A number of his young men associates were the bearers of the casket which was covered with flowers taken of the love and esteem in which Otis was held. | Headstone Roger Longley Death Certificate Online Newspapers Phyllis Long Photo Darla Marbut |

Anthony and Mrs. Mae Reed arrived. Rev. Anthony cut a hole in the screen wire to open the screen door and the inside door was not locked. When they entered the house they found the body in bed with the covers pulled up over her. This was about 8:30 o'clock. Funeral director Morris Pogue was called and the coroner Doyle Williamson of Cassville was called. No inquest was held and he determined Mrs. Reed had died about 8:15.

Research Note: Wheaton Journal, March 4, 1932 - Ommer Junior Reed, son of Ommer and Nellie Reed, of near Clark School house was born Jan. 29, 1925 and died Feb. 29, 1932, at the age of 7 years, 1 month and 2 days. He leaves to mourn his passing his parents, three sisters, three brothers, both grandmothers, one grandfather, aunts, uncles, cousins and many friends. Junior was a kind and lovable child. While he has gone from the scenes, the conflicts, sorrows and pleasures of this life he will still live in the hearts of those who knew him best, and we dare not ask why he was taken from us, unless as flowers that are picked before the frost finds them that we may not witness their decay. It is sad, indeed, to see one taken so early in life, yet for him there was no standing on the boarder land gazing into the unknown. But now he will sleep where the daisies and the clover hangs its head, where the song birds come and the wild bees hum above his head. His memories will live in all our hearts and we will hold it ever dear. Services were conduced at the Mt. Pleasant Church Tuesday, Feb. 1, at 2 o'clock by Rev. Ollie Ennis of Monett. The little body was laid to rest in the Clark Cemetery under the direction of Pogue's Undertaking Service. | Headstone Roger Longley Online Obit Photo Darla Marbut |

(Ommer) Reed, 51 years old, was killed suddenly Tuesday afternoon at his farm home on Shoal Creek, 6 miles southeast of Wheaton, when the full charge from a 12 gauge shot gun struck him in the chest. He was dead when his wife found him a short distance from the house where the gun had been accidentally discharged as Mr. Reed was crossing a barb wire fence. Mrs. Reed related that a woodpecker had been annoying them by pecking on the house. Mr. Reed remarked that he would get his gun and kill the bird. Mrs. Reed went about her work in the kitchen and in just a few minutes she heard a shot and presumed her husband was shooting at the bird. However, when he failed to return to the house she went in search of him and found him dead. Mr. Reed had apparently leaned the gun against the fence, climbed over the fence and then started to pick up the gun with the muzzle pointed towards his body. In some manner it was discharged with the muzzle of the barrel near the center of his chest. Corner Paul Henbest was called but after he viewed the body he did not hold an inquest as every indication pointed to an accidental death. The body was removed to the Pogue Funeral Home here in Wheaton to await funeral arrangements, which are incomplete at present. Surviving are his widow, Miss Nellie Reed; six children, Mrs. Alton Howard, Cameron Mo., Mrs. LeRoy Shrum, Orange Cove Calif., Mrs. Lamonie England, Exeter Mo., Truman Reed, Stockton Calif., Adrian Reed, Kansas City, Mo.
