SUDDEN DEATH OF GEORGE HICKEY, SR., SHOCKS FRIENDS
WELL KNOWN CITIZEN EXPIRES AT HIS HOME IN EAST COLUMBUS
Mr. George Hickey, Sr., a respected citizen, died at his home No. 1706 South Sixth avenue, about 1 o'clock Tuesday, and his death, which was sudden and unexpected, proved a severe shock to his family and friends.
Mr. Hickey had not been in robust health for more than a year, but was attending to business as usual Monday, and did not complain of feeling badly when he retired Monday night. About 1 o'clock Tuesday morning, however, he awakened, and, after a groan of agony, expired before a physician could be summoned. His malady had been diagnosed as Bright's disease, which is believed to have been the primal cause of his death.
Deceased, who was 65 years old, was a native of Gananoque, Ontario, Canada, but had been living in Columbus nearly 40 years, having during the greater portion of his residence here been engaged in business as a contracting plumber. He is survived by his widow, three daughters, Mrs. E. L. Kuykendall, Mrs. Edna Swift, and Mrs. Tracy Green, and three sons, Messrs. William, Stockard, and George Hickey, Jr. Messrs. Stockard and William Hickey are members of Uncle Sam's Navy, while the remaining members of the family live here.
Mr. Hickey took an active interest in lodge work, having been a member of Queen City Camp, No. 23, Woodmen of the World, and other fraternal organizations. His death is universally regretted, and countless friends join the Commerical in extending sympathy to the bereaved family.
The funeral was held yesterday morning from the family residence, conducted by Rev. W. S. Slack, interment having taken place at Friendship Cemetery.
