Duecker, died Monday night from diptheria. The child had been ill for two weeks, and before being taken ill had been in robust health. Dr. Glass was the attending physician. There was no school Tuesday afternoon, and the Duecker home, not being quarantined, his other children were attending school. So all the pupils were dismissed Tuesday afternoon for the purpose of fumigating all the rooms. Little Richard was a bright and lovely child and will be missed in the home and school. He is survived by several brothers and sisters and his parents. Meyersdale Republican, April 7, 1932
