Portland Observer, 3 May 1934

Fred DeLaney, of Pewamo, World war veteran and a former resident of Portland, 
died suddenly Friday afternoon while in a field looking after a flock of sheep 
pastured on the Conrad Fox farm one and one-half mile northwest of that 
village.  Funeral services were held Monday morning at St. Patrick’s church 
with burial in Portland cemetery.

Mr. DeLaney was 42 years of age.  He was born in Middleton, Gratiot county, and 
came to Portland 21 years ago, later becoming associated with Fred England and 
Wright Wakley in the barber business, giving up that vocation several years ago 
going into the oil business with his father-in-law, Frank Fineis, and locating 
in Pewamo.

Eleven years ago he was united in marriage to Miss Beatrice Fineis who, with an 
adopted son, and one sister, Mrs. Ben Kinney, of Pompeii, survive.

The funeral, one of the largest ever held in Portland, was attended by members 
of the Dale E. Hyland post, American Legion, in a body, with Dr. Basil Lowry, 
William Harris, Albert Guidi, Oliver Tschopp, Mino Stegenga and Jack Haley 
acting as pallbearers.
