The sudden and unexpected death of Mrs. George Boockmeier of New Holstein at the
home of her daughter, Mrs. Arthur C. Jensen on Sunday morning was a sad shock to
relatives and friends in this county as she was apparently enjoying good health.
Mrs. Boockmeier was found dead in bed on Sunday morning by her son-in-law, Arthur
C. Jensen, who entered the bedroom through the window when she failed to reply
to his call to arouse her. Mrs. Boockmeier arrived here on Saturday evening from
New Holstein to spend Sunday with her daughter. She appeared to be in her usual
good health and retired about 11:30 p.m. In the morning Mr. and Mrs. Jensen had
breakfast at 7:00 o'clock and at 8:30 a.m. when Mrs. Boockmeier failed to appear
Mrs. Jensen went up to her room to call her. She was unable to get any response
and fearing something was amiss she summoned her husband, who entered the room
through a window. Mrs. Boockmeier had passed away, death being attributed to
heart failure. Life was extinct about an hour when the body was found.
Mrs. George Boockmeier, nee Margaret Sell, was a daughter of the late Mr. and
Mrs. Hans Sell of the town of New Holstein. She was born in that town on August
23, 1868, and grew to young womanhood on her parents farm. On May 3, 1888 she
was united in marriage to George Boockmeier and they resided on a farm in the
town of New Holstein for several years after marriage, leaving the farm about
thirty-five years ago to take up residence in New Holstein where Mr. Boockmeier
became interested in conducting a grain buying business. Mr. Boockmeier passed
away in January, 1920.
Four children blessed their union, two of whom are living, Mrs. A.C. Jensen of
this city and Everett Boockmeier of New Holstein. A son, Elmer, and daughter,
Miss Vera, preceded their mother in death. The deceased is also survived by 
four brothers, Henry Sell of Chilton, John and Frank Sell of Sheboygan and 
Walter Sell of Fond du Lac, and one sister, Miss Louise Sell of New Holstein.
Mrs. Boockmeier was an excellent woman, home loving, neighborly and generous
hearted. Her passing, in the fullness of life has saddened not only her family
and relatives but innumerable friends who knew her intimately.
The funeral was held Wednesday afternoon from the home at New Holstein with
interment in the New Holstein cemetery, Rev. F.P. Keicher of this city
officiating.
