Brief Illness Takes Life Of John Yosten Thursday Afternoon Funeral Services Held Monday Morning From Sacred Heart Church Funeral services were held here Monday at 9 o'clock from Sacred Heart church for John A. Yosten, 70, a citizen of this community for 43 years, who died at his home the preceding Thursday. Pastor Rev.

Serving as pallbearers were six nephews of the deceased: Henry Yosten, Urban Endres, Jimmy Endres, Werner Yosten, Buddy Yosten and Al Swirczynski.

On May 8, 1905, he was married to Miss Hattie Endres. She died In January 1941. Mr. Yosten was a charter member of the Muenster council Knights of Columbus, and during his residence here took active interest in parish and community affairs. He was possessed of a gentle good-humored nature and had many friends throughout this sector.
