Ernest DeSloover, 58, died August 3, 1956, at 5 a.m., at Salem, Oregon, suddenly, and unexpectedly, from a heart attack. The DeSloovers moved from near Riceville to Salem some months ago.

The body arrived in Riceville Tuesday. Mrs. DeSloover and Vivian came from Salem to Minneapolis by airplane and were met there by Mr. and Mrs. Gene Farus.

A funeral service will be held at 10 a.m. Friday at the Immaculate Conception church. The Rosary will be said at the Loper Funeral Home this evening, Thursday, at 8 o'clock.

Ernest DeSloover was born of Ferdinand DeSloover and Julia Rooze on March 9, 1898, at Moline, Illinois. As an infant, he accompanied his family in Europe returning with them when he was three years old, when they settled on a farm at Hartwick, Iowa. His elementary education was received in Iowa county.

Suddenly thereafter, he met Lily Stirniman being on a nearby farm whom he married on November 18, 1918.

To this union were born two sons and three daughters. Clarence and Emmett died in infancy. Surviving him besides his wife are Veronica Clappier, Rochester, Minn.; Virginia Farus, Riceville, and Vivian, at home; and four grandsons. Also surviving are two sisters and two brothers, Mrs. Cantellis Plouvier, Chelsea, Iowa; Mrs. Mary Martens, Charlotte, Mich.; Alphonse [sic - Alfonse] DeSloover, Moline, Illinois; and Victor DeSloover, Lawler, Iowa, besides many nieces and nephews.

After his marriage, he and his family lived on the Stirniman homestead three and a half miles southwest of Riceville. In 1949, they sold part of this farm and placed a new set of buildings on the remaining quarter section where they lived until March 1956 when they moved to Oregon.

Ernest was a devout member of his church. His reserved nature did not detract from his being a good neighbor, a loving husband and a kind father.

He served on the township school board for many years and for a short time on the Mitchell County Hospital Board.

Preceding him in death besides the two infant sons were his parents, the mother in 1917, the father in 1930.

Survivors are his wife, Lily; daughters, Mrs. Veronica Clappier, Rochester, Minn.; Mrs. Virginia Farus, Riceville; and Vivian DeSloover, Salem, Ore.; also four grandchildren, two brothers and two sisters.

His funeral was in the charge of the Riceville Funeral Home with a High Mass of Requiem at 10:00 o'clock, Friday morning, August 10 in the Immaculate Conception church offered by the Pastor, Rev. A. F. Stirn assisted by the church choir under the direction of William Diederich.
