Obit For John Coones
Headline A Good Man Dead
Text John Coones died at his home in Crane Monday evening, Feb. 4, after a long illness from a complication of diseases. He was 52 years of age and had spent his entire life near Cato in Barry County, coming to Crane only last summer, where he could take medical treatment. Everything that could be done for him was done but to no avail.

He was an excellent citizen and was held in high regard by all who knew him.

Besides his wife and nine children he leaves three brothers, Rev. Davis Coones of Flat Creek, Rev. Melvin Coones of Cassville, and Charles of Paris, Texas.

Funeral services were conducted, yesterday by Rev. Lewis Smith at the Doty Cemetery on Flat Creek where burial was made beside other members of his family gone before. Crane Chronicle.
