     CHERRY TREE - George W. Sinclair, 72, of Stifflertown, Cherry Tree R.D.1,

     Friends may call at the funeral home from 7 to 9 p.m. today and from 2 to 
4 and from 7 to 9 p.m. tomorrow.
     

Additional Comments:
Will and John are George's great grandson and grandson, respectively. George 
was never a member of the Stifflertown Evangelical Church, though his wife 
was, so this is mistake by the newspaper. Also, George did not have a son 
named 'Philips,' but rather Wilbur Alexander Sinclair of Rockford.
