FRANCIS WILLIAM NORDEEN

Francis William NORDEEN was born August 22, 1920, at Oakdale, Nebraska. His father passed to the great beyond about a month before his birth. Though he never knew his father he did not lack for friends. His bright, cheery ways and patient little life was a source of pleasure and joy in the home and everyone who knew him loved him. He belonged to the cradle roll of the U. B. Sunday School and was a faithful little Sunday school attendant. He answered the call of his Heavenly Father on June 14, 1923, aged 2 years, 9 months and 23 days. His mother and little sister, Eva, will surely miss him, so will other relatives and friends, but he has gone to be with the Great Shepherd of us all, where no harm will ever befall those of His fold.
