SPRAY INFANT IS SUMMONED
Services for Mildred Marie SPRAY Held Yesterday Afternoon

Mildred Marie SPRAY, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. A. T. SPRAY, was born September 6, 1930 and departed this life at 2:30 o'clock a,m., (sic) Saturday, July 4, at the age of nine months and twenty-eight days. She was taken seriously ill with bronchial pneumonia on Monday, June 29, and was given immediate care of doctors who did all possible to relieve her.

Those left to mourn her departure are mother and father, two brothers, Harold and Glenn, and one sister Bernis, her grandparents and a host of other relatives and friends. Twin brothers preceded her in death in their infancy.

Her short stay on this earth filled the home with sunshine. Her place in the home and hearts of the bereaved family can never be filled.

The funeral was held from the Hoskins funeral home, Sunday, July 5, at 5 o'clock, in charge of Rev. D. C. Eddy. Interment took place in Evergreen cemetery here.

Note: The twin brothers were Myrl and Donald, who were born and died in 1910. They are also buried in Evergreen Cemetery, along with parents Anuel and Mary, and Mildred, in Lot 2nd.118.
