Del Norte Prospector dated October 25, 1968
Chapel services were held Wednesday morning for James Kenneth Easterling, 61, of South Fork, who died early Monday at the hospital. He had been a resident of the South Fork district for six or seven years and prior had come to the area as a summer visitor many seasons. Ken was a buyer for a Texas wholesale drug concern, and clerked at the South Fork Store the past few years. He was a registered pharmacist—coming up as an apprentice and passing the exams.
He was born at Laurel, Mississippi. He enlisted in the air force at Lubbock, Texas, and was discharged three years later.
He is survived by his wife, Madge, three sisters, Eleanor Byford, Pauline Beckham, and Blanche Richardson, all of Dallas, and a niece and nephew.
Rev. Lee Corey officiated and the pallbearers were Ford Davis, Boyd, Scott, and Ty Brown, Myron Cochran, and Orville Jackson. Morton Willey and Dr. L.A. Wilcox were honoraries. Burial was in the Del Norte cemetery.
