Another shock to this community was the death of Mrs. Sam Wacker which occurred shortly after noon Wednesday at the St. Catherine hospital in McCook where she underwent an operation the day previous, Mrs. Wacker having been in the hospital for several weeks previous where physicians had attempted to build up her strength in order that she might withstand the operation. Funeral services will be held in the Evangelical church here Sunday afternoon at 2 o'clock, and burial will be made in the Culbertson cemetery.
While Mrs. Wacker has been suffering from a lingering ailment for several years and also had undergone numerous operations, friends and relatives were shocked to learn of her death. Physicians had indicated an operation the only hope left, but unfortunately she was unable to withstand the operation and her death resulted.
Mrs. Wacker had been a resident of this community for many years, being the daughter of Mrs. Kate Wagner of southeast of Culbertson. She is a member of one of the community's oldest families and is one of a large family of children.
About three years ago the family moved to McCook from Culbertson and only about a month ago Mr. Wacker moved back to Culbertson and took rooms over the Culbertson hotel. Mrs. Wacker was unable to accompany the family here and was taken to the hospital at McCook where she remained until the time of her death.
She is survived by her husband and three sons, Wayne and Wilbert, who are attending school at Naperville, Illinois and Roland at home and a student in the local schools.
