    Obituary

    HENRY BEEGER
    Redwood City Democrat
    Thursday, Feb 24, 1898
    One of the largest funerals in the history of Redwood City.
    Henry Beeger, the affectionate, attentive husband, the kind indulgent father, the loyal friend, the enterprising public spirited citizen, the generous warm hearted man and the conscientious, painstaking official, is no more. All that was mortal of this good and justly popular man was laid beneath the sod of Union Cemetery on Sunday last, the large funeral cortege attesting the high esteem in which he was held by his fellow men. The ceremonies were under the auspices of the Masonic fraternity, deceased having been an honored member of the local lodge. He was also a member of the Redmen and Chosen Friends, as well as a former chief of the Fire Department. All of these societies turned out to the funeral in large numbers. Another silent but eloquently impressive evidence of the strong hold deceased had upon the hearts of his neighbors was the wealth of floral offerings bestowed as tribute to his worth. Among the beautiful pieces were following: A Beautiful pillow and arch of elaborate design by employees of deceased. Column of violets, G.Plump. Horseshoe, Mr. & Mrs. LP. Degan. Large bouquet, Wm. Frank. Large standing piece, star at top, no card. Pillow Comrade Farewell, Frank Granger,J.A. Genochio, Claude Fox. Large column and star, J. Gunning. Column of violets, Mr. and Mrs. A. Hilson. Wreath, Harvey, Lee and J. Ross. Violets, school children. Bouquet Easter lilies, Mr. & Mrs. Ci. Hynding. Bouquet a friend. Bouquet of violets, Mr. & Mrs. J.N. Winter. Bouquet of lilies, JJI. Gedge. Anchor, Mr. Minzemier. San Mateo B of L Asan. Anchor, Mr. & Mrs A. Bahler. Bouquet of violets, sixth grade grammar school pupils. Our ex-chief R.C. Fire dept. Sickle, Mr. & Mrs. C. Wahi. Wreath, Wrn. Sicken. Violets, Clair Murray. Pillow, Mrs. J. Iloss. Carnations, Mrs. J. Hartley. Wreath, Mr. & Mrs. Walton. Stank of violets, N. Graves. Sickle and wreath, Hose Co No 3. Large pillow, Frank Tanning Co. Large wreath of violets, Emma Dumaraz. Violets, Mr. & Mrs Einstein. Mr. Fulton, violets. James and Julia Coffey bouquet. Hazelwood Farm violets. Wreath, Chas Wagner. Bouquet of pinks, Mr. & Mrs. J. Mansfield, and others of which cards of donors were missing.
    Rev. O.M. Hester, pastor of the Methodist Church, conducted the religious services at the house. The pall bearers were G. Plump and George Rice of town trustees, George Botsch, George Lovic, Fireman, Samuel Christianson, Henry Offerman, Redmen, Robert Brown P. Chamberlain, Masons, Jas Hilton, H. H. Hurd, Chosen friends.
    Deceased was a native of Germany aged 49 years and 8 months. He had resided in Redwood City since 1880 and by close attention to business combined with knowledge, experience and skill. He made the product of Beeger's Tannery famous throughout the country for its recognized merit.
    The news of the death of Henry Beeger, which occurred at Paraiso Springs on Thursday evening, was a shock to the entire community. His sudden taking away was generally regarded as a public bereavement. Death was due to pulmonary hemorrhage. By his side was his devoted wife whose attention had been constant and unceasing. The casket was a magnificent one and the placid features of the dead had a natural and life-like appearance which did credit to the skill of the embalmer.
    As chief of the Redwood City fire dept., as school trustee and as town trustee, he was conservative and zealous. His probity of character and his scrupulous honor were so generally known that Henry Beeger's word was always regarded as good as his bond. In his death this community has suffered an irreparable loss.
    To his sorrow stricken wife and family consisting of two sons and four daughters, the entire community joins us in offering a full measure of heartfelt condolence.

                  Obituary

                  Son of Willis and Elizabeth Beeson
                  -- From the 1937 headstone survey --
                  (Not sure if these were on 1 monument or individual monuments..)
                  Albert M. Beeson 1864-1887
                  Ida Luella Beeson 1882-1888
                  NOTE: Albert M. Beeson is recorded as dying at age 3.
                  So the 1864 is probably 1884
