Stanley C. Fahrni Dies from Tetanus

Stanley Fahrni, 20 year old son of Mr. and Mrs. Chris Fahrni of South Boston,
Ionia County, died Sunday afternoon in Blodgett hospital, Grand Rapids, from
lockjaw as the result of amputation of fingers on his left hand about two weeks
ago when they were caught in a corn husker.  He was released from the hospital
about a week ago, but was readmitted Sunday morning.  His death followed a few
hours later.

Stanley C. Fahrni, oldest son of Mr. and Mrs. Chris Fahrni, Jr., was born June
24, 1912 in So. Boston, Ionia county, Mich., and departed this life Dec. 11,
1932.  He leaves to mourn his passing, three sisters, Letha, Beulah and Freda,
and three brothers, Wayne, Gerald and Junior, many other relatives and a host of
friends.  

After graduating from the eighth grade he was for a time enrolled as a student
in the Clarksville high School.  For the past few years he has been engaged in
helping to operate his father’s farm, where he has been a most faithful worker.  

He was an attendant of the South Boston Congregational church and Sunday school
and a member of the local PTA, also the Grange, having filled several of the
various offices of the latter organization at different times.  He will long be
remembered by both relatives and friends for his cheerful disposition and the
sterling qualities of his young manhood.  

The funeral services were held Tuesday at the home at 1:30 and at the South
Boston Congregational church at 2:00, the Rev. Bedell of Clarksville,
officiating.  Burial was in the South Boston cemetery.  The funeral arrangements
were by the Yeiter Company.  Pallbearers were Stanley’s former school-mates –
Joseph Schwab, Donald Kyser, Kenneth Tucker, Wilbur Young, Maynard Tucker and
Wilbur Nick.  The music was furnished by Charles Nash and his son Orvin Nash,
also a schoolmate.  The church was filled to capacity by sorrowing friends and
the profusion of flowers testified to the esteem in which Stanley was held by
all who knew him.
