Obituary
After an illness of only four days, Raymond Duprey, youngest
son of Elmer Duprey, died at his home in Swastika Nov. 12. His death was caused
from diabetes, the result of the “flu” three years ago.
He was apparently as well as usual until Saturday morning
when he said he was very weak. Medical
aid was obtained at once but the physicians gave no hopes for his recovery.
Although only sixteen years old he was a very popular young man.
He is survived by his father, five brothers, Orril of Au
Sable Forks, Wilfred, Wilbur, Edward and Chester of Swastika, and three
sisters, Miss Addie of Newport, R.I., and the Misses Florence and Valedia, who
reside at home. His mother died eight years ago. He was buried in the family
plot at Black Brook. The pall bearers were Peter LaDuke, Leo Douglass, Joseph
and Edward Carmel, Mose and John Betters, all friends of the young man.
Mr. Duprey and family have the sympathy of the entire
community. They extend thanks to all who so kindly assisted them in their
recent bereavement.
