    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/1hB.2ACE/1481.1.1.1.1.1 Message Board Post: The following obit I have typed from the issue of August 11, 1939 Leonard Graphic: "Elmer A. Brookins, 37, died at 6AM Sunday, August 6, 1939, at his home near Randolph. He had not been well for some time but death came unexpectedly. Funeral services were held Tuesday at 2PM at the Randolph Tabernacle. Rev. Shaw, assisted by Rev. Simmons, conducted the last rites. Interment was made in the Randolph Cemetery with Pat Wilson of Leonard in charge. Mr. Brookins was born near Farmersville, August 19, 1902, the son of Mr. and Mrs. T. C. Brookins. He had lived in the Randolph community for a number of years and is survived by his wife, Mrs. Daisy Brookins, and three sons, T. C., Roy and James; his father, T. C. Brookins of Randolph; two brothers, Charlie of Breckenridge and Floyd of Detroit, and two sisters, Elizabeth Antione, Dallas and Mrs. Ralph McGee, of Trenton." Hope this helps fill in some of your missing info. Bob (my husband) is the one who worked at E-Systems in Greenville, not my dad. Thresa
