Was Excellent Young Man

The young man was formerly connected with Schneider Bros. store, and was also in the laundry business, both as an employee and part-owner of plants.

He was a member of the Knights of Columbus and the University lodge of Fraternal Bankers' Reserve. Among his society brothers, and throughout the city, he was well-liked and highly-esteemed -- and deservedly so. He was a young man of honesty, energy and industry, and his pleasant ways and warm heart won friends on every side.

"Clif", as he was familiarly styled by scores, will long be mourned.
