Daily Times-Index (San Bernardino, CA.), P. 8, Col. 2 Thu., Jun. 9, 1904 WELL KNOWN YOUNG MAN IS DEAD Demise of Henry Keller Took Place This Morning at the Family Home After a Lengthy Illness - Leaves Wide Circle of Friends. Henry Keller, one of the best known of the younger set of business men here, died this morning at the home of his parents, Mr. and Mrs. F. M. Keller on Mill street, beyond Waterman avenue, after an illness extending over a year and a half, having been afflicted with tuberculosis. The funeral arrangements have not yet been announced. The decedent was born in San Bernardino 26 years ago, his birthday would have been celebrated the 30th of this month. He was one of the partners in the Santa Fe Laundry company until recently when his gradual decline forced him to abandon all occupation. Few young men in town are honored with as large a following of friends as the decedent gathered about himself through his geniality and open heartedness, and it is a wide circle of acquaintances who will feel the loss which his death has caused. The Weekly Sun (San Bernardino, CA.), P. 1, Col. 6 Fri., Jun. 10, 1904 LAST SLEEP FOR HENRY KELLER Henry Keller, one of San Bernardino's best known young men, died at the home of his parents, Mr. and Mrs. F. M. Keller, in East Mill street, yesterday morning, a victim of laryngeal tuberculosis. Death was far from unexpected, his illness having for months wasted Mr. Keller's strength and brought the end near, week by week and day by day. When the end came it was not marked by a single struggle or pain. "I shall go to sleep once more and it will be over," the young man said, and closing his eyes, he dropped first into a quiet sleep and then to that deeper sleep which knows no mortal waking. During his life in San Bernardino he made many friends; friends who have known him since they were boys together. All of his school days were spent in San Bernardino, terminating his studies here when, with the Class of '97, he graduated from the High School. The funeral will take place at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning, from the late residence. The services will be conducted by Rev. Mark B. Shaw of the Baptist church. Daily Times Index (San Bernardino, CA.), P. 2, Col. 3 Sat., Jun. 11, 1904 HENRY KELLER LAID TO REST THIS MORNING The funeral of Henry Keller took place this morning from the family residence, Rev. Mark B. Shaw officiating. There was a large attendance, almost every young man in town who could get away from his business taking this means of showing his last respects to the memory of the decedent, whose death the other day, though anticipated, came as a blow to the community. The floral offerings were especially beautiful and elaborate, requiring an extra conveyance to take them to the cemetery. Among the pieces was a large pillow, numerous casket bouquets, and a magnificent Gates Ajar. These loving remembrances collected about the beautiful casket in which the sleeper lay lifeline, and as one who had merely fallen into quiet slumber, made a touching picture. The "Gates Ajar" was sent by the following friends of the decedent: T. L. McFarlane, S. Buckley, J. Donnivan, O. Eastwood, A. L. Mettler, J. Shedden, M. Allison, W. Carson, P. Knapp, Guy Hale, R. Bradley, W. H. Eadie, E. Allison, W. A. Vale, Frank Cooley, Brown Kramer, C. Lothrop, W. Parson, R. W. Brazelton, A. Reitz, F. Letier, Russ MacGillivray, Louis Wolff, Ira Cole and Frank Woodling. The pall bearers were chosen from among the young men who have known the decedent during his life and were: Louis Wolff, Ira Cole, Jack Kier, J. Donnivan, Claude Allison and R. Brazelton.
