WARREN BRADLEY YODER

  Warren Bradley Yoder, son of Mr. and Mrs. Mahlon Yoder, aged 10 years, 11 
months and 8 days, died at the parental home at Summit Mills, January 27, and 
was buried at St. Paul's Elk Lick Township, Jan. 30, 1932.
  Warren suffered an attack of rheumatic fever two years ago and this affected 
his heart.  He never completely regained his health, suffering intermittently 
from enlargement of the heart, each spell becoming more severe.  He last took 
his bed Jan. 9 and from the beginning of this confinement he suffered with 
unusual severity, which held out little hope of recovery.
  He was of an usually bright and lovable disposition and will be sadly missed 
in his home, school, Sunday school, mission class, and the entire community.  
Between the occasions of his suffering he made every effort to attend his 
school, where he always led his class.  His inclination led to religious 
principles, too, and he was earnestly engaged in reading his testament as long 
as his strength permitted before his last call came.
  Besides his parents, he is survived by five brothers, Russell, Jacob, Donald, 
Billy and Jack, also grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. A. L. Faidley and Jacob D. 
Yoder, besides a large circle of other relatives.
  The numerous floral tributes attested the high regard of the people for Warren 
and his family.  As Rev. Kieffer justly said, "to know him was to love him."
  The members of the family expressed themselves as very appreciative of the 
help received during the period of their bereavement, also for the floral 
tributes and use of friends' cars for the funeral.
