Ionia County News, 11 May 1939

Funeral services for the late Dr. F.A. Hargrave were held from the Methodist
church, Tuesday afternoon, May 9, with a large attendance of sorrowing relatives
and friends.  Rev. J. Broxholm, pastor of the church, officiated and music was
furnished by Mrs. Guy Comstock and Mrs. Chas. Bailey with Mrs. Louis Herrick at
the piano.  Bearers were members of the Ionia-Montcalm Medical association of
which Dr. Hargrave was dean.  An escort of Sir Knights from Ionia Commandery was
in attendance and burial was in the family lot in the Palo cemetery beside his
wife who preceded him in death, July 13, 1936.

Dr. Hargrave was born at Menominee Falls, Wisc., 82 years ago and was educated
in the public schools of that state, later obtaining his medical degree from the
University of Michigan, Ann Arbor.  Soon after he came to Palo and established
his practice and for 55 years has ministered to the needs of the people of the
village and of a wide territory adjoining it.  He had established a reputation
for his treatment of skin cancer and people came to him for treatment from many
sections of the state.

Dr. Hargrave was a member of Palo Masonic order, Ionia Commandery Knights
Templar and also belonged to the Maccabee and Gleaner organizations.  For 24
years he was a member of the Palo school board, and president of the cemetery
association until ill health forced him to retire.

Surviving him are two sons Dr. Don W. Hargrave of Eaton Rapids and James of
Lansing; a daughter, Mrs. Harmon Kline of Detroit who has remained with her
father for the past three years and tenderly cared for him during his periods of
ill health.  He is also survived by one sister, Mrs. Mary Judavine of Ronald who
is the last surviving member of the family of eight children and a number of
nieces and nephews.
