Sedidy, Martin (15 APR 1883 - 1 MAY 1959)

At 2:00 o’clock Monday afternoon funeral services were held for Martin Sedidy, a retired railway worker who had been a resident of Owen (Clark Co., Wis.) for the past several years.  He passed away at 5:00 a.m. Friday, May 1, 1959, at the Clark County Hospital where he had been a resident since the previous Wednesday.  Prior to that he had made his home at the Fremont Hotel since moving to Owen from a farm he once owned in the Town of Hoard.

The Rev. James Stone officiated at the final rites and burial was made at Riverside Cemetery.  Pallbearers were Joe Felician, Charles Rahn, Paul Andrus, Julius Andrus, Joe Karabawer and Frank Jensen.

Martin Sedidy was born April 15, 1883, in Austria and came to this country as a young man, and immediately found employment with the rapidly expanding railway industry.  He stayed with the firm until he earned his retirement.

He is survived by a son, Paul of Chicago, Ill., and two grandchildren.
