Don't forget the dance Saturday night at the Legion Home. Lose Residents A number of Wonder Lake residents have died within recent weeks, many of them of the early pioneering families. (New people are reminded that a pioneer in Wonder Lake goes back only some twelve to fifteen years.) TT. e latest resident to die was Orville Tronsen, Sr., a long £ime resident of Deep Spring: Woods subdivision. Mr. Tronseft and his family have been well known at Wonder Lake for many years. His wife, Una, now employed in Woodstock, his daughter, Orva, a senior at McHenry high school, his son, Orville Tronsen, Jr., and his grandchildren survive. Mr. Tronsen died of a heart attack at the Presbyterian hospital in Chicago last Saturday night He 'had suffered a heart attack about eight years «go but fcaid recovered enough from •that to return to his work. Mr. Tronsen was manager and buyer in the music department at (the Fair store for thirty years. This department was operated by the Western Book Stationary company. After his illness, he traveled for the Carl Fisher Music publishers. Another recent death was Mrs. Bertha Lehmann, who made her (home with her son in Hickory Falls. Mrs. Lehmann was 93 . years old. Still another recent death was that of Henry Moder, who died last Thursday at the home of Ihis son, Henry, Jr. Mr. Moder is surviveldl by another son, a daughter and six grandchildren. Moves From Lake The Rev. and Mrs. Frank W. -Anderson -will move this week from Wonder Lake, and they will be sorely missed. Pastor Anderson has -been just as much of a pioneer in his field as (have been some of the men who broke ground with their own hands and built their homes. Eight years ago the Ander. ijons came to the Gospel Center anld under their ministration it became a church. Pastor Anderson "retired" into this pioneering effort. He had just completed thirty-three years as a pastor in Uhe Summerdale Evangelical Free church of Chicago. With vigor he went to work in the new little pastorate, built it to a .point where the congregation almost pushed him and his wife right out of the little home they shared with the dhiurch. Last week, Linn Loshbaugh, chairman of the church board, issued a statement that started like this, "The Wonder Lake Gospel church has found it necessary to very reluctantly accept the .resignation of Pastor Anderson . . ." The statement went on to say that Pastor Anldierson was suffering from an eye condition •tlhat requires surgery, that his vision is failing, and that major surgery on the eyes will be performed June 2. The Andersons will live at 216 W. Evergreen street, Wheaton, and the operation will be performed at Woodlawn hospital in Chicago. Pastor Anderson was bom in Sweden 76 years ago. He came to this country when he was 20 years of age and received his training for the ministry at Trinity college in Cihcago. His first charge was in Joiliet, 111., the second in Nebraska. His third was at the Summerdale churcf.ii, where he gave a ithirkJ of a century to "his work. As he retires now, the only minister of his age in his denomination holding a pastorate, he rounds out a full half century of service to his church. When asked for information for this story, he modestly said, "Don't make it -too flowery, now." There are those who would ask could it be too flowery for a man of ftis achievements. Asked about the future, he talked courageously of the time after the operation. "I want to work again," he said. And we know that he will -- with or v9ithout sight. Remember the Dead "Remember the deaidi, and help the disabled," will be the silent prayer of every woman selling poppies Friday at the crossroads of every part of Wonder Lake.
