Franz (Frank) Krämer, Sr.  -- 1933 
from the Burlington Call, Burlington, Colorado

       Franz Kramer, son of the parochial school teacher, Claus Kramer, was born in Arbara, Austria-Hungaria Monarchy, December 26, 1853.  On December 31 he was baptized.  At the age of 13 he went with his parents to Birsala, South Russia, where they made their home until 1889 when he immigrated to the United States and settled down north of Bethune on the farm where he lived ever since.
 
       On June 10, 1869 he was confirmed and at the age of 23 he was married to Barbara Neibecker.  This union was blessed with 10 children, five girls and five boys.  Four sons and one daughter preceded the father in death.  Those alive are Frank, Marie, Christena, Margaratha, Rosie.  His first wife died in 1894. After two years he married Fredericka Adolf.  With his second wife he had seven children.  Two died before their father passed away.  Those alive are Chris, William, Katie, Pauline and Emilie.  About 17 years ago his second wife died.  Nine times he stood at the grave of one of his immediate family which consisted of seventeen children, 22 grandchildren, and 3 great grandchildren.
 
         He was a member of the Lutheran Immanuel Church, north of Bethune as long as he lived in Kit Carson County.  On December 12 in the evening, he received holy communion.  He was suffering with an attack of pneumonia.  He expressed his faith in the Savior and desired to die.  And in this faith he died on December 14, 1933 at 2:15 p.m. at the age of 79 years, 11 months, and 18 days.  Funeral service conducted by H. L. Woelber, was held December 16 at 1:30.  His remains is resting on the Lutheran Cemetery of the Immanuel Church awaiting the resurrection on the great day.  
 
         With the numerous friends which are left behind, the CALL wishes to extend its sympathy.

H.E. Wilske, pastor
Burlington, Colorado
