In addition to his parents he was preceded in death by one brother, Loren (Betty) Roberts of Ravenna, Ohio.

Funeral services will be held 2 p.m. Tuesday, August 11 at Chapel Baptist Church of Nobe. Reverends Harry Drake and Carroll McCauley will officiate. Burial will be in the Nobe Cemetery with Military Graveside Rites.

Friends may call at Stump Funeral Home, Grantsville from 4 to 8 p.m. Monday and one hour prior to the services Tuesday at the church.
