Funeral services will be held at 2:00 p.m. Friday at Trinity Lutheran Church with Rev. Moldenhauer officiating. Burial will be in the Greenwood Cemetery.

Mr. Rossow was born July 29, 1885 in the town of Beaver and was married to Clara Salzwedel on March 31, 1909, at Loyal.

He spent several years in North Dakota before his marriage, and after his marriage the couple lived there for six months, after which they returned to Wisconsin. At that time they moved to a farm a mile and a half from Greenwood. They lived there for two years and then came to a farm three miles north of Loyal. In 1920 they moved to the city of Loyal, where he did mason work until his retirement ten years ago. He was a member of Trinity Lutheran Church.

Mr. Rossow is survived by his wife, one son, Romaine of Loyal, two grandchildren and one brother, Charles Rossow of Granton.

He was preceded in death by a son Orville, who died at the age of 13 months in 1911, three brothers and a sister.
