Zook.-John E., son of Jacob and Mary (Hooley) Zook, was born Oct. 30, 1864, in Mifflin Co., Pa.; died Oct. 5, 1941; aged 76 y. 11 m. 5 d. He came to Ohio while a young man and was married to Emma, daughter of C. K. and Catherine Yoder, Jan. 26, 1897. One son and 2 daughters were born to bless their home. At the tender age of four, a daughter (Bertha) was called to her heavenly home. Those remaining are his wife, a daughter (Mary) and son (Lawrence), who are a comfort and help to their mother, at this time of bereavement, and in the days to follow. An only brother preceded him in death. The relatives remaining are several cousins; one cousin (Reuben Zook), a close neighbor, preceded him a week previous. He united with the Mennonite Church in his youth, and at the time of his death was a member of the South Union Church. Thirty-two years ago he suffered a severe stroke of paralysis, and since that time has been a partial invalid, but was able to attend church services and visit with friends and neighbors, the last few years. A week ago his condition became serious, and Sunday, about noon, he quietly passed away. Funeral services were held at the South Union Church, conducted by N. E. Troyer and Marion King. Burial in the South Union Cemetery. 1 1
