Funeral services were conducted by Rev. W.D. Stevens of Vermillion, assisted by Rev. D.D. Hall of Manhattan, on Saturday afternoon at 2:30, at Westmoreland, Kansas, at the Westmoreland Methodist church. He was laid to rest in the Westmoreland cemetery. The pallbearers were: Lloyd, Ralph and Raymond Hops, Elmer Hammarlund, Don Clary and Everett Warner.
Not thus his nobler part shall dwell,
A prisoner in his narrow cell;
But he who now we hide from men,
In the dark ground shall live again,
Shall break these clods a form of light
With nobler mien and purer sight;
An in eternal glory stand
Highest and nearest God's right hand
