LYNN RAY SUPLEE DIES OF PNEUMONIA

Lynn Ray Suplee, infant son of Mr. and Mrs. Roy Suplee, died early Friday evening at the home of its grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Elmer Stonebreaker northeast of Anita.

The child had been ill with pneumonia and was apparently recovering nicely. It became worse Friday evening and Mr. and Mrs. Suple started with it to the Atlantic hospital. They stopped at her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Stonebreaker, to get their car as it was warmer. The baby died shortly after they arrived at the Stonebreaker home.

Lynn Ray was born on October 24, 1943 at the Sulplee home northwest of town. Besides his parents, he leaves a sister and a brother at home. His paternal grandmother is Mrs. Frank Schwenke of Anita. He also leaves three great-grandparents, Mrs. Almira Rickle and Mr. and Mrs. Fred Kline , all of Anita.

Funeral services were held Monday afternoon at two o’clock at the Christian church here with Rev. M. D. Summerball, pastor of the Methodist church, in charge. Mrs. George Smither and Mrs. Hayes Reburn, accompanied by Mrs. Eric H. Osen, sang ”Safe in the Arms of Jesus,” and “Sometime We’ll Understand.” Burial was in the Anita Evergreen cemetery.
