Memorial to the Honorable Frank J. Krall of Johnson County
MR. SPEAKER: Your committee, appointed to prepare a suitable resolution commemorating the life, character and public service of the late Honorable Frank J. Krall, begs leave to submit the following memorial:
Frank J. Krall was born August 5, 1884, in Johnson county, and spent his entire life there. He was educated in the schools of Johnson county, and taught in the rural schools for four years.
His principal occupation was farming, and he retired in March, 1946. He had served as township clerk, township assessor, Farm Bureau board director, and was a member of the board of supervisors for eight years.
He was elected to the House of Representatives and served as Representative from Johnson county in the Fifty-second and Fifty-second Extra sessions of the General Assembly of Iowa.
He was an active member of the Knights of Columbus, Loyal Order of Moose and the St. Wenceslaus Catholic Church.
He was united in marriage in 1910 to Mae Hotka, and his wife, together with seven children, mourns his passing on August 11, 1948, after an extended illness.
Therefore, Be It Resolved by the House of Representatives of the Fifty-third General Assembly of Iowa: That in the passing of the Honorable Frank J. Krall the people, not only of Johnson county, but of the entire state of Iowa, have sustained a great loss.
Be It Further Resolved: That a copy of this resolution be spread upon the Journal of the House and that the Chief Clerk be instructed to send an enrolled copy to the family of the deceased.
