La Grange Journal 3 Pauline Willrich Thursday, November 18, 1915 Emil Richers, Sr. While ailing for several years the death of Emil Richers, Sr. which occurred at the family home south of town, November 10, came as a shock, none expecting so sudden an end. He had about decided to remove to Bay City, when his condition grew steadily worse and his end came hurriedly. Emil Richers was born in Germany, and in 1846 came to America. At all times he was identified with the progress of La Grange, was its mayor in the sixties, and for many years a merchant. He was united in marriage with Miss Elise Huebner and to them were born twelve children, two of whom died in infancy. The ten children living are: Mesd. Geo. Kehrer, and F. A. Otto, Houston; Mrs. R. A. Kehrer, Bay City, and Misses Regina and Francis Richers; the five sons are John, Victor, Louis who is married and Gust. and Alfred, all grown. Four sisters, Mrs. P. Nordhausen, Miss Hermina Richers and Mrs. H. A. Eck of Bluff and Mrs. C. Hubrich of Berlin, Germany, and one brother, Robert Richers of Bluff, beside his widow, also survive. In his passing away, the county has lost one of its early and energetic settlers. The remains were placed to their last rest at the Cedar cemetery last Thursday, a large following witnessing the sad rites. May he rest in peace. To his widow, his children and other relatives, we offer our sympathy. A Friend. Card Of Thanks. We desire in this manner to express our thanks to all who were so kind to us when death claimed our husband and father last week. To Dr. R. H. Knolle for his untiring efforts and to Rev. R. Heise for his words of condolence so beautifully expressed and to the friends who brought the floral offerings we desire to have you know we appreciate all you have done. In this our sorrowing hour, you have come to us, and we say again, "thank you." Mrs. E. Richers and Children.
