Mrs. John Veers Of New Holstein Is Called To Rest
New Holstein—Mrs. John Veers, 70, passed away at 6 p.m. Monday, after an 
illness of several weeks’ duration.  The funeral will be held at 2 p.m. 
Friday at the home of her son, Ernest Veers in the town of New Holstein. 
The Rev. A. G. Schmid of St. John’s Reformed church will officiate and 
interment will be in the New Holstein city cemetery.
Mrs. Veers was born in New Holstein on November 17, 1861, the daughter of 
Ferdinand and Anna Ree. On November 8, 1886, she was married to John Veers.  
The couple lived on a farm one and one-half miles west of New Holstein 
until 1916, when they disposed of the property to their son, Ernest. Since 
then Mr. and Mrs. Veers have resided on Randolph Street here.  In September, 
due to the ill health of Mrs. Veers, the couple returned to the farm home 
to reside with their son.  Mrs. Veers was affiliated with the New Holstein 
Ladies’ Aid society.  This group will attend the funeral in a body.
Those who survive Mrs. Veers are her husband; one son, Ernest; three grand-
children, Lloyd, Eugene and Robert Veers; one brother, Sigfried Ree of 
Milwaukee and one sister, Mrs. Frank McGarigle of Port Edwards.
