Dancy at Funeral services were held Reddies River Baptist church Monday morning at 11 o’clock for Ira Gilbert Dancy, who died at a Veteran’s Hospital at Johnson City, Tenn. 'The services were con ducted b|y Rev. J. W. Luke. Pallbearers were" members of the American Legion Post 125. u. S. district court today W. C. Greer, W. M. McNeill, Otto vlnlatinn of fee ree- Whittington, Odell Whittington, Ooyd Blledge, and R. M. Yale. Honorary pallbearers were C. B. Eller. Lattie Welch, Noah Harris. Clyde Harris, Sanford Mastin and Will Brown. Ira Gilbert Dancy was born June 24, 1891. Died March 9, 1940. Age 48 years, 8 months and 15 days. He is survived by his wife, Mrs. Ella Phillips Dancy, and six children. Pansy, Gilbert, Mary Katherine, Phillip, Norman and Joyce. Also surviving are his fath er and mother, Mr. and Mrs. Nor man Dancy; three brothers and one sister: E. L., O. G., and Clyde, of Fayette county. West Virginia; and .Miss Annie Dancy, of North Wilkesboro; two brothers pre ceded him in death. Ira Dancy enlisted in the U. S. Navy and served a number of years in peace times. He was hon orably discharged from the Navy, and returned home. Very soon after he got out of the Navy, the United States went to war. He again enlisted In the Army and served until the endjif the _War. Thus giving a large part of’his life in the service of his country, and this service he rendered to his country caused him to suffer much pain and agony and finally was the cause of his death. I would like to mention a few words in regard to his brothers who also gave their lives for our country. His oldest brother, who had many years of service in the Navy, was still in the Navy at the outbreak of the War. He was on the ‘‘Collier” (Cyclops) that left .American port bound for South America. This ship and the crew were never heard from. It has been a great mystery as to what became of this ship and its crew. Many bplieved that the ship was sunk by a German submarine or a mine. I would like to say a few words about his father, Mr. Norman Dancy. He gave three sons to the service and they are all dead. I think he should receive the re spect and admiration of all the people of North Carolina and es pecially Wilkes County, and I doubt if there is another father that gave so many sons that lib erty and Democracy should not perish from the earth. Our hearts are saddened at the passing of this fine soldier and citizen. He was a good work er, and prov'jer for his family, and he will be greatly missed by them. The World War veterans are answering the roll-call at the rate of 112 a day. At this rate it won’t be long until the majority have passed to the great beyond. W. B. McNEILL.
