Death Claims John Wood



John Byron Wood, a native of Clare County, passed away Friday, March 30 at the 
Community Hospital in Mt. Pleasant, following a ten day illness there.



He was born the son of Christy and John [sic] Wood, August 17, 1877, in Clare 
County, and left Michigan when a young man to make his home near Seattle, 
Washington until 1944 when he returned here.  He had made his home with his 
sister Mrs. Effie Harvey and family, since that time.



Farming was his occupation, and he was a great lover of the out-of-doors.  He 
will always be remembered by his friends and relatives for his kindness and 
consideration of others, always ready to give a helping hand, and during his 
stay at the hospital was considered as one of the model patients.



His wife, Evelyn, of Spokane, Washington, preceded him in death also two 
sisters and two brothers, Mrs. Rose Davis of Clare, Mrs. Mary Orvis, Jesse 
Wood, of Battle Creek, and Charles Wood of Walla Walla, Washington.



Besides his sister Mrs. Harvey, he is survived by nieces and nephews, other 
relatives and friends.



Funeral services were held Monday afternoon from the Thurston Funeral Home at 
2:00 o’clock with Rev. Virgil Brinkman officiating, and interment in the Harvey 
lot at Cherry Grove Cemetery.
