The Schrader Ambulance

The Plymouth Mail ,  January 12, 1956 I noticed last week that the Schrader Ambulance seemingly took a lot of patients to local hospitals and, since I'm often researching it, Eloise in particular. It made me wonder if they were also the funeral home people and sure enough they were. Which I confirmed through Myrilla Schrader's obituary from 2014. As one of the family owners of the funeral home her job, among other things, was driving the ambulance. In fact, during WWII when her husband Bud was serving overseas her and a sister-in-law took over the entire operation for nearly two years. The Plymouth Mail, October 18, 1946
