"A large number of friends were saddened this week by the death of George 
Kirsheman," said Rev. F.J. Pitch, speaking at the funeral services held at the 
home, 257 Lafayette street, Monday afternoon. "He had no enemies." Mr. 
Kirsheman had been one of the first deputy fish and game wardens in the 
community and for years served as conservation officer. He died Saturday after 
several months of poor health. "The Evidence of God in Nature" was the theme 
around which much of the sermon centered. "Mr. Kirsheman's appreciation of the 
evidence coupled with his pleasure in doing friendly and neighborly acts made 
him a favorite in this community," stated Rev. Fitch.

There were many flowers for the services and were in charge of Miss Millie 
Kress, Mrs. E.W. Krainbrink, Mrs. Fred Owens, and Mrs. Ed. Lowrey. Mrs. R.A. 
Colwell and Mrs. Thane Benedict sang.

The bearers were Fred J. Owens, W.W. Briggs, T.B. Preston, Fred Tower, Fred W.

and the officers gave the ritualistic services at the grave. Spencer Smith
