Death, the Grim Reaper, came Into our own family last week with the suddenness that has characterized so many tragedies this year, And with its coming, our youngest brother, Ted, answered the call A veter an of' both World War II and the Korean I campaign, his overtaxed heart gave way last Wednesday aiterfioon and he Idled at his wife's feet. Just able to reach the door of his home he had no time to say goodbye nor God bless you when he was taken Into the land where there is no death. Just 35. in the prime of We with what we like to think as everything to live for a wonderful wife, a home In Boston, and a summer cottage which he and our other brother, George, had lust bought this year countless friends and a food Job as a tobacco salesman all this he had. 1 1 Funeral services.

were held Saturday, Oct 31 Sister Ball flew from Detroit, and we enplaned the day before'. for the it riles at Norrts Davis' funeral home. Young Rev. Roger Williams officiated and as he talked we remembered our little aermonetto of last week that MOn one hand one gets a break and with the ether suffers, a loss." And we took It unto ourselves we were so happy In our new home, aa thrilled so on tip toe with delight that we suppose something had to ateady us on an even keel once more. Not that we believe God is cruel in balancing our earthly budget Rather We' feel that He looked at the ledger and thought it would be far better for Ted to go quickly, without lingering or suffering because Ted was an active person always busy, always doing something, never coptent to sit quietly and let life flow by.

A lingering death would have been doubly tragic so we feel God was kind in this way the shock was on those of us left behind. And again we say, enjoy each precious small moment of time allotted to us because we know not the day, nor the i Sorrowful Journey We had some day to return to Boston for a gay time to greet old friends and renew the old nostalgic twinges that come upon us from time to time. But fate chose oth trwise this trip was a sorrowful Journey, with the only spots of light In the gloom, the sight of familiar aces. Our great aunt "Npnlet, Mrs. NraiHarris.
