Earl McKimmy

   McKimmey--Earl Frederick, son of Mr. and Mrs. Jasper McKimmey, was born in Ogden township, Lenawee county, Michigan, Feb. 14, 1896, and died in a hospital in Hoboken, New Jersey, Jan. 17, 1918, aged 21 years, 11 months and 3 days. Earl enlisted July 21, 1917, and was assigned to Third Co. 2nd Infantry, His oldest brother died when 9 years old and the oldest sister in January, 1912.

   Earl took every opportunity to obtain from the common school of his home an education, and was highly respected and esteemed by all who knew him. He leaves a father, mother, one sister, and four brothers and a host of friends to mourn his loss. Let us believe that in the silence of the reeding world that he heard the great waves breaking on a farther shore, and felt already on his wasted brow the breath of eternal morning.
