Prominent Lady is Claimed by Death
Mrs. Annie Teltschik, widow of the late David Teltschik, for many years a prominent and popular resident of the Oakland section, passed away at the home of her son, Mr. Herman Teltschik, last Sunday afternoon at 1 o'clock, after an illness of only one week. The funeral took place Monday afternoon at the Weimar Odd Fellows Cemetery, Rev. Paul Piepenbrok of Schulenburg officiating in the presence of a vast throng of mourning relatives and friends.
The pall bearers were her grandsons Emil, Morris, Alfred, Alphonse, Ervin and Leo Teltschik. Honorary pall bearers designated by the family were as follows: M. J. Mucala, Henry Nitschmann, Sr., Joe Till, Joe Seifert, Chas. Hurta, Chas. Hollein, Otto Leppin, J. D. Mayes, Fritz Gold, J. O. Boettcher, H. J. C. Hoehn, Henry J. Laas, D. Schroeder, Chas. Blaschke and Fritz Wendt.
Mrs. Teltscik, nee Miss Annie Hickel, was born in Moravia, Austria, July 12, 1847. She was united in marriage to Mr. David Teltschik Aug. 16, 1869. The couple emigrated to this country, via Galveston in 1885, first settling near Schulenburg, afterward moving to the Oakland section. Eleven Children blesses this union, three of whom died in infancy. The living children are as follows: Mrs. Louise Butschek of Nordheim, Mr. Rudolph Teltschik of Strawn, Mrs. John Burns of Sabinal, Mr. Henry Teltschik of Marshall, Messrs. Ernest, Gustave, Herman and Willie Teltschik of this section. Two adopted children are also among the survivors of this excellent lady --Mrs. Leslie Taylor of Weimar and Mr. Raymond Teltschik of El Campo. There are thirty-five grandchildren and twenty-two great-grandchildren. Her husband, the late David Teltschik, preceded her in death some nine years ago. At time of death Mrs. Teltschik was 87 years and 6 months old.
As a wife, mother, neighbor and friend, Mrs. Teltschik had but few equals. Throughout her long life she was regarded by all with the highest respect and esteem. Up to a few years ago she was an active woman, doing her share of the chores about the place and ever willing to render any and every assistance possible to neighbors, friends and those about her. Although the mother of a large family of her own, she and her good husband some years ago adopted two other children and raised them to maturity. All of these turned out to be exceptionally good citizens, an honor to the community in which they lived. Mrs. Teltschik's death has caused anguish to pervade the hearts of a large circle of friends throughout this community, who realize they have lost a very dear friend.
May the good Father above comfort her bereaved ones is the sincere wish of this paper.
