Funeral services for Henry
Louis Zuehlke, 72, of Clifton,
were held Monday, Aug. 18,
1986, at 10 a m. at Trinity
Lutheran Church in Clifton,

Interment was in Trinity
Cemetery in Clifton. Mr.
Zuehlke died suddenly on Satur-
day, Aug. 16, while enjoying a
family gathering at the home of
his daughter, Beatrice Guinn.
Henry Zuehlke was born in
the Bismark Community of
Bosque County near Valley
Mills on May 19, 1914, the se-
cond son of Otto and Freida
(Thiele) Zuehlke. He was bap-
tized on July 5, 1914, and con-
firmed on March 24, 1929. Both
his baptism and confirmation
were held at Zion Evangelical
Church at Womack. Mr.
Zuehlke was the grandson of
August and Marie Zuehlke who
settled in that area in the 1880s.
On Oct. 23, 1898, Zuehlke
married Clara Hampe in St.
Paul Lutheran Church in the
Pleasant Hill Community. Four
children were born to this mar-
riage. Alvin Charles, Lawrence
David, Beatrice Fem, and Helen
Fay. In the early years of their
marriage, Henry and Clara
farmed in the communities of
Garnersville, Fairview, and
Cayote. In 1953 Henry began
his career away from the farm
as a farm machinery mechanic.
In 1957 the family moved into
the home in Clifton where he
resided up to the time of his
death. During his career,
Zuehlke was employed at Evans
Implement, Stevens Implement,
and the John Deere Company.
He retired in 1976. During his
entire lifetime Zuehlke enjoyed
working with his hands and was
gifted with an ability to under-
stand how things worked. He
was an avid fisherman and hun-
ter, and especially enjoyed
spending time with his family
telling humerous stories.
Zuehlke has been a member of
the Zion Evangelical Church,
