, Feb. 13, 1941
Prominent Ravenna business Man An Illinois Auto Accident Victim

  Early last week, George K. Herman left for a business and vacation trip to 
New Mexico, stopping in Chicago for a day of two.  He and Mr. THUMA left 
Chicago on Wednesday and later that afternoon, he was seriously injured in an 
automobile accident in Anawan, IL and was taken to a hospital in Genesco, IL, 
where his family were sent.  His condition improved on Thursday and his family 
thought that he was on the way to recovery.  His son, Paul HERMAN and 
daughter, Mrs. Bernard KNAUF left for home, leaving Mrs. Herman there.  A 
sudden turn for the worse came and at 10;00, he passed away.  As soon as word 
of his death was received in Ravenna, Mr. NOLLAR and Mrs. Wm. NUTT left for 
the body and Leonard BESTREM and Romaine DECAMP left for Mrs. HERMAN.  The 
body was brought home the next day and services were held last Tuesday.
  He had been a prominent figure in western Michigan for many years.  He had a 
leading automobile business and was interested in banking and farming. He had 
been director and vice-president of the Berlin fair.  He was a booster, and 
his loss will be felt in the community for a long time.
