He leaves to mourn him, his father and mother, one brother, Scott, of Lowell, two sisters, Mrs. Edna Roberts, of Hammond, and Miss Vera, of Lowell.

Funeral services were held at the home Tuesday at 10 a.m. Rev. C.A. Brown conducted the funeral service. Interment was made at Lowell cemetery in charge of Undertaker Sheets.
