      Joseph C. Bucheit, 71, life-long resident of St. Marys, died at approximately 12:30 this morning in the Millard Fillmore Hospital, Buffalo, where he had been admitted as a surgical patient three weeks ago.

      He is survived by his wife, the former Mary Lanzel, and the following children: Beatrice, Mrs. Fred Bhrem, Buffalo; Helen, Mrs. Clarence Ellison, Port Allegany; Mrs. Fairl Singer, Genevieve, Mrs. S. J. Cancilla, Miss Silda Buchheit and Norman Buchheit of St. Marys.

      Other survivors are five sisters and three brothers; Mrs. Mary Meyer, Mrs. Josephine Cotter, Mrs. Julia Renwick, St. Marys; Gertrude, Mrs. Harry Walker, Kane; Hilda, Mrs. Ambrose Wortman, Buffalo; Frank and Charles Bucheit, St. Marys; William Bucheit, Mt. Jewett, and eight grandchildren.

      Deceased was a member of St. Joseph Society, P. F. L. and Eagles.

      The body can be viewed at the family home after 10 o'clock Saturday morning.

      Requiem mass will be celebrated in St. Marys church Monday at 10:00 a.m. Burial will be made in St. Mary's cemetery.
