Henry Detlef Paper died at his house following an illness which had extended over a long period of years. For the past few years he had been an invalid and unable to leave his room. His passing was not unexpected.
Funeral services were conducted by the Rev. Harry Mumm at St. John's Church. He based his sermon on the text found in Hebrews 11:8-10. Favorite hymns were by a quartet, Mrs. Adolph Hobel, Mrs. Lambert Houfek, R.H. Olson, and Rev. Mumm, accompanied by Mrs. Theodore Mrstny. Flower bearers were Mrs. Carl Wiechen, Mrs. Rikus Rosendahl, Mrs. J.B. Jenny, and Mrs. Emanuel Teply. Pallbearers were Karl Schroeder of Schuyler; Otto Bruns, Peter Hogendorn, John Herink, John and Fred Severin. Burial was in the Leigh cemetery.
Born in Kettlesbuettle Germany, June 6, 1869, Mr. Paper died at Leigh, Nebraska, July 9, 1946, at the age of 77 years, one month and three days. He received his education and was confirmed in the Lutheran faith in Germany and, at the age of 15 years, came to this country. After farming in Dodge County, this state, for several years, he came to Colfax County in 1894. In 1909, he made a trip back to Germany to visit his relatives and his native village.
He was married to Miss Alvina Herbst at Leigh, October 16, 1912. They lived on different farms in the locality before purchasing the farm two miles south of town which remained their home until three years ago when they retired and moved to Leigh. Mr. Paper was a member of St. John's Church and of the Sons of Herman Lodge.
Of the six children born to Mr. and Mrs. Paper, one died in infancy. Surviving are his wife, four daughters, Mrs. Etta Wurdeman, Mrs. Viola Sucha and Miss Gladys of Leigh; and Mrs. Lena Eller of Fremont; and one son, Henry Paper Jr., of Leigh. There are seven grandchildren. Mr. Paper also leaves one brother, Gus Paper, and one sister, Mrs. Peter Claussen, of Bloomfield. [ColfaxDeutschlandPlatte.FBK.FTW]
