The Belding Banner, Thursday, May 10, 1906

Joseph Rettersdorff, one of the sturdy pioneers of this section, died at his 
home in Keene township early Sunday morning, as a result of a stroke of 
paralysis which he suffered the Tuesday previous and from which he never 
regained consciousness up to the time of his death.  Mrs. Rettersdorff passed 
away last October and the loss was a severe blow to her husband, who so soon 
passed to meet her on the other side.

The funeral was held at St. Mary’s church in Miriam on Tuesday, his pastor, 
Rev. Fr. Zindler, saying the mass for the occasion, and his remains were laid 
to rest in the Catholic burial ground.

Several children, all grown to maturity, are left to mourn the loss of a kind 
and affectionate father. They are Anthony, Anna, John, Peter and Henry 
Rettersdoff and Mrs. Joe Blassen of Beal City and Mrs. John Reinhart of Keene.
