MO death cert. #4436

Roscoe Conklin Wall was born at the home place near Clara in this county April 6, 1886, making his age at time of death January 26, 1919, 32 years, 9 months and 20 days. He was the son of William and Sarah Wall. The father died some years ago, but the aged mother survives to sorrow over the loss of her dear boy. He is survived by the following brothers and sisters: Mrs. J. C. Forrester and Mrs. J. H. Forrester, Neodesha, Kansas; Mrs. J. R. Womack, Houston; Mrs. Henry Wolfe, Tamaroa, Illinois; T. M. Moody, Houston; Mrs. Mary Campbell, Galeton, Colorado; Mrs. Wallace McCandless, Willow Springs; Mrs. Wm. Gooch, Mountain Grove; P. F. Wall, Antler, Missouri.

He was married March 24, 1912, to Miss Ethel Simmons, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Simmons, and to this union one child was born, James Millard. The wife and child are left to mourn the loss of a kind and loving husband and father.

Roscoe was converted at the time of the Harris meeting and joined the M. E. Church, South, living a faithful and consistent member to time of his death. His truly was a beautiful, christian character, and he served in places of trust in the church work.

Funeral services were only semi-public, being conducted from the porch of his home by his pastor, Rev. William Bentley, and a few songs were rendered in the yard by friends, Tuesday afternoon, after which interment took place in Houston cemetery. There were few dry eyes, for Roscoe was universally beloved and respected and the hearts of all go out in deepest sympathy to the bereaved wife and little baby boy.

Farewell, Roscoe, rest in peace.

Many beautiful floral emblems covered the casket, among them a handsome monument of flowers, representing a broken column, from the officers and stockholders of Texas County Bank.
