DEATH OCCURS OF CHARLES WILLS
WELL KNOWN FARMER PASSES AWAY SHORTLY AFTER PARTAKING OF HEARTY MEAL.
[The Welland-Port Colborne Evening Tribune, 18 November 1931]
Fenwick, Nov. 18- Pelham township suffered the loss of a highly respected resident Sunday afternoon in the death of Charles Wills. He had been about as usual, and after eating a hearty dinner decided to take a rest in his chair, but only a few minutes later peacefully passed away. He was born in Pelham township, and all his life carried on the occupation of farmer, being a man highly respected throughout the community. He always took an active interest in the welfare of the township. In religion he was a member of the Disciples church at Rosedene, and in politics a reformer.
The late Mr. Wills is survived by his wife, Mrs. Velma Wills, and one son, Wesley, at home. Two sisters and one brother also survive as follows: Mrs. Lorne Coon and Mrs. Mary Metler, both of North Pelham, and Wesley Mills of Niagara Falls.
The funeral took place Tuesday afternoon from the family residence and was largely attended by relatives and friends. Interment took place in the North Pelham cemetery where the remains were laid to rest among a profusion of beautiful flowers.
