OBITUARY

The funeral of the late Clayton Nelson, at the Mona church last Saturday afternoon, was largely attended. The church was far too small to accommodate those who came to pay their last respects to this popular young man whose tragic death was a shock to the entire community.

The floral tributes were numerous and beautiful, expressing in a small measure the love esteem and sympathy of the community. The pall bearers were Bob Rick, Russell Helfritz, Dean Thompson, Kenneth and Lloyd Everson, Orlando Grove.
