GLEN O. TAYLOR

Glenn Orland Taylor, second son of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. H. Taylor, was born July 10, 1910, and passed from this life to the life beyond Dec. 15, 1918, succumbing to pneumonia, following the flu; the same deadly disease which took from earth his brother, Arthur, the day before; thus taking from one home two loved ones in so short a time. He was with us only eight short years, but his sweet, loving disposition won for him a place in the home and hearts of his many little friends which will be a loving memory to the little life which budded on earth, only to blossom in Heaven.
