Obit For George Franklin Setzer
Headline -
Text George Franklin Snizer died very early Saturday morning, June 22, 1907, of consumption, age 34 years, 3 months and 10 days, at the residence of his father, M. Y. Setzer near this city, leaving a loving wife, fond parents, sisters and a brother, and other relatives to mourn his death.

Rev. Ewing McCracken of Sarcoxie conducted the funeral services at the family residence Saturday at 2 p.m., after which the remains were conveyed to Oak Hill Cemetery at this place and laid to rest.

His death has brought the bitter cup of sorrow to the lips of the relatives and friends. It is sad at any time to stand beside the bed of the dying and watch life's ebbing tide drifting the loved one slowly but surely into the great ocean of eternity, but when there comes whispering from parched lips: "Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; Thy rod and Thy staff they comfort me," it brings a balm to the wondered heart.

Thus closed the life of George Setzer. To the heart-broken wife, father, brother and sisters, who sit in sorrow where his footsteps will never again find echo, we extend our sympathy. When they have drained the cup may the peace that passeth all understanding come to them from One who cares for each little sparrow that fallest.
