WATERFORD
Mr.
Homer Johnson passed away at the home of his parents, Mr. and
Mrs. Joseph Johnson, Waterford, on 12 Jan 1920.
Homer was in
his 44th year and was born in Jarvis in 1876. He came here with his
parents 30 years ago.
A few years
ago, his health failing, he went to California, where he consulted
physicians, but to no avail. He gradually became worse, and last May
returned home, where all that loving hands could do for him was
done.
His
cheerfulness of mind and wonderful patience with which he bore his
illness will not soon be forgotten by those who knew him.
He appreciated
so much the calls and kind words of Revs. Anderson and Wilkins.
It being
impossible for Mr. Anderson to be here, Rev. Mr. Wilkins conducted
the funeral service at the home of his parents.
Besides his
father and mother, deceased leaves one sister, Mrs. C. E. Shearer of
Ohio.
