Manitowoc Daily Herald, Thursday, May 29, 1902, Page ******** From Der Nord Westen, 29 May 1902: Death Mon. of 76-yr. old Christoph Stadler, a well-known resident of our city. He came to Manitowoc County from Germany in 1853 and settled in Neshoto where he remained until a few years ago when he moved to Manitowoc. Just a few years ago he and his wife celebrated their Golden Wedding Anniversary. Mr. Stadler, who suffered from stomach cancer, leaves a sorrowing widow and 8 children. His funeral was held yesterday morning at the Catholic Cemetery. ******** HAPPY WEDDED LIFE Fifty Years Enjoyed By Mr. And Mrs. Christian Stadler, Who Today Celebrate OLD RESIDENTS OF COUNTY Came Here In 1858 And Have Since Resided At Two Rivers, Neshoto, And in This City - A Day of Pleasant Memories In era of sordid commercialism, of marriages of convenience, of betrothals for filthy lucre, of engagements for ulterior gain, to witness a love that has been constant for fifty years and at that time clasps the beloved to the bosom with the same, yes, with increased fervor as of yore, that grasps the hand with same, though strengthened grip as of then and that looks into the eyes with warmth and trustiness, is indeed refreshing and an event of more than passing note. In these times of diurnal divorce it does one's heart good to see an old couple standing together, ready and willing to undergo the trials and tribulations of life, to act as prop and help meet to each other, to be the ever watchful companion through the journey. Such a love has blessed Mr. and Mrs. Christopher Stadler who at their home, 1135 South Seventh Street, are today celebrating the golden wedding anniversary of their marriage. The observance of the anniversary is in the nature of a family reunion and at which children, grand children and great grand children are present; and the home is indeed a happy one. At 8 o'clock Solemn High Mass was celebrated at St. Boniface church by Rev. Father Pell and many friends of the bride and groom were present. After the service, the home was thrown open to friends and neighbors and joyous pleasure reigns supreme. Mr. and Mrs. Stadler receiving their guests with welcome greeting that testifies a love of association and friendship. Fifty years ago at a little hamlet in Saxony, Germany, a country lad and a blushing comely lass stood before the minister of God and exchanged the solemn vows that united their destinies and made them man and wife. Today, at the gathering as they look upon the four generations assembled, their thoughts must revert back to the time of half a century ago when they started in life together. Then they were rich only in each other's love - a love whose flame burns brighter to-day at the close of fifty years of wedded life, than on the eventful day when they faced the world without money, but with good health, and now they have reached the evening of life with a comfortable competency and can look forward to the enjoyments of comfort and peace in the remaining years of life. Mr. and Mrs. Stadler have been residents of Manitowoc county forty five years. Leaving their native land in 1856, they came to America and Wisconsin settling at Two Rivers, where they continued to reside a number of years and then removed to Neshota. Thirteen years ago they took up their home in this city, where they have since remained. Mr. Stadler has been actively engaged in business since coming here, as a mason contractor and possesses a wide acquaintance in the city being held in high esteem by all who know him. He is 75 years of age while his wife has reached 72, yet to know them as they greet friends today one would scarcely believe this true. Time has dealt kindly with them and youthful spirits and happy companionship hide the age. They are the parents of eight children all of who are at the home to assist in the celebrations taking place. Twenty-one grand children, many of whom are also in attendance gladden the hearts of the couple. The children are Peter and Charles Stadler, Mrs. John S. Voight, Mrs. J. E. Voight, Mrs. Anna Silversack, Chicago; Mrs. Andrew Fay, Two Rivers; Mrs. Rudolph Goetzier, and Nicholas Stadler of this city. Among other relatives who are here to assist in the ceremonies are Henry Stadler and wife, Kossuth; Mrs. Rudolph Bishop, Mrs. J. Meyer, Two Rivers. The festivities will continue this evening and many friends will wish the recipients of the day's honor, all happiness and continued years of enjoyment.

