Lawrence H. Schramm, 91, who served as mayor of Chicago Heights

A native of rural Chicago Heights, Mr. Schramm held several
posts in city government including city treasurer, city clerk, city
commissioner, and president and member of the Chicago Heights Park

"He was a distinguished gentleman who was dedicated to the
city," Chicago Heights Mayor Angelo Ciambrone said.
Mr. Schramm also worked with his son William Schramm at Schramm
Sports Shop.
