February 17, 1930
Clark W. Kisner, prominent resident of Fairmont, whose death occurred yesterday
morning in his home, 807 Coleman avenue, will be laid to rest Monday afternoon.
Services will be held in the Central Christian Church at 2 o'clock with the
pastor, the Rev. Ralph Roberts officiating. Interment will be made in Woodlawn
cemetery by R. C. Jones, undertaker.

Mr. Kisner was aged 52 years. He was vice president and treasurer of the John M.
Kisner & Brother Lumber Company, and was identified with other business
enterprises of the city. Mr. Kisner had been ill for seven months past and he
had sought different specialists in the hope of finding relief from maladies
that seemed to baffle the skill of all who attended him. For a few months Mr.
Kisner was a patient in Cook Hospital, but for some time past was at his home.
He was ever the object of the most tender devotion and attention on the part of
his wife and family. His health began to fail less than a year ago. He had
aenemia and other complications. Mr. Kisner had been failing rapidly in the past
several days. He was given several blood transfusions during his illness.

Mr. Kisner had a great sorrow in June of last year in the death of his only
daughter, Mr. Mary Elizabeth Kisner Hall, wife of William E. Hall, and her
passing was a severe blow to him. Since that time his health had been generally
impaired. The deceased is survived by his widow, Mrs. Cora E. Kisner, and two
sons, Albert Kisner, of Philadelphia and John Kisner, a student at the West
Virginia University, Morgantown. Both sons have been at his bedside for several
days. The deceased was a son of the late George and Ann Kisner, and he was born
May 8, 1878, in Preston County. For the past thirty years Mr. Kisner had been a
resident of Fairmont. The deceased is survived by two brothers, John M> Kisner,
of this city, who was his business partner, and Will O. Kisner, of Reedsville,
Preston County, also two sisters, Mrs. Ella Kendricks, of Fairmont, and Miss
Ella Kisner, of Independence.

Mr. Kisner was recognized as a man of splendid ability as a builder and
contractor, and many buildings about the city will be landmarks to his memory.
He was a member of the West Virginia Lumber Dealers Association. Mr. Kisner was
a splendid citizen, upright in his dealings and had large circles of friends. He
belonged to the Central Christian Church and was active in the work of the
church. Mr. Kisner had a pleasing and kind manner and was deeply devoted to his
family.

Several relatives will be here from a distance for the funeral.
