LOSE TWIN SONS
Leotas Ralph and Leonas Ronald, little twin sons of Mr. and Mrs. Howard Spencer, of near Purdy, were born August 27, 1922. Since then they have been the pride and joy of the home and have brightened many hours for their parents.
They seemed to be healthy little fellows and it was a shock to the entire community when they were taken sick a few days ago with pneumonia. The angel of death came and snatched Leotas Ralph away from loving arms Saturday evening, Dec. 2. Funeral service were held from the home of his grandparents at Tipperary Monday afternoon at 2 o'clock.
Later, the same evening, Monday, December 4, the angel re-appeared and carried away Leonas Ronald. On Tuesday afternoon at 1:30, funeral services were held at the grandparents home for him.
Miss Lucile Miller, pastor of the Christian church at Williamson, conducted both services, after which both little forms were laid to rest, side by side, in the Zion cemetery.
Those left to mourn the departure of these little ones are the father and mother, two brothers, Darold and Garold, and grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Sam Spencer, of Knoxville, and Mr. and Mrs. George Storm, of Tipperary, besides a host of other relatives and friends.
The sympathy of the entire community goes out to these grief-stricken ones in their double bereavement.
