John Lambert Bacon was born Feb. 2, 1869, in Ohio, and came to Oconto Falls as a child with his parents. He operated a farm until his retirement to Oconto Falls in 1931. Since then he had accepted occasional employment and had been working at the Coleman plant about six weeks. He married Florence Hammond 49 years ago, and she survives along with two daughters, Mrs. Victor Bresczpennix, Lena; and Mrs. Hans Gudwehr, Pound; and two brothers, Adolph, Oconto Falls and George, Manitowoc.
The bereaved wife and daughters have the sincere sympathy of all in this sorrow.
