Lee Archer Wyckoff, son of Louis and Mary Wyckoff, was born June 22, 1918, and departed this life May 3, 1923, at the age of 4 years, 10 months and 11 days. He leaves his father, mother, seven brothers, 5 sisters, 2 half-brothers, one sister having preceded him. He was sick only a few weeks. The little one made a brave fight for life, but his little body was too weak, and he went back to the Great Master who gave. His little form will be greatly missed by all, as he was a neighborhood favorite, but God [knows] best.

Funeral services were conducted from the home Saturday, May 5, at 4:00 p.m., by E. E. Lowe, with a quartette from the Church of Christ. Interment was made in Bedford cemetery. Many flowers were in evidence, and a large company attended the services.
Too Beautiful For Earth
In Memory of Lee Archer Wyckoff:
In the Darkness of Night,
The Reaper of Death so free,
Came and took from us,
Our Darling Little Lee.
A Bright and loving child,
And full of life was He.
A Rose-bud bursting in bloom,
Was our Sweet Boy, Lee.
He is now one of God's Angels,
Too beautiful for earth and
Sin, was He.
God knows best and called, Come,
I will love and care for your
Darling Lee.
(Composed and written by his aunt, Mrs. Dall Churchill, Sheridan, Mo.)
