Funeral services were held Monday morning at 9 o'clock at Sacred Heart Church in Lawrence. Mr. Friend was one of this vicinity's best known residents. He was born in Illinois and came with his parents as a child to Fairfield, where they settled. For many years he herded cattle around Lawrence when it was still a village in the midst of a community of sod houses, and later became a contractor. He entered the hardware business in 1919, continuing until last fall when his health compelled him to dispose of it. He maintained an office at the business, however. He left the office Thursday evening to go home and his car became lodged in the snow. Over-exertion from pushing the vehicle loose apparently led to his death. He is survived by his wife, son I.J. Friend of Hastings, May of Chicago, Virginia of Wichita, Pat, Frank, Ann and Matt, all of Providence, R.I. The latter is in the coast guard. The Nelson Gazette, Thursday, March 25, 1943; pg. 1
