Word was received Monday of this week that Martha (Mrs. Walter) Kriemelmeyer died Monday, April 6, in Chicago after suffering a stroke the previous week. She was 82.

The body was cremated and a memorial service will be held in Farnam at a later date. Funeral services and cremation were conducted in Chicago.

Mrs. Kriemelmeyer and her husband, Walter P., were long time residents of Farnam. She taught school in Farnam for several years while her husband was superintendent. They purchased a home in Farnam, but moved elsewhere for a while to teach. They moved back to their home in Farnam upon retirement.

The Kriemelmeyer's moved to Chicago last summer to be closer to their son John.

Survivors include her husband; son John, his wife and their two sons; and other relatives.
