Russell E. Ward, 60, of Jackson who spent many of his boyhood summers at Muir 
with his aunt and uncle, the late Mr. and Mrs. J. E. Culbertson, died Saturday 
afternoon in Jackson.  Funeral services will be conducted in Jackson Tuesday 
afternoon at 2 o’clock, and burial will be there.

Mr. Ward had been in poor health several months.  Last spring he submitted to 
an operation for appendicitis and while operating the surgeons discovered an 
intestinal growth.  He went to Rochester, Minn., as soon as he was able after 
the first operation and at Rochester submitted twice to surgery and seemed to 
be recovering and had been able to be at the office in the McLaughlin & Ward 
elevator shop where he is a member of the firm some time.  Two weeks ago he 
became ill and continued thus until his death.

Surviving are the widow and four children and his 80-year-old mother, all of 
Jackson.

Mr. Ward was a graduate of the Jackson high school.  While a young man he 
entered the firm which bears his name and which owns several elevators about 
the state.  He was prominent in civic affairs, was a member of the Masonic 
lodge, Kiwanis club and had been chairman of the Jackson county Red Cross.
