Long, Roscoe -- On Sunday afternoon at 10 o’clock the Evangelical church was filled to overflowing by the large number of relatives and friends who had assembled to take part in the funeral exercises of a dear friend, who had been called. Although young in years, Roscoe had risen to a much higher plane than many far his senior, and had only a future of the brightest of prospects before him. But death which is no respecter of persons and which has made so many homes lonely and disolate had again removed one of our dearest friends from among us, who was soon to be laid away in the silent tomb never again to greet and be greeted by those whom he loved and held dear to his heart. The occasion was a very sorrowful one indeed and caused many tears to flow from the eyes of those who had assembled in due respect for the dead. Having not yet arrived at the age of 19, Roscoe had finished a course at the high school in this place only a few months ago, and was one of the pleasantest and brightest pupils of the graduating class of 1903, to know him was to love him, only as a friend dear to all. His stay in this world however, was only for a little while just for a time only just long enough by the way, to form many acquaintances of fond parents, brothers, sisters and kind friends, only to be severed while yet in youthful happiness by the icy hands of death. Roscoe Long, son of Mr. & Mrs. John Long, was born May 9, 1885, and died Oct. 30, 1903, aged 18 years, 5 months and 21 days. He leaves a father, mother, two sisters, four brothers and a large circle of friends to mourn his death. He was a kind and industrious boy, a member of the class of 1903, of the Union schools at this place, and apparently a young man of bright prospects for the future. <<scripture omitted>> [Butler Times: 07 November 1903, Vol. XI, No. 15]
