His church will miss his presence and counsel. He was a close observer of man of good judgement, successful in business and prosperous, but did not forget his obligations to God or the great needs of the world. His life is a challenge to everyone that knows his promising what God can do with a man that will give him a chance. Funeral services were held from Kildare, Okla., Sunday at 1 o'clock.
