Hi Nancy, Thank you for offering to help. His name was Alfred H. Bretz, but I think I may have found him. I was sent a message earlier, with a Alfred H. Bretz, d. 3 Sept. 1932, and buried in Graceland Park Cemetery. It may be him; the dates I gave of 1947-1952 were only a estimate from his sisters obits. Of course the obits were written by the family, and they may have only gone on what they could recall. You may be able to help me by directing me as to where I go to see if there is an obit for him. From there I may be able to locate his elusive daughter. She married Michael Montag, and he died in 1931, so I'm sure she remarried; it's just a matter of finding out who. I had located an obit for Michael a while back, but for the life of me, I can't remember who I contacted for that. Da! My head must be clouded up from all this winter weather!
