Mr. George Lensink, age 65 years, who resided in the Noltze apartments in Sioux City, Iowa was found dead in his home Sunday, October 24th. Dr. Harmon E. Rider, Woodbury county coroner, said death was due to a heart attack and that Mr. Linsink had died late Saturday night or early Sunday.

In 1941 he moved from Sheldon to Sioux City, where he was employed in a garage.
