Neidert, 67, mourning his death, which occurred late on Wednesday evening, May 4, at his home in Johnsburg. Death came following an extended illness which had often caused hospitalization in' recent years. He had returned only a few weeks ago from Sacred Heart sanitarium, where he had been confined the greater part of the winter. Fr. Neidert, a native of Philadelphia, Pa., was ordained a priest on June 6, 1914, by Bishop Hickey at Rochester, New York. He became assistant pastor of St. Mary's church at Rockford, where he remained for two years before being transferred to St. Joseph's church at Free port, also as assistant. The Freeport appointment lasted for five years, until he was transferred to Annunciation church, Aurora, as pastor. After twelve years of service in that parish, he was appointed to St. John's church, Johnsburg, in November of 1938, where he took the pastorate left vacant by- the death of Fr. A. J. Vollman. The only close survivors are a niece and nephew, Mr. and Mrs. Walter Guyn, of Philadelphia, Pa., who had been with Fr. Neidert since his condition became critical week ago.
