—Minister Sam L. Fricke, 45, of Cimarron died at 12:40 a.m. last Friday in the Bethesda Hospital in Goessel after many weeks of illness. An exceptionally large gathering of relatives and friends attended the funeral at the Lonetree church near Galva on Sunday forenoon. Immediately after the services the body was taken to Cimarron for another service with the congregation of which he was the minister. Burial also took place there. Rev. Fricke is survived by his wife and 11 children. A brother, John G. Fricke, who had come with this wife from Middleton, Mich., to attend the funeral, stopped in at the Review office for a short visit on Tuesday. Their aged father, the well known F. C. Fricke, died several months ago.
