"Former Residents Succumb At Danville - Homer—Double funeral services were conducted Monday for Mr. and Mrs. Milton J. (Red) Yeazel. The services were conducted at the Edmund & Dickson Funeral Home in Danville, where the couple had lived for many years, but both were born and raised in Homer and have many distant relatives living here.
Mr. Yeazel, 85, a retired meat products salesman, died at 9:30 a. m. Thursday, in the Veterans’ Hospital, which he had entered two weeks ago. Mrs. Yeazel, 78, died at 12:20 a. m. Saturday in St. Elizabeth Hospital, where she had been a patient two weeks.
Mr. Yeazel was born June 29, 1873, near Homer, son of James and Elizabeth Littler Yeazel. He received his education in the Homer schools, and enlisted in the Spanish-American War. Following his discharge he settled in Danville in 1900 where he married Manie Mae France on August 1, 1900.
Mrs. Yeazel was born June 2, 1880, near Homer, and was reared by Sanford and Candace Jerauld France of Homer. She, too, was educated in the Homer schools and moved to Danville in 1899." - Newspaper Unknown, Transcribed by the Homer Historical Society (Obituary provided by Raymond Cunningham)
