3203	Following information found on http://www.findagrave.com: "Birth: Apr. 25, 1867 Death: Mar. 24, 1918 Jonas Abraham HASLER, son of Peter and Elizabeth HASLER, was born April 25, 1867, died March 24, 1918, age fifty-years and eleven months. He was the youngest of a family of fourteen children. Early in life his parents brought him to the Lord in holy baptism. He was engaged in farming and lived on his farm until in the spring of 1892, when he and his mother and sister moved to Bloomfield and with his two brothers, Peter and James, engaged in the hardware business under the firm name of HASLER Bros. In this profession he was continually engaged until his death. He was of a jovial disposition and had a host of friends who will sadly miss him, and the community and business world has lost one of its most honored, upright and fair dealing citizens. His father, having died when he was but a small boy, he assumed the duties of the farm and home, always caring for and looking after the comfort and welfare of his mother, who died at the age of eighty-six years. No son could have been more kind and loving to a mother than was he. He always attended to the business interests of brother and sisters, who intrusted all to his care, knowing his honest and careful manner of doing business. He was united in marriage to Miss Sophia SCHILT of Richland county, Ill., October 9, 1906. To this union two children were born, Paul Albert, who died in infancy, and ____rl Schilt HASLER, who with his devoted mother, survives him. Besides these he leaves five sisters and three brothers, namely Mrs. Margret WAGNER of Olney, Ill; Mrs. Emeline K______, of West Liberty, Ill., Mrs. Amanda LESTER, Peter HASLER and Samuel HASLER of Taylor township, James HASLER, Miss Sarah HASLER and Mrs. Lutetia GROVE, of Bloomfield, and many nieces and nephews and devoted friends who will mourn his untimely departure.

3204	Following is a letter that was written to his parents by a soldier that was with him in the Philippines. Dear Mrs. Murphy, I really don't know just how to really begin yet I've got to write and let you know just how I feel and the rest of the fellows in the platoon feel too. This is the first chance I've had to write or I'd have done it much sooner. Mrs. I know how you feel about Donald's death and I want you to know we all feel pretty bad ourselves, not nearly as bad as you though, but I thought maybe this letter might help just a little if you knew just a little more about everything. I'll begin at the start. My name is Fred Heitzinger. I'm the same age as Don. I came from a little town in Pennsylvania. Ever since Don and I joined the company he and I were the best of pals. I don't know if he ever mentioned anything about me, but I still thought the world of him. We both were in the same squad from start to finish and come through some pretty tough spots in the New Guinea invasion. I really never got to know Don until we were settled and shared the same hut together and became darn good pals. A lot of nights we'd talk about home, our loved ones and everything in general. Don used to call me City Slicker and I'd call him a Plow Jockey. It was all in fun just something to argue about. We became attached to each other like brothers, at least that's the way I looked at it. Well at last the orders come down we were hitting the P. I.'s. We knew it was going to be the toughest fighting we'd ever had, but everyone was ready for it. We knew there would be a lot of us that wouldn't come out of it alive and there was but not one of those men died in vain. We are fighting for our country and you people back home whom we love so dear. I'm sure that there is not a fellow here today that wouldn't gladly give his life so the things he loved would be untouched. Our division has gotten a very good name for itself. I guess it was because we went through the hardest fighting in the P. I.'s and Don was in the thick of it. All like the rest of us, we'd been under fire for about ten days and nights together. The eleventh day we were ordered to take this hill which is known as "break neck Hill". The Japs were making their last stand and did quite a good job of it. Not one lived to get off. Well, we advanced under very heavy fire. Just at the bottom is where Don got hit. He was an important man because he was armed with a BAR, the one weapon the Japs hate the worse, so Don drew a lot of fire and was finally hit. I was right in back of him and seen it all. It came fast and he didn't know a thing about it. Thank God for that. Mrs. Murphy, you can be the proudest mother, if it were not for Don our whole squad of twelve men would have gotten it. He gave us fire while we advanced. We owe a great deal to him and are darn proud he was one of us. You had a great son Mrs. Murphy. He died a hero in the eyes of God and all of us. One thing Don had the best burial ceremony that could be had. Pastor Yufond gave grace. Mrs. Murphy, as you can see I'm not much good at this but I wanted you to know. Would you please show this or tell Sarah just what took place. I'm sure Don would want it that way. Enclosed is some snapshots we took in New Guinea. They aren't very good but I thought you'd like them. I've sent home for large sizes and will send them also as soon as I receive them. Will close now. I hope this helped just a little.

