The body was carried to Kentwood, La., Monday, April 24, where interment was made in the Kentwood Cemetery. The deceased is survived by his mother and father, Mr. and Mrs. H. O. Schwartz of Winnfield, and one sister, Miss Elizabeth Strickland of Kentwood. Friends and teachers of the little boy kept in close touch with him while he was in the hospital, visiting him often.