FRANTISEK STANGEL cemetery #66 ? A BRIGHT LIFE Death’s Cruel Visitation Terminates Promising Career of Frank Stangel WELL KNOWN YOUNG MAN DEAD Was Student in Closing Year at Chicago Dental College— Attended School Here—Body Brought Home Today Death which came to Frank Stangel, a Manitowoc county boy in Chicago Saturday cut short a promising career and brought to a close the bright life whose possibilities were just becoming apparent. Deceased was 22 years of age and was in the closing years of a course at the Chicago Dental College, from which institution he was to have graduated in June. He was ill but a few days, suffering an attack of typhoid fever and not until Friday was his condition considered serious or alarming. Relatives here were notified and Saturday morning his father departed for Chicago, arriving only to find that his son had passed away an hour previous. Frank Stangel was a son of Mr. and Mrs. Wenzel Stangel, of Tisch Mills and had spent his entire life in this county. He attended school in the city and was later employed in a clerical position by the Chas. Salak Co. Two years ago he became a student in dentistry at the Milwaukee Medical College and this year had taken up his work at the Chicago college and expected to complete the course in June. He was 22 years of age and was possessed of a high mind, of studious character and had made rapid progress. Energetic and ambitious, his success was certain and his untimely death is indeed sad. The body was brought here today and will be taken to Tisch Mills for burial tomorrow. Manitowoc Daily Herald, Monday, December 15, 1902, Page 1 ********* From Der Nord Westen, 18 Dec. 1902: (From the correspondent in Mishicott, 16 Dec.)

JACOB J. STANGEL cemetery #44 JACOB STANGEL, HEAD OF STANGEL CO. IS KILLED IN FALL WALKS INTO OPEN ELEVATOR SHAFT AT NOON AND FALLS FIFTEEN FEET TO HIS DEATH Rushed To Hospital But Never Regaians Consciousness-City Shocked By The News Jacob J. Stangel, one of the city's leading business men, died at the Holy Family hospital shortly before 2 o'clock this afternoon as a result of injuries received in a fall down the elevator shaft at his store at noon, and the entire city is shocked by the news. The accident which cost the life of Mr. Stangel was not witnessed by anyone and his unconscious form, bruised and bleeding, was found in the basement pit of the elevator by one of the men. He was rushed to the hospital, where he was immediately placed upon the operating table but died without regaining consciousness. Gate Had Failed to Work A few minutes before Mr. Stangel was found lying on the basement floor he had been about on the first floor of the store. It is presumed he walked into the open elevator shaft from the iron room which is at the rear of the salesroom. The elevator had been stopped at the second floor and it is thought that one of the gates, the one guarding the entrance from the iron room, failed to operate. The light in the rear room is poor and it is believed that Mr. Stangel walked into the open shaft when he failed to note that the elevator was not in place. The distance of the fall is about fifteen feet, but Mr. Stangel was a big man, weighing close to 275 pounds, and his plunge to the cement floor of the basement caused injungements and a more detailed account of Mr. Stangel's life and activities will be given tomorrow. Manitowoc Herald News, Tuesday, April 18, 1922 P.1 ********* Jacob Stangel-An Appreciation Modest, unassuming, big hearted Jacob Stangel, has passed to his reward. The places that have known his cheery smile, his kindly ministrations, will be void and a community will miss him as it misses few men. It is a difficult task to pay tribute to a man of Jacob Stangel's type. He falls into a class of men of which history is replete, of those who, in their lifetime, form an even balance of the virtures and who require their absence to furnish the perspective that brings into relief their moral and intellectual stature. Phraseology fails us in paying tribute to this man. Ordinary adjectives seem stilted. We knew him as a big business man, as a lover of home, of family, of his neighbor. In his daily business life his gift for detail was nothing short of phenomenal. He made decisions instantly with almost unerring judgment. He assumed responsibility from all directions. In a field of larger opportunity his qualities might have carried him to any limit. He had courage, initiative and a positive genius for sustained effort. The big business which he built in a few years