      Name & the following hand-written obituary of Jessie Willard Shiverdecker from family papers:
      Arlene Arledge Gregory:
      Jessie Willard, son of C.C. and Della Shiverdecker was born March 24, 1918, near New Paris, Ohio, and departed this life Jan. 16, 1923 near West Alexandria, Ohio. Aged 4 yrs. 9 mo. and 22 days. He leaves to mourn his death, Father, Mother, three sisters: Imo, Alice, and Lucille; four brothers: Charley, Earl, William, and Herbert, One Grand-mother, two Grand-fathers, and many other relatives and friends, Three sisters having preceded him to the Spirit World.
      He was sick but 48 hours with membranous croup, which caused his death.
      Little Jessie was exceptionally bright and possessed a notable memory. He at once won the love and concern of those with whom he came in contact. All was done for him that loving hands could do. But the Death Angel came and took him home.

      He saw a hand we could not see,
      Which beckoned him away.
      He heard a voice we could not hear,
      Which would not let him stay.
      These ashes few, this little dust,
      Our Father's care shall keep,
      Till the last Angel rise and break
      The long and peaceful sleep.
