Diptheria being the aid of the grim reaper. Robert was born November 19, 1926 and died October 19, 1932, being five years and eleven months old. Dr. W. LeRay Bennell was the attending physician during his brief illness of two days. A brief funeral was held at the home Wednesday afternoon. Many of the relatives and friends of the sorrowing family were present, and as they looked upon the sweet placid little body in its white casket, and surrounded by beautiful and fragrant flowers - yet not more beautiful or pure than the face within - their hearts swelled in sympathy for the bereaved family. Do not think of little Robert as dead, but as living; not as a flower that has withered, but as one that is transplanted, and touched by a Devine hand, is blooming in richer color and sweeter fragrance than those of earth.
