Gould, Floyd H. (12 MAY 1896 - 12 JUN 1946)

Floyd Henry Gould was born May 12, 1896 at Merrillan, Jackson Co., Wis., and passed away at his home in Harrisonville Mo., June 12, 1946, at the age of 50 years and 1 month.

He was the son of John F. and Anna L. Gould, both of whom preceded him in death, together with one daughter, Elaine.

Mr. Gould had been a resident of Longwood (Clark Co., Wis.) for 20 years until 1942, when he moved with his family to Harrisonville, where he opened his own business, which he managed very successfully until his death.

He was married to Miss Ruth Tesmer of Thorp, Wis., April 17, 1942, who is left to mourn his loss, together with his two daughters, Esther and Verna Mae, by a former marriage. He also leaves one sister, Laura, Mrs. Robert O. Johnson of Harrisonville, Mo., besides a host of other relatives and friends. He was a good neighbor and friend and a generous, loving husband and father. These few words fail in so many ways to cover the active, energetic life of this deceased loved one. He will be sadly missed by all who knew and loved him.

Funeral services were held Friday at Atkinson Bros. Funeral Chapel in Harrisonville, after which he was taken to Alma Center, where services were held in the Methodist Church Monday, June 17, and he was laid to rest in East Lawn Cemetery.
