THE PLATTSMOUTH, NEBRASKA, SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL PAGE FOUR Ole Olsen Long Time Figure in Cass County (continued from page 1) home was "his castle", and his wife and family were his happi ness. Ole Olsen was born January 27, 1873 at Storehedings, Den mark, and came to America, to join his brother, Andrew Olsen, at Weeping Water. He often re--iewed the past, and told how he worked at odd jobs, for small pay, while he was learning the English language, and then he entered the emplov of Frank Wolcott, father of Lloyd P. Wol cott, and remained in their home for four years, after which he owned and operated a grocery store. He was married to Miss Emma Rasmussen, of Omaha, in 1903, and soon after his marriage, he became interested in the stone business, and the older he grew the more he felt -the importance of that industry for his com munity. His pay roll grew as the years advanced, and he had sev eral men who had been with him in the business for many years. He was their friend as well as their employer. He had two daughters. Mrs. Robert Gessing, and Mrs. Charles Marth, of Chicago, and three grandchildren, who were his pride and joy. Funeral services were held Tuesday afternoon. October 25. 1948 at the Congregational church, of which he was a trus tee, with Rev. John C. Pryor, of the Congregational church, in charge of the service. Victor Wal lick sang two numbers. "My Jesus As Thou Wilt", and "Cross ing the Bar", accompanied by Sterling Marshall at the pipe organ. Mr. Marshall also played , several numbers preceding the service. Pall bearers were Fred Reh meier, A. J. Bender. Fred Allen, Frank J. Domingo. G. R. Binger. Ray Norris, Leslie Wiles and Llovd Ranney Interment was in Oakwood Cemetery, and Hobson's funeral home was in charge of jill arrangements. The altar of he church was banked with flowers, bearing mute testimony of the esteem in which the de reased was held in the commun ity. There was an undercurrent of ?adness in the thought that his brother, Peter Olsen, is in Den mark on a frip and could not be present at his funeral. His broth er, Andrew Olsen passed away several years ago. He leaves a brother and sister in Denmark.
