  OBITUARY New Lisbon, Wisconsin "Times" June 16, 1923: "EMPLOYEE DEAD ANOTHER CHAPTER OF FAITHFUL SERVICE CLOSED WITH PASSING OF GARDNER B. KEENEY Gardner B. Keeney, veteran railway employee on the Wisconsin Valley Division of the C.M. & St.P. Railroad, passed away Tuesday morning at his home in this city. Death was caused from ulcers of the stomach, followed by other complications. Though his illness covered a period of five years, Mr. Keeney was a patient sufferer and bore his illness bravely. Mr. Keeney was born at Gold Hill, Pennsylvania, July 25, 1854. When but a small child he moved with his parents to Edgerton, Wisconsin, where he spent his boyhood days. Later he came to Tomah, where he began his career as a railroad employee on the Wisconsin Valley Division. Here he was united in marriage to Julia O. Riley and when the main passenger division point of the "Valley" was transferred to New Lisbon, they changed their residence to this city. Unto this union seven children were born, all of whom survive, viz: Harry of Portland Oregon; William of Portage; Arthur, Edna and Mrs. Mary Arntz of Milwaukee; Mrs. Mabel Schulstad of Minneapolis, Minnesota; and Mrs. Fannie Sommers of Detroit, Michigan. The mother passed away about thirty-three years ago. A few years afterward, on July 7, 1895, Miss Jennie Mouritsen was united in marriage to Mr. Keeney and to this union six children were born, five of whom with the mother survive him, viz: Gardner Jr. of Wausau; Asahel of Milwaukee; and Lucretia, Genevieve and Caroline of this city. Mr. Keeney was an ever faithful employe of the C.M. & St.P. Ry for forty-four years, having been engaged as both freight and passenger brakeman. Up to the time of his illness and for many years previous he was employed in the latter capacity. Brakeman Keeney was always very courteous to the travelling public and through his long years of service became widely known and respected by all who came in contact with him. He was a good husband and father and true friend. Funeral services will be held from the home today (Thursday) at 2:00 o'clock. Rev. M.R.Philpott of the First M. E. Church will officiate. Burial will be in the New Lisbon Cemetery. All of the children with the excepton of Harry of Portland Oregon, will be present at the obsequies." Son of Schuyler Fassett Keeney
