Tribby - Byron
Source: Crawfordsville Review. Crawfordsville, Montgomery County, Indiana Wednesday March 15, 1916
The word was received here last Friday
morning announcing the death of Byron, the 7-year-old son of Mr. and
Mrs. HB Tribby had occurred at their home in Evansville, at about 2
o'clock Friday morning. Byron had been sick only about 9 days, being
taken with lagrippe which developed into bronchial pneumonia, which
caused his death. The remains were brought here by train arriving
Saturday morning and were taken to the home of his grandparents, SR
Tribby and wife where they were viewed by the numerous friends and
acquaintances. The funeral was held from the Methodist Church Sunday
afternoon at 2 o'clock, Rev. George B. Jones of Hillsboro conducting the
services, assisted by the local pastor, Rev FC Sager. The interment
was made in the New Richmond Cemetery, MA West having charge. The
bereaved parents have the sympathy of the entire community in their loss
and the fact that Byron was an only child makes the affliction seem
more sorrowful. Byron was a fair flower, plucked at an early age to
grace the presence of the master.
