FRENTRESS, Eleazar Clarke, Springs Valley Herald (July 19, 1917) Obituary
Eleazar Clarke Frentress, eldest son of John W. and Isabelle [Clark] Frentress, was born near French Lick, July 26, 1898, died at the home of his grandfather, July 7, 1917, age 18 years, 11 months and 11 days.
His life has been noble and pure, and his influence will be remembered and become a blessing in the lives of those who knew him best long after they have ceased to grieve over his departure.
At the death of his father, six years ago, he realized the responsibilities that would fall upon his shoulders, as the oldest child, and nobly did his part; helping those who were unable to help themselves and becoming a support and comfort to the widowed mother.
His illness was but a time of waiting for the coming of his Master. He was ready and anxious to go as was often expressed in his prayers and conversations. He made public his belief in the saving power of Christ, joined th church and was baptized in may of this year.
He was a dutiful and obedient son, a kind and loving brother and a sincere friend.
He leaves a mother, one sister [Helen], three brothers, many relatives and friends who will mourn his absence, yet realize that their loss is his gain.
The funeral services were conducted by Rev. J. B. Flannigan at Mt. Lebanon sunday afternoon. Interment at Mt. Lebanon Cemetery.