3239	Frances lived at Rinard near Cisne, Wayne County, Illinois and later in Clay City, Clay County, Illinois after George died. She was stricken with a series of strokes in her older age and was a patient at Burgin Manor in Olney, Richland County, Illinois at the time of her death. Funeral services were held at the DeSelms Funeral Home in Cisne, Wayne County, Illinois. Services were conducted by Elder E.L. Brooks. Residence before 1955: Cisne, Wayne County, Illinois Residence after 1955: Clay City, Clay County, Illinois Memories of Carl Gray, 30 Aug 2000, "Granny Bricker was old the first time I saw her. She smoked a corncob pipe and chewed Beechnut tobacco that she would spit in the ash pan that sat in front of the old wood burning stove in the living roomom. She had long light yellow and white hair that she wore in a bun at the top of her head.After all these years, I can still taste her (Francis') chicken and dumplings. We would visit her often on Sundays and that was normally the Sunday meal. I can still visualize the old yellow, two story farm house where she used to live in Rinard when we were kids. It had a large garden, honey bee hives down by the creek which was north of the house, chickens, guinea fowl, pigs, and cows. Easter lilies, tiger lilies, lilac bushes, and collared greens. She churned her own butter and sold eggs for income. She would often have a quilting frame set up in the living room where she would hand make quilts. It would take up most of the living room. As small kids, we would play under it and I would pretend it was a fort. She had old large wooden framed pictures of family members and an old wooden crank telephone on the wall. A couple of her daughters lived in St. Louis. My (Carl W. Gray) previous research indicated that she died on June 9, 1968. According to her obituary, however, this is the date that she entered the hospital. Also, according to her obituary, her funeral was conducted on June 20, 1968 (Thursday) and that she died on the previous Monday. Since it would have been unusual to keep her body for 11 days, I conclude that she must have died on June 17, 1968.	Frock, Frances Katherine (I980)

"Birth: Apr. 25, 1867
Death: Mar. 24, 1918

Jonas Abraham HASLER, son of Peter and Elizabeth HASLER, was born April 25, 1867, died March 24, 1918, age fifty-years and eleven months. He was the youngest of a family of fourteen children. Early in life his parents brought him to the Lord in holy baptism. He was engaged in farming and lived on his farm until in the spring of 1892, when he and his mother and sister moved to Bloomfield and with his two brothers, Peter and James, engaged in the hardware business under the firm name of HASLER Bros. In this profession he was continually engaged until his death. He was of a jovial disposition and had a host of friends who will sadly miss him, and the community and business world has lost one of its most honored, upright and fair dealing citizens. His father, having died when he was but a small boy, he assumed the duties of the farm and home, always caring for and looking after the comfort and welfare of his mother, who died at the age of eighty-six years. No son could have been more kind and loving to a mother than was he. He always attended to the business interests of brother and sisters, who intrusted all to his care, knowing his honest and careful manner of doing business. He was united in marriage to Miss Sophia SCHILT of Richland county, Ill., October 9, 1906. To this union two children were born, Paul Albert, who died in infancy, and ____rl Schilt HASLER, who with his devoted mother, survives him. Besides these he leaves five sisters and three brothers, namely Mrs. Margret WAGNER of Olney, Ill; Mrs. Emeline K______, of West Liberty, Ill., Mrs. Amanda LESTER, Peter HASLER and Samuel HASLER of Taylor township, James HASLER, Miss Sarah HASLER and Mrs. Lutetia GROVE, of Bloomfield, and many nieces and nephews and devoted friends who will mourn his untimely departure.

Following is a letter that was written to his parents by a soldier that was with him in the Philippines.

Dear Mrs. Murphy,

I really don't know just how to really begin yet I've got to write and let you know just how I feel and the rest of the fellows in the platoon feel too. This is the first chance I've had to write or I'd have done it much sooner. Mrs. I know how you feel about Donald's death and I want you to know we all feel pretty bad ourselves, not nearly as bad as you though, but I thought maybe this letter might help just a little if you knew just a little more about everything. I'll begin at the start.

My name is Fred Heitzinger. I'm the same age as Don. I came from a little town in Pennsylvania. Ever since Don and I joined the company he and I were the best of pals. I don't know if he ever mentioned anything about me, but I still thought the world of him. We both were in the same squad from start to finish and come through some pretty tough spots in the New Guinea invasion. I really never got to know Don until we were settled and shared the same hut together and became darn good pals.

A lot of nights we'd talk about home, our loved ones and everything in general. Don used to call me City Slicker and I'd call him a Plow Jockey. It was all in fun just something to argue about. We became attached to each other like brothers, at least that's the way I looked at it.

Well at last the orders come down we were hitting the P. I.'s. We knew it was going to be the toughest fighting we'd ever had, but everyone was ready for it. We knew there would be a lot of us that wouldn't come out of it alive and there was but not one of those men died in vain. We are fighting for our country and you people back home whom we love so dear. I'm sure that there is not a fellow here today that wouldn't gladly give his life so the things he loved would be untouched. Our division has gotten a very good name for itself. I guess it was because we went through the hardest fighting in the P. I.'s and Don was in the thick of it. All like the rest of us, we'd been under fire for about ten days and nights together. The eleventh day we were ordered to take this hill which is known as "break neck Hill". The Japs were making their last stand and did quite a good job of it. Not one lived to get off.

