He was born October 1, 1894 and was at the time of his death 24 years, 24 days old. He entered the service at Maquoketa, May 27, and before entering the service of his country he was a first class lineman for the Western Union Company. Besides his parents he leaves his grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. P. C. Bogaard, four sisters and one brother, Mrs. Ernest Kendall, Mrs. Mattie Noonan, Edna, Christina and Wencil O’Connor. These are the things that make the winning of the war a heavy load, and many friends of these people extend their sympathies in this great sorrow.
