Funeral services for Henry C. Friesen, 77, long-time resident of the Buhler community, were held Saturday forenoon at the Buhler Mennonite Church, with Rev. Harold D. Thieszen officiating. Mr. Friesen died July 15 at a Haven nursing home after a long illness. He married Martha Voth at Buhler in 1923, and she survives with their two sons, Roland, a missionary to Japan under the Far Eastern Gospel Crusade, and Paul, missionary to Peru under the Mennonite Brethren Board of Missions and Services.
