Belding Banner-News, 28 Jan 1925

Death Claimed Popular Student Of Local Schools

Young Promising Life Ends Following Operation For Appendicitis

A cloud of deepest sorrow hangs over our community and the Belding High school
at the passing of Forrest Gibson, son of Mr. and Mrs. A.D. Gibson.  Forrest
Sheldon Gibson was born December 6, 1907 and died January 23, 1925, aged 18 years.

Forrest has always lived in this community with the exception of 7 months when
the family moved to Battle Creek for the treatment of his brother, John, who
passed away three and one-half years ago at the age of 16 years.  The two
brothers were inseparable in this life as we feel they are in the next and are
as happy as they were here.

Forrest entered Belding High school September, 1922, where he was a junior
student at the time of his death, which followed an operation for appendicitis.
 Throughout his three years of High school he was admired for his unaffected
manner, his clear wholesome countenance, his sincerity in school work, his
dependability and loyalty to his school and home, and those qualities of
manliness made for him lasting friends.

He leaves a mother, father and brother Donald and a host of relatives and
friends to mourn their loss.

The funeral was held January 26 at the home, Rev. Chas. Heywood, of Saranac,
officiating.  The burial was at Easton cemetery.