stands as a memorial to the place which he occupied in the business world. We have not yet been able to realize that he has gone. How many of us there are who, in our daily life, come within just one step of eternity. We pause before we take it. And this is what brings to us in Jacob Stangel's untimely death a realization of the uncertainty of earthly existence. The communtiy stands shocked at the horror of the tragedy. It cannot yet sense the striking down of a grand fellow in his prime. He was gentle and unaffected, frank, sincere, dependable. His life, simply the natural flow of Christian integrity, led one to think of Pasteur's Breton peasant, so peaceful it seemed. Jacob Stangel left no duty, domestic, religious or civic, undone; no call from charity was left unanswered; no trust repose in him violated; not pretense of things he was not; no bigotry; not hatred; no deceit. Here was surely a full, successful life, incomplete only in its duration- sadly incomplete there. The city has lost on of its biggest men-how big not all really know. His going "leaves a lonesome place against the sky." Manitowoc Herald News, Wednesday, April 19, 1922 P.2 ********* ENTIRE CITY MOURNS DEATH OF J.J. STANGEL Was city Booster Of Extraordinary Type-Funeral Friday The city today had not yet recovered from the shock caused by the news of the death of Jacob J. Stangel as a result of an accident yesterday noon. Mr. Stangel lived less than an hour after the accident occurred at the store and died at the hospital without regaining consciousness. His skull had been fractured by the fall. First reports were that Mr. Stangel had walked into the open elevator shaft when one of the safety gates failed to operate but this version of the accident has been corrected. Mr. Stangel had returned from his noonday meal at home and had been talking to a traveling salesman to whom he had given an order for goods. The order had been signed when Mr. Stangel appeared suddenly to think of something else which he might want. He asked the salesman to wait for a moment and started for the rear of the store. WAS IT A PREMONITION? That some calamity impended, that some tragedy seemed to permeate the atmosphere, was felt by members of the store family all during the forenoon. Several of the clerks and the office force were so depressed by the mysterious something that they went about their work absent- mindedly. When the accident occurred they felt it was premonition. A private office is being built over the store office and the work was almost completed, the work of laying the linoleum floor having been planned for yesterday. Mr. Stangel stopped to talk to Sam Nimmer about this work and while he was talking to the man, lifted the guard gate to the elevator shaft. Without looking to see whether the elevator was in place he stepped into the opening and plunged to his death on the concrete floor in the basement Paralyzes The Force The suddennnes of the whole thing paralyzed the whole force of men for a few moments and then assistance was rushed to the stricken man, the ambulance summoned and he was hurried to the hospital but he was beyond human aid and died at 1:45. Jacob J. Stangel was born at Tisch (continued onpage 8) ENTIRE CITY MOURNS DEATH OF J.J. STANGEL (Continued From Page 1.) Mills July 22, 1869 and would have been fifty-three years old on his next birthday anniversary. He received his early education in the rural schools of the county and later went to the University of Wisconsin where he completed a short course in agriculture, specializing in dairying and cheesemaking. He returned to Tisch Mills and for a time was employed by his brother as cheesemaker. For a year he acted as instructor in work in various factories in this and Kewaunee county and for another year he served as a buyer. June 15, 1896 he was married to Mary Krcma and shortly after the wedding the couple moved to Thorpe, Wis., where Mr. Stangel was manager of the store and other interest of the Nye, Lusk & Hudson company for more than four years. He resigned the position to come to this city where he accepted a position with the Rand & Roemer Hardware company, acting in several capacities, including that of traveling salesman. In 1891 he was made the manager. Member of North Side Firm Later with Messrs. Worel and Zeman the company was taken over under the name of Worel, Zeman, Stangel company. Zeman retired and for a number of years the company was known as the Worel, Stangel co. In 1917 Mr. Stangel withdrew from the company to engage in the