Obituary clipping from unidentified newspapers:
David DeCalvin GOSS 1840-1936 son of Wesley and Charlotte Shay Goss, was born at Wilkes Barre, Pa., Oct. 16 1840. At the age of 16 years, he went to Peoria, WI. In 1860 he moved to Pepin, Wi. He later married Helen HICKS and they spent a greater part of their married life in Mondovi, WI. In 1920 he moved to Groton(N.Y.) to the farm known to the older residents as the Bostwick place where he has resided ever since. His wife passed away 5 years ago in June 1931.
Mr. Goss was a member of the Baptist church for a great many years. He was a quiet, home loving man, a kind husband and father and was honored and respected by all who knew him. He had been in failing health nearly all winter, but was taken much worse on Wed., Feb. 19 and went to his eternal reward on Thursday Feb. 20 at 1:30 a.m. He was 95 years, 5 months and 4 days of age. He leaves to mourn his loss 4 sons, Wilmer, with whom he resided, Norman of Locke; L.D. of Ventura, Ca., Chauncy of Mondovi, WI., 2 daughters, Mrs. Jane Ellenberger of Mondovi, WI., and Mrs. Mary Van Hoosen, Corvallis, Wis., (Wa.?) 21 grandchildren, 24 great grandchildren and 3 great great grandchildren. 2 named grandchildren include Helen Goss of Homer and Mrs. Bert Ross of the Metzgar district. The funeral was held at the home of Robert Booth of Groton on Sat. Feb. 22, 1936 at 2 p.m. Rev. Francis Trimmer of the Baptist church officiated. The body was placed in the receiving vault of the Groton Rural Cemetery awaiting burial in the spring. The bearers were Sam Hoffman, Clyde Smith, Clarence Devlen, and Lawrence Devlen.
The snowbanks in this section resemble small mountains rising up on either side of the road. The people feel that they are fortunate, however, as no one has suffered from lack of food or fuel. They also appreciate very much the effort made by the Superintendent of highways D.J. Watrous, Edward Walpole and his men who kindly responded to the call with the snow plow and opened the roads to the home of Wilmer Goss when his father passed away.
