Viewing Clyde C. Gruetzmacher (1903-1947).

Clyde C. Gruetzmacher (1903-1947).

After graduating in 1925 from the University of Minnesota Law School where he was on the staff of the Law Review, Clyde Gruetzmacher became an associate with the Kingman Cross law firm in Minneapolis. After about four years, he moved to Chicago and practiced in his own firm until 1938, when he returned to Minneapolis and resumed practice. He died on October 25, 1947, at age forty-four. In memorial proceedings for the Hennepin County Bar Association the following year, he was recalled:

"Mr. Gruetzmacher was known to his friends as a tremendously industrious and hard-working lawyer, with an exceptionally brilliant mind, which grasped legal problems readily. He specialized in trust, tax and corporate work, and had many and varied interests apart from the practice of law. He will long be remembered by his friends as a perfect gentleman, gracious, kind and considerate."
