Howard Coder
Dies At Nampa
Hospital

    Funeral services for Howard Stanley Coder, 33, Greenleaf farmer, will be held Wednesday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock at the Friends church in Greenleaf, with the Rev. Milo C. Ross of Greenleaf in charge.  Interment will be in the Greenleaf cemetery.
    Coder died Sunday in a Nampa hospital from burns received in a home fire near Greenleaf on January 24, when a kerosene can exploded in his hands as he attempted to pour fuel on a fire in the kitchen stove.
    The flames caused by the explosion spread so quickly that both Coder and his five year old daughter, Barbara Clair, who was standing near him, were enveloped in the blaze.  Barbara Clair died in a Caldwell hospital within two hours after the accident occurred.
    The survivors are his widow, Eleanor Coder; two daughters, Norma and Joan, all of Greenleaf; his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Charles Coder, two sisters, Fay and Joyce and one brother, Perry, all of Elwood, Neb.
    Mr. Coder was born at Elwood, Neb., on November 22, 1905 and came to Greenleaf more than three years ago, where he has since made his home with his family.
