The obituary states he died at a Clarinda hospital. I assume it is referring to Clarinda, Iowa, which is located in Page County, 80 miles southeast of Council Bluffs. I'm not sure why he would have died at a hospital in Clarinda as opposed to Council Bluffs. Please contact me if a correction needs to be made. Several family trees show place of death as Glenwood.
