OBITUARY IN THE LINCOLN COUNTY TIMES NEWSPAPER
Jerome, Idaho, November 14, 1918
J.F. SORRELS PASSES AWAY
On last Friday night, in the temporary hospital established in
the Eagles Hall, occurred the death of J.F. Sorrels from
pneumonia following an attack of influenza. The unfortunate
gentleman was sick but a few days and although all possible was
done for his recovery, it was not to be and he answered the
call of the grim reaper.
Mr. Sorrels was among the early settlers in Jerome, coming here
with his family at an early date to establish his home, and was
quite well known over the tract.
The deceased leaves a wife and three sons, the youngest being
only 18 months old, who will mourn the loss of an affectionate
father and husband.
The funeral was held Saturday with interment at Jerome Cemetery.
