Funeral services were conducted Friday from the Catholic Church in Ladysmith for Hugh Yankee, 62, who died November 20 at his home there following a long illness.

 

Mr. Yankee was born March 28, 1899, in the Town of York and as a small child moved with his parents, William and Catherine (Lezotte) Yankee, to Tony. His father was engaged in the logging business.  He later moved to Ladysmith, where he had resided for several years.
