Obituary - Phillip Henry Bergquist

The Hooper Sentinel 
October 30, 1941

Services Held For P. H. Bergquist

Swaburg - Funeral services for Phillip H. Bergquist, who passed
away at his home in Fremont Thursday afternoon following a
paralytic stroke suffered Wednesday night, were held from the
Wollmer & Warne mortuary at Hooper Sunday afternoon with the formal
service at the Elim Lutheran church at Swaburg.  Dr. Alfred O.
Frank, pastor of the Salem Lutheran church at Fremont, was the
officiating clergyman.  Mrs. Marvin Norberg presided at the organ
and accompanied the church male quartet, composed of Martin Olson,
John and Garfield Monson and Harry G. Andersen in two song
selections and also Mr. Andersen in the requested hymn, "Under His
Wing."

There was a profuse offering of flowers and a memorial gift to the
Bethpage Mission at Axtell, Nebr., from the Elim Lutheran Ladies
Aid society.  Included among the very large attendance were nearly
a hundred relatives and friends from Omaha, Auburn, Oakland, Lyons,
Fremont, Scribner and Hooper.

The remains were interred in the family lot in the Elim cemetery.
The pallbearers were Ed F. Olson, Dr. Chris W. Johnson and Jess
Landholm of Fremont, Albert Soderling of Uehling and John
Frederikson and George Egbers of Swaburg.

Philip Henry Bergquist, son of Mr. and Mrs. Charles W. Bergquist,
prominent pioneer settlers of the Swaburg neighborhood, was born in
Swaburg on January 1, 1879, and passed away at Fremont on October
23, 1941, at the age of 62 years, 9 months and 22 days.

When a small boy his parents moved to Oakland and he completed his
education in the public schools there.  Later they returned to the
farm in Swaburg and on December 22, 1906, he was united in marriage
to Miss Amelia Uehling of Hooper.  They resided in Swaburg and in
the Hooper vicinity and then moved to Santa Ana Calif., where they
were engaged in the grocery business.  They returned to the home
farm in Swaburg about 23 years ago, and except for a number of
years' residence in Uehling, where he operated a produce store,
this community was their home until two years ago when due to
failing health, they retired and moved to Fremont to make their
home.

Always interested in the welfare of his community, Mr. Bergquist
identified himself as a citizen of the highest character.  He held
membership in the Elim Lutheran church at Swaburg and for several
years served the Swaburg school district as director of the school
board. Possessed of an outstandingly friendly personality, he made
for himself many lasting friendships and enjoyed a wide
acquaintance throughout this territory.

Remaining to mourn the passing of this devoted husband and loving
father is the wife and only child, the daughter, Phyllis Louise,
Mrs. Edwin C. Moeller of Portland, Oregon. Surviving him also is
one granddaughter, Patricia Ann Moeller, and four sisters, Mrs.
Jennie Gustavson of Omaha, Mrs. Arden Hanson of Oakland, and Mrs.
J. F. Briggs and Miss Esther Bergquist of Fremont, and aged uncle,
Charles E. Ohlson, of Oakland, and a number of nieces and nephews. 
Mrs. Moeller and little daughter arrived Saturday evening from
Portland.

On January 15, 1902, he was united in marriage to Miss Lenora Weigle, who survives him, and who, with the four sons and six daughters born to this union, are now cast in the darkness of bereavement in the loss of a dutiful and devoted husband and father, and who have the deep heartfelt sympathy of this community.

0174 Uehling, Mildred ****************************************************************** Obituary - Francis Uehling The Hooper Sentinel May 29, 1924 Mangled Body of Young Man Found West of Hooper This place was thrown into considerable excitement yesterday morning when news was spread about, that the mangled body of a man had been found along the railroad track one half mile west of town. The gruesome discovery was made by Miss Frieda Windhusen and sister, who were coming from home to attend school, who immediately notified agent C. C. Cushman. As the body was in terribly mangled condition identification would have been impossible but for a pass book found nearby. This bore the name of the late August J. Uehling of Crowell, and a former Hooper resident. With the discovery of this book it was soon learned that a son Francis, had been in this community the past couple of weeks and had on Tuesday started to work at the brickyard. Further identification then proved that the body was that of this young man. How and when the accident happened is unknown, but it is presumed that it happened sometime after 10 o'clock Tuesday night as that was the last seen of him after making inquiries at the depot about trains and at that time it was evident he was endeavoring to go to his home at Crowell. The remains were gathered up and brought to Bucholz Bros. undertaking parlors to await the arrival of the Mother; Gus Weigle having gone to Crowell for her. On her arrival here at noon, arrangements were made for burial that afternoon in the Hooper Cemetery beside the body of the father who died last year. Services were conducted by Rev. Duhrkop of Zions Lutheran Church. The sudden and shocking death of this young man who was but 17 years of age, comes as a hard blow to the family, as since the death of the father he had been a great help in contributing to the maintenance of the family. He was born in this vicinity and began his school life in our public schools. He was generally well liked by all who knew him as a friend and was an industrious boy. He was survived by his mother, three brothers and six sisters, who have the deep sympathy of the entire community in their sorrowful affliction.
