The body of Dr. G. C. Price, of Judson, which was to have arrived from France on Thursday, May 19, did not get here until Saturday. Funeral services at Mt. Moriah Church on Sunday were conducted by Rev. Mr. Markin of Judson. The attendance of people was very large, running into the thousands. Dr. Ball was one of the pallbearers, the others being Dr. Collins, Connerly, White, Bloomer and Shafter, all of whom saw service in the World War. The burial was in charge of the Litsey-Price Post American Legion. The funeral was with military honors, a squad of ex-service men firing a salute. Dr. Price was the only man in Washington Township who lost his life in the World War.

Note: He was born Feb 23, 1888 and died Oct 30, 1918 in the base hospital (#78) in Toul France according to his findagrave.com memorial
