The Wadena Pioneer Journal, May 5, 1960
William F. Marquardt, 67, died suddenly early Wednesday morning, the immediate cause of death being a coronary although he had been failing health for quite some time.
Tentative funeral has been set for Saturday, May 7, at Immanuel Lutheran church at 2:00, confirmation of which awaits the return of Rev. Olaf Cartford, now out of town. Interment will be in the family plot here.
William Marquardt was born May 24, 1893, to Mr. and Mrs. Franz Marquardt in Wadena, and lived his entire life here, started learning the butcher trade almost as soon as he was able to wield a knife. He was united in marriage with Olga Olson March 7, 1917 in Leaf River township, and to this union were born two surviving children: Capt. George Marquardt, of the State Highway Patrol, and Mrs. Daniel Foshay, both of Wadena. Their mother passed away about six years ago. Mrs. Elmer Cossen, Potlatch, Idaho, a sister, also survives.
“Bill”, as he was more familiarly known, began his life’s work as an apprentice butcher in the shop of F.R. Stedman, continued under Godfrey Koch and on into Koch’s market until his retirement several years ago. He rated as a master craftsman.
