Highly Respected Citizen Dies Friday –
Citizens of Wolbach were grieved Friday when it was learned that John Nealon had passed away at his home in Brayton following a week's illness from pneumonia.
John Anthony Nealon, oldest son of the late Mr. and Mrs. John Nealon, was 46 years of age January 31, 1935. He was born in Logan precinct in this county where he lived all his life until about three years ago when he moved to Brayton where he had since made his home with his brother Tom and family.
Mr. Nealon could almost be regarded as one of Wolbach's leading citizens as he was the secretary of the local Farmer's Co-operative Association for the past fifteen years, a position he held at the time of his death. He enjoyed a wide acquaintance and was favorably known and highly respected throughout this section of the state. He was a faithful member of the Catholic Church and the K. C. Lodge, and was a candidate for the State Legislature in the last election.
Largely attended funeral services were held in the O'Connor Catholic church Monday morning conducted by the Rev. Fr. McDaid. Ed Cleary, Jim Feehan, Jesse L. Scott, Harry Salter, Wm. Joyce and Mike Faherty served as pall bearers.
Surviving to mourn his passing are one sister, Mrs. Peter Meister of Elsie and seven brothers, Frank, William, Thomas, Earl, Paul, Matthew and Maurice and many other relatives. His parents and one sister, Mrs. Joseph Meister preceded him in death.
The sincere sympathy of the community at large is extended to the sorrowing family.
