Read More	The very uncertainty of life has again been revealed and brought a deep realization, by the sudden passing of Harvey Anderson early Thursday morning, April 16. Without a moment's warning he was called to answer the final summons when struck by a bolt of lightning while attending his morning chores. Few people realized there had been any severe lightning, even his family unaware of it until they investigated his prolonged absence, only to find him dead. His death has cat a deep gloom of sorrow over the entire community where he was so well and favorably known. John Harvey Anderson, second son of Ruben and Ada Maxwell Anderson, was born July 12, 1900, in Mason township, Taylor county, and passed away April 16, 1942, at the age of 41 years, 9 months and 4 days. His entire life has been spent in Taylor county and the New Market vicinity. He followed his chosen occupation of farming all his life, but for the past several years he has been active in the auctioneer business and last summer graduated from the Bradley auctioneer school at Nashville, Tenn. On June 29, 1921, he was married to Glacile McAlpin and to this union four children were born: Deloris, now employed at the state hospital in Clarinda; Harold, at the parental home; Lois, Arlene and Donna Lee who have been tenderly cared for by the grandparents, Mr and Mrs Ruben Anderson since the death of the mother, who passed away five years ago this summer. On Nov 26, 1941, Mr Anderson was married to Miss Ferne Farnham of Gravity. They immediately established their home north of New Market, only to have it entered and broken by death after less than five months of wedded life. At an early age the deceased united with the Christian church at New Market where his church interests were still centered. Harvey, as he was familiarly known by all, was kind-hearted, affectionate and devoted to his family; a thoughtful son and brother; a good neighbor and a true friend to those with whom he had close associations. His was such a disposition that he could be cheerful even under trying conditions; always looking on the bright side of life, hopeful of a better future and a smile for everyone. Of him it can be truly said he was always ready to lend a helping hand wherever it was needed, willing to go more than halfway to bear his share of the burden or responsibility, and any service he could render was freely given. Trials and sorrows he himself had borne seemed only to deepen his sympathy and add greater significance to his duty to his loved ones; likewise as a neighbor or friend to fellow men. Those left to mourn his passing are his devoted companion of a few short months, the children and parents, a brother, Harry of Woodward, Ia, one sister, Mrs Elbert Miller of New Market and a host of other relatives and a very large circle of friends who sincerely mourn his untimely death. Funeral services were held at the New Market Christian church Saturday afternoon, April 11, with Rev C.M. Eppard in charge. Burial was in Old Memory cemetery. Casket bearers were Clarence Wood, Ray Glasgow, Floyd Maley, Harry Glasgow, Roy Johnson and Harlan Howes. CLARINDA HERALD JOURNAL, Clarinda, Iowa, Apr 27, 1942
