Arthur Blackburn, son of James and Mary Margaret Blackburn, was born Nov. 3, 1899, and departed this life, August 6, 1944, at the age of 44 years, nine months and three days.
He was united in marriage to Doris Six on December 21, 1922, and to this union were born three children- one son, Dean, who is in the service at Dodge City, Kansas, and two daughters, Mardell and Fern, at home. His father preceded him in death in 1934, and his mother three months ago. Two sisters, Mrs. Minnie Brown and Lola Adams and one brother, Richard, also preceded him in death.
He leaves besides his immediate family, three sisters, Mrs. Maude Yelm, Mrs. Myrtle Pile and Mrs. Bess Gregory. Two brothers, Lincoln and Fred, all of Winchester.
"Aut" as he was known to his friends and family was loved by all who knew him, and to his friends and neighbors, he will be remembered as being ever ready to help at any time.
Although during the greater part of his life he was ill, he always was cheerful and patient.
His passing leaves a place vacant in the home circle and in the hearts of all who knew and loved him that can never be replaced.
Funeral services were held at the Christian church at 2:30 o'clock Wednesday afternoon, Aug. 9, 1944, Eld. Harley Ford of St. Louis officiated and was assisted by Rev. R. L. Schwab, pastor of the church.
Selections were sung by Misses Eileen Patrick and Rhoda Cowhick, accompanied by Mrs. Nora Bean.
