The Obituary of George E. Purcell 7 November 1874 - October 1942 From the Livonia Gazette, 3 October 1942 The community was shocked on Thursday, when George E. Purcell, a much-respected citizen died suddenly at his home, from heart attack. He had been in poor health for some time, but had been able to be around, and lately his condition seemed better. Mr. Purcell was born Nov. 7, 1874, on the farm where he spent his entire life, a son of Isaac and Lucy Briggs Purcell. He was a graduate of Livonia High School in the class of 1894. In 1898, on Jan. 12th, he was united in marriage to Hattie Harder. To them two daughters were born, Marion who died in infancy, and Mrs. Theodore Henry, who lived with her father, and survives him. The funeral services were held at the home, Sunday, with interment in the Curtis cemetery. The Rev. Paul Madsen of the Hemlock Baptist church officiated. Surviving, besides the daughter, are five grandchildren, Mrs. Kenneth Gladding of Hemlock, Mrs. Adelbert Murry of LeRoy, and Laura, Theodore and Ralph Henry at home; also three great-grandchildren. The sympathy of the community is extended to the family
