Loos, Milfred (23 NOV 1904 - 12 JUN 1927)

Milfred Loos, son of Mr. and Mrs. E. D. Loos, passed away at the Marshfield Hospital Sunday, June 12, 1927, melense sarcoma with secondary anemia being the cause of his departure to the distant shore. Funeral services will be held this Thursday afternoon at the Methodist Church, Rev. Hanscom officiating, and interment made in the Colby Cemetery.

The deceased was but twenty-two years, 6 months and 19 days of age, and, although ailing for some time, he had been sick only a short while. Seemingly with us today, active in life's round of work and duty, but gone tomorrow. Only a few years ago, he was married and leaves two small children and his wife to mourn his death. He was born in Colby, Wis. and here played as a child; here he went ot school and graduated from our high school; here he grew to manhood; here most of his busy life was spent and his faithful service tendered to the world, although for the past two years he was employed in Milwaukee.

Besides his wife and two children, his demise is also mourned by his parents, two sisters and three brothers.

He was of a pleasing disposition and had a large circle of friends in Colby, especially amon the young people, who extend sympathy to mourners.
