FUNERAL OF OWEN CRONIN
Waverly Republican: Mr. Dennis Cronin, of LeMars, Iowa, who was present at
his father’s funeral, went to Nashua to visit relatives Tuesday.

The remains of Mr. Owen Cronin were brought to Waverly Monday, Nov. 27, for
burial. He died at Clinton, Ill., where he made his home with his daughter,
Mrs. John Sullivan. Mr. Cronin was one of the early settlers here where he
lived for a number of years and raised a family. He afterwards moved to
Cherokee, Iowa, thence to New Orleans, and from there to his late home. He
was nearly ninety years of age, and up to his last illness had enjoyed
unusually robust health. The remains arrived over the Central and the
funeral took place from the Catholic church, conducted by Father Dougherty
and Father Sullivan, the latter of Cedar Rapids.
