Peter Opp, one of the oldest and
best known citizens cf the Nehawka
community, answered death's sum
mons on Tuesday afternoon, Nov.
27th, at 2:15 o'clock.
Mr. Opp was born in Neiderhauser,
near Coblenz, Germany, on May 31,
1849. In 1866 he came to St. Louis
with an uncle, Jake Gruber, and his
family, the voyage taking thirty-one
days. In 1868 he came with his un
cle to Nebraska City, the trip by
boat, requiring twenty-one days. Lo
cating in what is now Union, he
broke prairie for others, using a team
of oxen.
In 1876 he married Barbara Mobr,
the wedding taking place at Dexter,
Iowa. The couple lived in Dexter for
about a year, and then came to Cass
county in 1877. A dug-out was their
first pioneer home.
In 1877, Mr. Opp bought the first
piece of land in the block where the
Opp meat market now stands. It was
then a field of cornstalks. He open
ed a meat market, the shop being
the first building in Nehawka. He
continued in the business until 1919
when he retired and his eon, John
Opp, took over the business.
Mr. and Mrs. Peter Opp were the
parents of seven children. One pass
ed away in his early youth, another
died at the age of thirty. Surviving
children are: Mrs. Claude Chapman,
Ashland, Nebr.; Herbert Opp, Lin
coln, Nebraska; Mrs. Walter Lloyd,
Omaha, Nebraska; and Mrs. Wm.
Black, Chicago, Illinois; John Opp,
Nehawka.
Mrs. Opp died on July 6, 1914.
After her death, Mr. Opp made his
home with his son, John and family,
where he has lived with the excep
tion of five years spent with a daugh
ter In Omaha.
For the past four years, Mr. Opp
had experienced failing health. He
died at the age of eighty-five years,
five months and twenty-seven days.
At the time cf his burial all his
children were present but his daugh
ter, Mrs. Wm. Black, of Chicago,
who was, because of poor health, un
able to be there. She had visited him
three weeks before his passing.
In addition to the sons and daugh
ters he leaves to mourn for him six
teen grandchildren, four great
grandchildren, many other relatives
and a host of friends.
The funeral services were held on
Thursday, November "29, at the Meth
odist church in Nehawka. Rev. W. A.
Taylor of Union, officiated. Mr. Opp
was a member of the German Evan
gelical church, having been confirm
ed in that faith when sixteen years
of age. "Grandsons acted as pall
bearers. A niece, Mrs. John Hansen,
accompanied on the piano by Mrs.
Herbert Kuntz, sang two beautiful
solos. Mr. Opp was ever a lover of
music and especially of sacred music.
Interment was made in the Mount
Pleasant cemetery of Nehawka. Out
of town relatives other than the im
mediate family who were present
were: Mr. and Mrs. Frank A. Boe
deker, of Council Bluffs, Iowa; Mr.
and Mrs. Henry Maseman, Mr. and
Mrs. John Nutzman, Rev. and Mrs.
J. M. Kokjers, Mrs. John Ruge, all
of Avoca, and all nieces and nephews
of the deceased.
With the passing of this aged man
Nehawka lose3 one more of the early
pioneers, one w ho was interested and
active in the upward growth of the
community. He was greatly Inter
ested in the Community Library re
cently erected in memory of the pio
neers who founded the town and
community, and was helpful In giv
ing authentic data to the committee
in charge. His meat market, as the
first building, was represented in the
dedication pageant.
Nehawka citizens lose a kindly
friend. One who met adversities un
complainingly, who retained a pleas
ant humor, who was always extend
ed a cheery word and helping hand.
His passing leaves an empty place
in the community as well as in his
family group.
