Father: Fred Edward Wormood
3 Jan 1918: LAD'S DEATH KEENLY FELT IN COMMUNITY/Frederick Wormood Dies Friday Night-Funeral Held Monday Morning. One of the saddest deaths which has occurred in this city in many years was that of Frederick Wormood, ten year old son of Mr. and Mrs. F.E. Wormood of this city on last Friday evening at the home of his grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Charles Brady. Mrs. Wormood arrived home Friday afternoon from Waco, Texas where she had been visiting her brother. During her absence Frederick had been staying with his grandparents and had been seriously ill but a few hours, a slight cold which he had contracted the day before, developing at noon on Friday in Pulmonary Adema, which proved to be fatal. He was born in Lake Geneva, Nov. 2, 1907 and died Dec. 28, 1917 [note: marker shows 29]. Frederick was a favorite with all his playmates and teachers and in fact with all who knew him. He was of a particularly sunny disposition and early showed marked musical ability. Everyone will miss him deeply. Funeral services were conducted by Rev. Father Smith at St. Francis de Sales church at nine o'clock Monday morning. Rev. Smith in remarks told of the many many loving traits of Frederick's character and said his associates would do well to emulate him in his manliness. Six of his little friends acted as pallbearers: Charles Brady, Vincent Allen, John Host, Milton Reed, Lester Edwards and Hugh Lewis Burdick. The floral offerings were numerous and beautiful. Burial was in the Catholic cemetery. The sympathy of the entire community goes out to the sorrowing parents and relatives. [unknown Lake Geneva newspaper]
