Jerry Key

  Funeral rites for Jerry Key, age 16, were held Wednesday at 2
p.m., at the Alford Heights Baptist Church, with Rev. Willis
Greer officiating, assisted by Rev. H. H. Tibbitts. Interment was
in the Ft. Jesup Cemetery, under the direction of Warren Funeral
Home.

  Survivors are his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Orvil Key; three
sisters, Barbara, Jimmy Lynn, and Jackie; also grandparents, Mr.
and Mrs. W. J. Key, all of Many.

  Pallbearers were members of the Intermediate Sunday School Class
at Alford Heights Baptist Church, Benny Cooper, Jimmy Dees,

Alford.

  Jerry was killed instantly Tuesday, by a pistol shot. The
accident happened at the home of Frank Veuleman. Key was visiting
Truman Veuleman, a grandson of Frank Veuleman. The two boys had
been playing with the pistol, a .32 caliber Colt, when it
accidentally discharged, in a report by Sheriff T. M. Phillips.
Dr. L. H. Murdock of Zwolle, Sabine Parish Coroner, held an
inquest, and ruled that the death was accidental.
