Obit For Sanford Vanburen Sooter
Headline Obituary
Text Departed this life, July 6, 1913, at his home, one mile northeast of Butterfield, Sanford Vanburen Sooter, of quick consumption, age 24 years, 10 months, 27 days. He had been sick for sometime. He bore his suffering with meekness and when conscious, greeted all with a cheery word and smile. All that loving hands could do was done.

He was converted in 1910 and joined the Methodist Church. He was united in marriage March 17, 1912 to Miss Nelsie Hilburn. He leaves to mourn his death a wife, his parents, M.A. Sooter and wife, one brother Elmon, of Monett, one sister, Lydia, and a host of other loving relatives and friends.

The funeral services were conducted Sunday, July 6 by Rev. J. W. Ennis and interment made in the Mt. Pleasant Cemetery. May God comfort the bereaved in their dark hours of grief is the prayer of a friend.
