H. D. KOEPCKE DIES IN OMAHA
Henry D. Koepcke, a former resident of Calhoun, passed away last week at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Harry Smith of Omaha. Mr. and Mrs. Koepcke moved to Omaha about three years ago, and his wife died shortly afterwards.
At the time of his death he was eighty two years of age. Several nieces and nephews survive him.
Note: No burial records were found at Forest Lawn as recorded in the Vig Files at the Danish American Archives. The spelling in the newspaper article seems to be incorrect as census records record the name as Koepke and his wife's name as Louisa and Louise.
