Obit: with photo (poor copy on file) Florenz J Mansmann, aged 38,secretary and treasurer of Mansmann Bros. Co., died last week in the home of his parents, 135 Orchard Place, Knoxville. He was a member of theDuquesne council, Knights of Columbus, the Holy Name Society and St.Catherine's Catholic Church. He is survived by his widow, Elsa Wilhelm Mansmann: two children, Lois Ann Mansmann and Florenze J. Mansmann, Jr.: his parents, Max and Adelaide Freund Mansmann: four sisters, Mrs. C. J.Mayer, Sister M. Inmacula of the St. Francis Order, Miss Valetta and MissCyrilla Mansmann and three brothers, Raymond, Jerome, and Regis Mansmann. Mr. Mansmann has been a resident of Dormont for the past four years residing on Glenmore Avenue. To those who knew him, he was regarded as honest, upright, law abiding citizen and a credit to any community. His sunny smile and his cheerful disposition was an example for anyone to follow in spite of the fact that he had been ailing for some time. He was advised by his doctor some time ago to go away for his health and in company with his family and his mother-in-law he motored to Atlantic City where he remained a month. On his way back he was compelled to discontinue his journey by motor and come home by train. Immediately upon his arrival in Pittsburgh he was taken to the Saint Josephs Hospital in the South Side where he died. He was taken to the home of his parents from where the funeral was held. There was a steady stream of callers from Dormont to pay their last respects and in the passing of Mr Mansmann his many friends realized that Dormont had lost one of its prominent citizens. The Ledger extends to his family and his friends, a deep appreciation of their loss and consoles them with the fact "that as he lived, so he died, a credit to his community, his family and his friends."
