Dr. J.B. Grove sleeps the last sleep, many mourns the loss of a prominent physician and business man.
Dr. J.B. Grove died at his home here Friday, February 19,1987, at 1:30 P., aged 43 years and 5 months.
His health has been failing for several years and recently took a decided turn for the worse, yet his death as a considerable shock.
The funeral took place from the Presbyterian Church at 11:00 o'clock A.M. Sunday. The services were opened by the very familiar and consoling hymns, "Come Ye disconsolate, wheree'r ye lanquish." This was followed by a scriptural reading and prayer by Rev. C.M. Sarver and hymn, "A few more years shall roll", Rev John J Fix then preached from the words of scripture, "who that abolished death, and hath brought life and immortality to the soul to light through the gospel." It was couched in very appropriate terms, and made exceptionally strong by numerous scientific and bible references. Hymn, "Thou art the way, to thee alone, "closed services at the church and the funeral procession formed for the Petersburg Cemetery, where the remains were placed to rest with conventional ceremonies.
Deceased was a son of Dr. Thos J Grove, and one of the most prominent physicians and business men in this section of the state. During more than twenty years of active business life, he had, by various acts of kindness made his way into the harts of many people who are left to deplore the loss, with immediate relatives.
The pall bearers were D.P. Hendrickson, A.A. Welton, Aaron Seymour, K.J. Foreman, H.F. Baker and W.C. Smith.
The attendence at the numeral and other services were very large many being present from a distance.
