Hi Katherine, this is not my family, just did some looking for you.I appears that Felix was from TN not AR.He did like in AR with his brother Frank.There is a confusion on his birthdate between the 1900 census Nov 1883 and the WWI records showing Sept 1884.This might not be the same Felix, but it sure looks like it would be.I checked the Denver Co., CO site and they don't have a listing for the cemeteries there.
Notice on the WWII information for Roy, it shows his divorced with no children.On the 1937 city director, it shows she was married to Jennie.
