What is the policy of the library for obtaining an obit?
In lieu of one......
Alfred went by his middle name Leon.He is the s/o Clyde and Myrtle [PIRKLE] SCHELLENER/SCHELLINGER.Clyde was a coalminer and Myrtle was an Ins Agt [1930 Randolph Co IL].
They remained in IL, but Leon was in St Louis 1940 working in an ice cream factory.1944 St Louis Directory lists Alfred in US Army, wife Opal M, working Gaylord's Box Factory.I have no way of knowing if there were any ch of this union.
Several articles about his widow, Opal, 21, being attacked with a knife [stabbed 3x] just a couple of months aft his death.
