LENGTHY ILLNESS PROVES FATAL TO WOLFE NATIVE

G.M. Center, 65, died at his home in Indianapolis, Ind., on March 9th

Polly Center of Hazel Green and the late D.B. Center and also a nephew 
of the late Dr. G.M. Center for whom he was named.

A funeral service was held in Indianapolis on Friday morning and then 
the body was brought to the Hearne Funeral Home at Campton and kept 
until Saturday morning.

Funeral services were conducted at the Hazel Green Methodist Church on 
Saturday morning at ten o'clock by Rev. Willie Taylor under the 
direction of Hearne Funeral Home.  Burial was in the Hazel Green Cemetery.

The deceased is survived by his wife, Mrs. Mattie Rose Center, 
Indianapolis, Ind., a daughter, Mrs. Helen Rose Bowling, Huntington, W.VA: and 
also an adopted daughter, Mrs. Betty Jane Sandusky, Evansville, Ind; 
his mother, Mrs. Polly Center, Hazel Green, three sisters; Mrs. Carrie 
Deering, Middletown, Ohio; and Mrs. Nora Clark and Mrs. Jack Trent, both 
of Hazel Green; numerous other relatives and a host of friends.

Nephews of the deceased acted as his pallbearers; Howard Sandusky,

All of his family and other close relatives were able to attend the

wife's sisters, Mrs. Bess Morgan and another sister Ruby, of Logan,
