His sweet and loving disposition endeared him to all who knew him; to whom his untimely death was a severe shock as he had been improving in health until stricken with appendicitis. He leaves to mourn their great loss his parents, one brother Frederick, two devoted grandmothers, two great grandmothers and three uncles. We loved him, yes we loved him, But angels loved him more; And they have gently called him To yonder shining shore. The Golden Gates were opened, A gentle vocide said, "come;" And with farewells unspoken, He calmly entered home. The funeral was held at the home on Friday.. Fev. L. L.Steadman gave a spender talk and the music was by Geraldine Reiser and Mardie Wortley accompanied by Teresa Cramer.The pall bearers were Oscar and Fred Lindquist, and Orvin Garlinger and Averd Earl, uncles of little Ivar. Burial was at Lakeside. --------- CARD OF THANKS We wish to express our sincere thanks and appreciation to our many friends and neighbors for the beautiful flowers and the kindness shown us during the sickness and death of our darling Ivar.
