• Notes

  A wide circle of friends and acquaintances were shocked and sincerely grieved this morning to hear of the sudden passing of Charles W. Grimes, forty-two-year old mail carrier, who was claimed by death at 10:35 a. m. today at the Good Samaritan Hospital. The deceased underwent an appendectomy at that institution about two weeks ago, and it was believed that he was recuperating satisfactorily. While preparing to leave the hospital this morning, he suddenly collapsed, and was pronounced dead. Embolism was named as the cause of death. Mr. Grimes made his home at 317 Guilford Street. For the past fifteen years he has been employed by the local post office as an assistant and later a regular carrier. He has served in practically every section of the city during his years at a letterman, but most recently he has delivered mall in the Pleasant Hill district. He was a member of the St. Mark's Reformed Church. He was fraternally affiliated with the Mt. Olivet Lodge, 704, F. and A. Aland with the Mail Carriers' Association. In addition to his wife, Hazel Mae Grimes, nee Brown, he is survived by the following children: Harold Richard, Richard LeRoy, Robert Lee, Ethel Catherine, Jeannette Louise, and Daniel Thomas, all at home. His father, John B. Grimes, of this city, and the following brothers and sisters also survive: Mrs. John Weirich, of Hamburg; George Grimes, of Lebanon; Robert Grimes, of Hamburg; Mrs. Earl Bowman, of Annville; Mrs. Frank Donley, of this city; Mrs. Clifford Stoessel, of Lebanon.