Well, we advanced under very heavy fire. Just at the bottom is where Don got hit. He was an important man because he was armed with a BAR, the one weapon the Japs hate the worse, so Don drew a lot of fire and was finally hit. I was right in back of him and seen it all. It came fast and he didn't know a thing about it. Thank God for that.

Mrs. Murphy, you can be the proudest mother, if it were not for Don our whole squad of twelve men would have gotten it. He gave us fire while we advanced. We owe a great deal to him and are darn proud he was one of us. You had a great son Mrs. Murphy. He died a hero in the eyes of God and all of us.

One thing Don had the best burial ceremony that could be had. Pastor Yufond gave grace. Mrs. Murphy, as you can see I'm not much good at this but I wanted you to know.

Would you please show this or tell Sarah just what took place. I'm sure Don would want it that way.

Enclosed is some snapshots we took in New Guinea. They aren't very good but I thought you'd like them. I've sent home for large sizes and will send them also as soon as I receive them. Will close now. I hope this helped just a little.

On behalf of the squad,
Yours,
Fred Heitzinger

For many years Bill and Jeanne lived in Mattoon where Bill was employed as a carpenter for the Reasor Corporation. He later accepted a position with The Illinois Consolidated Telephone Company in Charleston, which he held until his retirement in 1986.

Bill was an active and faithful member of First General Baptist Church in Mattoon for many years - serving as a Deacon for more than thirty of those years. He later transferred his membership to the First Baptist Church in Charleston where he continued to faithfully serve the Lord.

Bill was an avid fisherman and extremely talented and skillful in the art of woodworking. When he could no longer enjoy these hobbies due to his declining health, Bill learned to quilt - making quilts for others including 104 lap quilts which were generously given to nursing home residents, disabled veterans and the homebound.

Bill's kind and generous heart and deep respect for others created many long-lasting friendships. His family remained his first priority and his devotion and love for them provided a wonderful husband and father; and a grandfather and great-grandfather, who delighted in spending time with his grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

"Birth: Aug. 27, 1822
Death: May 11, 1907

Although she had been in a feeble condition for many months the announcement of the sudden death of Mrs. Elizabeth HASLER last Saturday afternoon came as a surprise to the community. She was one of the pioneer citizens of Greene county and commanded the highest respect of all who formed her acquaintance. Her maiden name was STUCKIE and she was born at Aarmuhlen, Switzerland, August 27, 1822; died at Bloomfield, May 11, 1907; Aged eighty-four years, eight months and fourteen days. At the age of eleven she, with her parents, three brothers and three sisters came to America and settled in Ohio. There they resided for some time. Their next move was to Richland county, Illinois. In 1845 she was united in marriage to Peter HASLER and they moved to this county, which continued to be her home till death, a period of more than sixty years. To this union were born fourteen children, ten of whomfour sons and six daughtersare still living while three sons and one daughter prereceded their mother in death. Upwards of twenty-seven years ago, her husband passed away. On the first day of September, 1822, she received the ordinance of baptism and when still quite young she united with the German Evangelical church, and tto the end of her life remained a steadfast and devoted Christian. Her last illness was long and painful but she bore it with patience, her faith in the Master being such that she believed all things work out for good to them that love the Lord." She is survived by ten children, thirty-three grand children and fourteen great grand children, besides a host of other relatives and friends. The funeral services were held from the residence on South Franklin street Monday morning at 9:30, conducted by the Rev. W. H. WYLIE, and the remains were taken to Taylor township and laid to rest in the German cemetery.

Memories of Carl Gray, 30 Aug 2000, "Granny Bricker was old the first time I saw her. She smoked a corncob pipe and chewed Beechnut tobacco that she would spit in the ash pan that sat in front of the old wood burning stove in the living roomom. She had long light yellow and white hair that she wore in a bun at the top of her head.After all these years, I can still taste her (Francis') chicken and dumplings. We would visit her often on Sundays and that was normally the Sunday meal. I can still visualize the old yellow, two story farm house where she used to live in Rinard when we were kids. It had a large garden, honey bee hives down by the creek which was north of the house, chickens, guinea fowl, pigs, and cows. Easter lilies, tiger lilies, lilac bushes, and collared greens. She churned her own butter and sold eggs for income. She would often have a quilting frame set up in the living room where she would hand make quilts. It would take up most of the living room. As small kids, we would play under it and I would pretend it was a fort. She had old large wooden framed pictures of family members and an old wooden crank telephone on the wall.

A couple of her daughters lived in St. Louis.

My (Carl W. Gray) previous research indicated that she died on June 9, 1968. According to her obituary, however, this is the date that she entered the hospital. Also, according to her obituary, her funeral was conducted on June 20, 1968 (Thursday) and that she died on the previous Monday. Since it would have been unusual to keep her body for 11 days, I conclude that she must have died on June 17, 1968.
