Frank A. Schuster, son of John G. Schuster and Magdalena Schuster was born July 14, 1863, at Warsaw, Illinois, and died September 1, 1949 at the Graham Hospital in Keokuk, Iowa, at the age of 86 years, one month and 16 days.
Mr. Schuster's parents came to this country from Germany at an early age. His father was 12 years old and his mother was six years old when they crossed the Atlantic Ocean. His parents moved to Missouri in 1865 to the farm 5 miles east of Wyaconda, where Mr. Schuster has lived practically all of his life.
On December 1, 1897, he was married to Nancy Alice Woodruff who preceded him in death, January 10, 1948. To this union one child, was born, Raymond Woodruff Schuster. As Mr. Schuster had been in poor health for sometime, Raymond and his family had moved from Wyaconda to take care of his father.
He was one of a family of ten children, namely, George, Mary Parmelia, Elizabeth, John Williams, Frank, Benjamin, Amelia and Freddie and Frank, twins, and Edward. Nearly all his brothers and sisters have preceded him in death.
He leaves to mourn his passing, his son, Raymond and Raymond's wife, Mable; five grandchildren, namely, Mrs. Roberta Rule, Leland, Franklin and Gale Schuster of Wyaconda and Richard of Williamsfield, Ill.: four great grandchildren, one sister, Mrs. Amelia Ahrens of Mukwonago, Wisconsin and a brother, Ben of Milwaukee, Oregon; and a number of nieces and nephews.
Early in life he was converted under the preaching of Reverend Matt Sexsmith at a revival meeting held at Carmel church in January 1887, where his membership has been ever since his conversion. He was a very devoted christian, loyal to his friends and very conscientious in his beliefs and in standing for the things that were for the best welfare of his country and while he will be greatly missed, we know that one more of God's noble men has passed on to his reward and that some time in the future, we who love our Savior will see him again in that far away land where there is no care or sorrow.
Funeral services were held at Woodville church, Saturday, September 3, at 2 p.m., with Rev. Ivan Cull in charge of the service.
Singers were Mrs. Josephine Fry and Mrs. Phyllis Hutchinson, with Mrs. George Baskett at the piano. Pallbearers were Harry Clark, Sam Hays, Fred Bowman, Carl Hesse, Richard LaFrenz, and Wm. Denning.
Those attending from a distance were Mr. & Mrs. Walter Ahrens, Irwin and Dorothy Ahrens of Mukwonago, Wis., and Mrs. Dora Ziglar of Burlington, Iowa.
