Two duets, "Face to Face" and "Abide with Me" were sung by Mrs. B. W. Talcott and Miss Marie Jewell, Miss Eva Preston playing the accompaniment. At the conclusion of the services the American Legion, who attended the services in a body, followed the long procession to the Strawberry Point cemetery, where the body was consigned to the grave in accordance with the rites of the Legion.
