Note: Obituary and Missouri death certificate both have him removed to Messer cemetery Monday, September 9, 1968, yet he is apparently in Lowell cemetery with a double marker, assumed with space for surviving wife, formerly Wilma Lane Gandy, previously married to John Gandy, they divorced, both now deceased. I haven't found either of them on Find A Grave. OMJB.
