DANNER, LOUIS E.
(24 Jun 1915, Thursday, Sayre Standard, Sayre, Beckham Co, OK):
The funeral of the late Louis E. Danner, who died suddenly at Norman,
Oklahoma, on Saturday, June 19th, was held from the Methodist church at
10:30 o'clock Tuesday morning.  The funeral sermon was delivered by Rev.
W. L. Anderson before a large congregation of friends of the deceased, and
the services at the cemetery were conducted by the Modern Woodmen of
America of which order the deceased was a member.
Louis E. Danner was born in 1869 in Macon county, Missouri, being 46 years
of age at the time of his death.  In 1901 he moved from Missouri to
Oklahoma, and with his wife and family settled at Sayre.  For several
years he has been engaged in cement work.... (missing).  A short time
before he was taken ill he was building a cement cistern on Railroad Hill
when he fell from the ladder and received injuries which at the time were
not thought to be serious, but which are now believed to have been the
beginning of his illness.  Only two or three days before his death he went
to Norman for special treatment and it was confidently believed that he
would soon recover.  A dispatch from the doctor at Norman on Saturday
conveyed the sad news to his brother, J. M. Danner, of Sayre, that death
came within a short time after his arrival.  The news was a shock, not
only to his family and near relatives, but also to his many friends here
who did not realize that he was seriously ill.  The deceased leaves a wife
and eight children, seven girls and one boy, an aged father, three
brothers and many personal friends to mourn his loss.  The body was laid
at rest in the Doxy-Sayre cemetery.
(Other notes):  Mrs. D. Zimmerman, of Macon, Mo.; Mr. and Mrs. C. M.
Danner, of Elk City, and Mr. and Mrs. O. T. Danner of Clinton, were here
Tuesday to attend the funeral of the late Louis E. Danner.
