W.J. Helget
Dies at Home in
Ohiowa, Nebr.
Was Resident of Plattsmouth From
1923 to 1931 and Employee of
Burlington Railroad.
The following from the Ohiowa
Advertiser, tells of the death of W.
T. Helget, a resident of Plattsmouth
for some eight years and whom many
of the old time friends will recall:
The sudden death of V. T. Helget
Saturday, April 30, was almost un
believable to citizens of Ohiowa.
Mr. Helget was not of robust
health. He was operating an Ohiowa
filling station. February 12, 192S,
he was compelled to withdraw from
business and later went, to a Lincoln
hospital for observation. The morn
ing of his death Mr. Helget expect
ed to again take up his duties.
He arose early Saturday morning,
taking breakfast with his wife for
the first time since this last confine
ment. He helped his wife with the
breakfast dishes, then went outside
to carry some kindling to the base
ment. He spoke of a pain in his
abdomen that morning. That had
been one of his chief ailments.
Going to the house his wife admin
istered to his needs. He relaxed in
an armchair in the dining room and
was working a puzzle, while Mrs.
Helget stepped out in the garden a
few moments. Coming to the house
she discovered his body slouched in
the chair. Medical service was sum
moned but it was too late. He died
at 7:30 a. m.
Mr. Helget submitted to three
operations during his later life. His
last visit to the hospital this year
showed another operation would be
useless. That he might not live long
was known, but his sudden passing
was unexpected.
The deceased was a man or jovial
nature and friendly, despite his poor
health.
Wenzel Thomas Helget was born
June 2S. 1ST2. He died April 30.
193S, at 7:30 a. m. He was a na
tive of Germany. As a child of eight
he came with his parents to Alexan
dria. Neb. He lived in Alexandria
and the community thereabouts un
til 1923. when he moved to Platts
mouth, where he resided until 1931.
He was an employee of the Burling
ton railroad during the time he re
sided at Plattsmouth. Mr. Helget
returned to Ohiowa in 1931 and since
that time has lived here, being en
gaged in the gasoline and oil busi
ness. The deceased was married to Mae
Dibble April 24, 1901. at Alexandria,
Neb. To this union there was born
one child, a son. Ronald. He also
leaves to mourn his death two sis
ters and two brothers. Mr. Helget
was a kindly man. He was baptized
in the Catholic faith.
Funeral service were held Mon
day, May 2, 193S, at his residence in
Ohiowa. Interment was in the St.
Mary's cemetery at Alexandria.
