Memories of Louis Stagge by his granddaughter Margo Stagge Loftus

Contributed By MargoLoftust · 12 May 2016  

 

When Louis was two years old, his mother died, and he went to live with relatives. He lived with his sister Millie for awhile. When he was about 10 years old, he started to make his own living. As a teenager he worked for the Thornley family, herding sheep in Morgan, Utah. He went to Uintah and Layton schools. 

On July 20, 1917, he enlisted in the 5th regiment of the Marine Corp and served during WW1. He went to Mare Island, California and then to Quantico, Virginia. He then went to Belgium and France. When the Armistice was signed, he went to Germany and served in the Army of Occupation. On August 1, 1919, he got an honorable discharge and came home. In 1926 he went to Minneapolis to work for three months. His father died while he was there. (This info was written by Ralph Stagge in 1938 as part of a genealogy class.) 

Louis worked for Sperry Mills (on 30th below Wall Avenue) for several years making flour. While working there he broke his leg. Then he opened Ogden Weber Auto Salvage on Lincoln Ave. (He was partners with Mark Parker and Gene Jones.) Then he bought them out and had the business until 1942. He built a shop there and would sell old and new car parts. He had lots of wrecked cars there. Many people never paid him, so he sold the business to Shorty and went to work for Swifts - cutting up meat. In 1944 he went to work for the railroad as a car inspector and retired from there in 1960. 

He and grandma lived on Wall Avenue, and he raised pigs and chickens. Sometime after 1946, they moved into a home at 3052 Jefferson in Ogden that they had been building for a few years. They had made the plans for the house and did some of the work, with Delbert helping also. They also built a garage at the back of the house. 

He didn't have time for a lot of hobbies, but liked to go deer hunting and fishing at Pine View. After grandma died, he never went fishing again. 

I remember grandpa as always laughing and teasing. He would dance around the back yard at family gatherings. He loved to watch wrestling matches and women's roller derby on TV. After grandma died, his personality changed - he wasn't as happy, was more serious. He also started going to church after grandma died. He died of emphysema in a rest home on February 20, 1969.

Granddaughter Margo Stagge (Loftus)’s Memories
(Ralph Stagge’s daughter)
The thing that I remember most about grandpa is that he was always laughing and teasing us. Teasing everyone. We would go to their house every Sunday afternoon, and the first thing he would do is ask me if I had any boyfriends yet. Then he would laugh and laugh. I don’t remember any other conversations with him. On Sunday’s when we went there he would always be watching TV – either the wrestling matches or the women’s roller derby. We would sit and watch those the whole time we were there. I don’t remember him as being serious – just always laughing and teasing. I remember that he smoked. I also remember when we would have family reunions there – he would always pretend to be dancing in the yard and would laugh and laugh.

When grandma died on September 12, 1966, his personality seemed to change. He wasn’t as happy and was more serious. He would always have the door locked when we would come to visit. He started to go to church also after she died. He died in a rest home of emphysema on February 20, 1969.

Granddaughter JoAnn Stagge (Miller)’s Memories
(Marvin Stagge’s daughter)
Every summer we would go to Utah and visit Grandma and Grandpa Stagge. He loved to tease and would tickle my brother Gary until he would be crying (not sad, just from laughing so hard). Once when they came to visit us in California, he told Gary and me that he would buy us each a half gallon of ice cream if we could eat it at one sitting. I think Gary was able to eat his, but I got sick and had to quit.

Whenever we visited in the summers, he would take us to the grocery store and treat us to some goodies.

I do remember that he worked for the railroad for most of his life. After Grandma died and when he became ill from the emphysema, my mother and father moved from California to live with him and take care of him.

Fifth Regiment U S Marines

Fifth Marie Regiment Insignia

History
World War I
The unit was activated on June 8, 1917, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, as the 5th Regiment of Marines. They immediately deployed to France and were assigned to the 1st Infantry Division of the United States Army. Later that year, in October, they were reassigned to 4th Brigade of Marines under the 2nd Infantry Division.

In spring the regiment was involved in the fierce battle of Belleau Wood, gaining the respect even of the hardened German veteran front troops.

The Fifth subsequently participated in the offensive campaigns at Aisne, Battle of Saint-Mihiel and in the Meuse-Argonne offensive. They also participated in the defensive campaigns at Toulon-Troyon, Château-Thierry, Marbache and Limey. From 1918 until 1919 the regiment participated in the occupation of the German Rhineland. In August 1919 they relocated back to Marine Corps Base Quantico, Virginia. They were deactivated on August 13, 1919.

The regiment's actions in France earned them the right to wear the Fourragère aux couleurs de la Croix de Guerre 1914-1918 (seen in the outline of the unit's logo),

one of only two in the Marine Corps (the other being the 6th Marine Regiment). The award was a result of being the only regiments in the American Expeditionary Force to receive three Croix de guerre citations: two in the order of the army and one in the order of the corps — Fourragère and Croix de guerre with two Palms and Gilt Star. The Fourragère became part of the uniform of the unit, and all members of the organization are authorized to wear the decoration on the left shoulder of the uniform as long as they remain members of the organization.

Gasoline Explosion May Cost His Life
ELKO, March 1—When he attempted to pour gasoline into a lighted gasoline stove, Ernest Stagge, employee of the Southern Pacific railroad company at Carlin, today suffered burns so serious that physicians believe they will prove fatal. The stove exploded, spreading the flaming liquid over his clothing.

He immediately dashed out of the house and into the breeze, which fanned the flames to a greater intensity. Neighbors finally stopped him and extinguished the flames. He was rushed to Elko for treatment. His house in Carlin was partly burned.
Nevada State Journal, March 2, 1926

Lighting Fire With Gasoline Proves Fatal to Ernest J. Stagge. Special to the Tribune
March 4— The body of Ernest J. Stagge, 33, who died at the general hospital in Elko, Nevada, Monday afternoon as the result of burns, was brought to Kaysville today for funeral services and interment.

The services will be held at the Kaysville ward tabernacle Saturday afternoon at 1 o'clock and interment will be in the Kaysville cemetery. From reports received from Nevada, Stagge had been working for the city of Carlin, but failed to go to work Monday morning. About noon he began to prepare luncheon for himself and his pal. As the fire in the stove was difficult to start, he picked up a five-gallon can of gasoline and began pouring it into the stove. The can exploded, knocking him down and setting his clothing on fire. He jumped up and ran out of the house and continued for several hundred yards before he fell. He was removed to the hospital and died five hours later.

Mr. Stagge was the son of Mr. and Mrs. William Stagge and was born at South Weber September 5, 1952, and had resided in Kaysville practically all of his life. He served overseas in the world war and saw service in the Argonne, and Marne battles.

Besides his father, he was survived by one sister and two brothers, Mrs. Willard Sandall of Kaysville, William Stagge of Blackfoot, Idaho, and Lewis Stagge of Ogden.
