exposure to wind and weather while performing his official duties would 
make him immune to the same disease relatives were shocked to learn that 
he was battling against pneumonia that resulted in his untimely death.
He was a young man of excellent character and of quiet and unassuming
manner which made him a general favorite with all who knew him. He is
survived by his widow, one daughter, parents and three sisters, Mrs.

Remember the love that we once
shared.
Miss me, but let me go.
