Ronald Strean, son of Mr. and Mrs. Earl Strean of Campbellsport was instantly killed at 6:15 p.m. June 3, when he was struck by a car driven by Earl Manthei of Kewaskum. The youth was riding a bicycle on County trunk Y about a mile east of Campbellsport when the mishap occurred.
Ronald was born in the town of Auburn on September 29, 1938. He attended St. Matthew's parochial school in Campbellsport and received his eighth grade diploma from the school the past week.
He is survived by his parents, three brothers, Robert of Lomira, Royal and Reuben of Barton, his paternal grandmother, Mrs. Amanda Strean of this city, and his maternal grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Theodore Coenen of Little Chute, Wisconsin.
The remains were in state at the Twohig Funeral home, Campbellsport, and funeral services were conducted at St. Matthew's catholic church there at 8:30 Monday morning, June 16. The Rev. Peter Schwamb officiated and burial was in the parish cemetery."
No year or newspaper name written on the clipping.
UPDATE
I still don't know the newspaper my clipping is from, but I do know that the date he was killed was June 13, 1952 by this clipping. Half a dozen small blurbs like this were posted in Janesville, Sheboygan and even Green Bay.
I don't have Ronald or Earl Strean in my family tree, but I do have a dozen other Streans. I think it's time I find out where Ronald belongs.