wholesale and retail hardware business for himself and erected the large new store at the corner of Eighth and Quay streets. Mr. Stangel has held the controlling interest in the big company and it was through his untiring effort, his great capacity for detail and his business intuitiveness that the company has grown to be one of the largest business houses in this section of the state, employing a traveling sales force and enjoying a enviable reputation for square dealing and promptness. Mr. Stangel was a member of the local council Knights of Columbus and was also a fourth degree man, he was a member of the Catholic Knights of Wisconsin, Catholic Knights of Wisconsin, Catholic Foresters, Elks, Rotary and United Commercial Travelers. In addition he was a member of the board of directors of the National bank, a member fo the Manitowoc Boy Scout Council, President of the Manitowoc Association of Commerce and a member of the executive committee of the national Wholesale and Retail Hardware Men's Association. Active In Civic Affairs He was active in all the interests with which he was identified and was a home town booster every hour of the twenty-four of the day. Aggressive, his judgment was keen and unerring but he was nevertheless kindly and big hearted, a fact which more than one family in this city can bear testimony to. He was a great booster for the Holy Family hospital and in his quiet way has probably done more for that institution than any other individual in the city. Mr. Stangel is survived by his widow, two sons, Arthur and Harvey and one daughter, Viola. Miss Stangel, who attends the University of Wisconsin, had been home for the Easter vacation and had expected to return to Madison yesterday afternoon. She had left her father just a few minutes before the accident happened and had gone to the North Western depot with her cousin, Milton Stangel, who was also returning to his studies at Madison. The latter got on the train without becoming aware of his uncle's injury but was reached later by telegram aboard the train and returned to the city last night. Besides the widow and children six brothers, Prof. Charles G., of this city, John of Forth Worth, Texas; Frank of Oklahoma City, Joseph, Wenzel and George, of Tisch Mills and one sister, Mrs. Mary Riha, Town of Carlton, also survive. Funeral On Friday The funeral will be held at 9 o'clock Friday morning with solemn high mass, service at Sacred Heart church. The Knights of Columbus will be in charge and burial will be at Evergreen. Manitowoc Herald Times, Wednesday, April 19, 1922 P.1 ********* LAST SAD RITES FOR JACOB STANGEL ARE PERFORMED AT SACRED HEART CHURCH TODAY Under a wealth of flowers that breathed a fragrance of last fond remembrance, all that was earthly of the late Jacob J. Stangel was today lowered to its last resting place at Evergreen. Never in the history of Manitowoc has such an outpouring of citizens attended a funeral. Never was there occasioned such widespread sorrow. That the deceased was respected by all was attested by the hundreds and hundreds that visited the grief stricken (photo) home in the last three days where the form of this best beloved citizen reposed in state. The church auditorium today was inadequate to seat the assmeblage. Automobile parties from a radius of forty miles attended, and practically all the residents of the village of Tisch Mills, where the family is well known, came to pay a last tribute. Solemn Requiem Mass Solemn requiem mass was sung at Scared Heart Catholic church at 10 o'clock, Rev. W.J. Luby, pastor of the church, officiating as celebrant; Rev. Vandrachek of Francis Creek as deacon, Rev. Scheidhauer as subdeacon, Rev. Shimek of Tisch Mills as master of ceremonies and Rev. Decker of Reedsville as thurifer, and Rev. T.J. O'Leary, of Green Bay, Rev. Belle of Mishicot and Rev. Malkowski in the sanctuary. "In the Midst of Life We Are in Death" and We Know Not the Hour," was the text of a beautiful short eulogy paid to the departed by Father Luby, who called to mind the personal attributes of the deceased as a basis of his popularity and who drew a lesson from his Christian fortitude to drive home the necessity for being prepared at any time to meet one's Maker. K.C. in Charge The Rotary club, Knights of Columbus, Elks and other organizations both civic and religious, with which the deceased was affiliated attended in bodies. Honorary pall bearers were: Rotarians Frank Hoffman, Arch P. Rankin and S.D. Eckel; Elks, F.C. Schultz, John Kellner and Charles Bouril.
