per his death certificate, he was a single man
The Miller County Autogram-Sentinel, 22 May 1913
Our dear son, William Warner Burks, passed away last Saturday at 8:15 A.M. He was born near Brumley, Mo., Oct. 12, 1888 age 24 years 7 months and 4 days.
He was baptised by his father at Eugene, Mo., in 1904. He was a dear, affectionate son and a tender, loving brother. He was the joy of our hearts, the pride of our lives and the hope of our old age.
For four months he was sick in Okla. and Kansas City without allowing us to know of his condition least he should cause us trouble or expense. Though he wrote home at least once a week he was careful to conceal the fact that he was sick. As soon as our house was burnt in January he came home and tried o hep us rebuild. But he was too weak to work.
After he was confined to his room he drew all the plans for the new house and now our greatest hoy will be to do everything as he suggested.
Out of a family of ten children, five are gone to rest. The parents, two sisters and three brothers look with broken hearts and anxious souls to a reunion that cannot be dissolved and a communion that cannot be disturbed by sickness, sorrow, pain or death. --S. O. Burks
