Memorial Report

The memorial for Carl Illwitzer on Saturday was well attended, and we had two full North Shore cars of passengers for the last trip.  Dan Buck was the officiant, Zach was the motorman, Harold the trainmaster, and so on.


Later, in the diner there were some displays of various pictures over the years and a few relics.




In the absence of any immediate family, Dave Diamond gave a moving tribute to Carl's devotion to duty for both the township and the Museum, and others spoke also.  He will certainly be missed.
