?b?Obituary from the St. Charles Chronicle, October 2, 1908:?/b?
Richard Heinz manager of the Cut Glass Factory died after a four days illness resulting from hemorrhage of the lungs, passing away early Tuesday morning. Although but 29 years of age Mr. Heinz was business manager of the firm of Heinz Bros. which has a cut glass factory doing work "which competes with the best factories in America or Europe for superiority of workmanship". Mr. Heinz was taken Friday with a severe hemorrhage and was much weakened but rallied. Succeeding attacks left him too much exhausted to recover.
With two brothers, Otto and Emil, he has been here in business about four years, coming out from Chicago where they had a factory.
The funeral was held at his boarding place with the family of H. Smith near the factory, and the remains were laid to rest at Concordia cemetery near Chicago. Surviving him besides the two brothers Mrs. Gusta H. Heinz. The funeral service was said by Rev. Meisler, a German Lutheran minister of Batavia.

Richard Heinz made many friends since coming to St. Charles, and was highly esteemed in both business and social relations, and his untimely death is deeply deplored.
