Willie Sinow and Pete Siem left this week to take up their training to become soldiers for Uncle Sam.

Funeral rites are scheduled for Wednesday, January 15, at Zion Lutheran Church in Omaha, with burial at Westlawn-Hillcrest Memorial Park, Omaha, Nebraska.

Son of Emil and Wilhelmie (Gottsch) Sinow, he was born in Aspinwall, Iowa, on November 13, 1893.

Mr. Sinow's wife, Margaret (Wentzel) Miller-Sinow died two years ago. He has one step-daughter.

Relatives in this area include a sister, Mrs. John Derner, Manning, and a brother, Herbert Sinow of Gray.

I'm occasionally adding the actual scanned image of the obituary I make using my VERY expensive - large commercial scanner, and/or also other articles about the deceased person that were published in the Manning Monitor.
I want to also comment about people who are taking my obituaries, pictures, and/or other articles about a person/family and posting them on other websites.
You do NOT have permission or the right to do this - you are stealing my historical work.
Buy your own scanning equipment, pay for memberships to other commercial websites, and spend decades working on your local history like I have - then you'll understand why I'm making these comments!
Thank you for your attention to this matter - Dave Kusel
