He leaves to mourn his loss his aged father and mother, now in their 85th and 87th year, the one brother, Clark of Brooklyn, and one sister, Mrs. Addie Robins of Corvallis, Oregon. He was truly a great home body and for a number of years was away from home but a few hours at a time. His kindness and big-heartedness were his peculiar characteristics. The happiest moments of his life were spent while he was rendering some service to a neighbor or friend. There are few people that will gather around them more friends in a local community than did he. He not only had the ability to make friends, but to keep them. He was forgetful of self while he lived to serve others. The family have the sympathy of all the surrounding community in this hour of sorrow.
The funeral service was held at the home Thursday, May 18th, conducted by the Rev. John. W. Pool, pastor of the Methodist church.
