Charles Raymond Drollinger was born April 10, 1893, near Humboldt and died July 15, 1914, aged 21 years, 3 months and 5 days. His death was caused by heat prostration while at work in a stone quarry Wednesday afternoon of last week. When he was four years old his parents moved to Humboldt where he grew to manhood. In January, 1912, he was converted and united with the M.E. church. He was also a member of the Epworth League, a regular attendant at church, League and Sunday School every Sunday for two years with the exception of two Sundays. Raymond was obedient to his parents, keeping God's command, "Honor thy Father and thy Mother." He was industrious, ambitious and unselfish, always glad to render kindness to the members of the family and others, thinking more of the welfare and interests of others than of his own. He was honest, truthful and trustworthy, clean in his morals and habits. Raymond was a Christian young man, his life has glorified his Creator and he has gone to his reward.
Funeral services were held from the M. E. church Saturday morning at 10 o'clock conducted by Rev. Lawellin assisted by Rev. Nanninga, and internment was in Mount Hope cemetery.
