~32812t WALTER HARLEY EMERY b. 21 March 1924 south Kingston, Caldwell, Missouri, d. 23 August 1943 Death Certif. #27822 buried 27 August 1943 Kingston Cemetery Kingston, Caldwell, Missouri

Walter Harley Emery, the youngest son of Benjamin Emery and Myrtle Mae Emery, was born South of Kingston, on March 31, 1924, and came to his untimely death on August 23, 1943, at the age of 19 years, 4 months and 23 days.
He was schooled and reared to young manhood in the Kingston community and grew in people's hearts so that his remarkable good health and manly strength made his tragic death so shocking to the community.
At the age of 15, his pal and mother, Myrtle Mae Emery, preceded him in death, thus he shared more of the burden with his father, brother and young sisters, in keeping their home. He was a true soldier of the home front. One on whose efforts will be sadly missed in the community. Harley always did more than his part cheerfully and willingly with a smile.
He leaves to mourn his passing, his father, brother Beryl Franklin Emery, third class seaman of the United States Navy; sisters, Emma Katherine, Nelda Mae and Opal Irene Emery of the home; a devoted grandmother, Mrs. Emma Coshow; several aunts, uncles, cousins and other relatives besides a host of friends numbered by all who knew him.
The funeral service was held from the Christian Church at Kingston Friday, August 27th, at 2:30p conducted by Rev. James Heath. The body was laid to rest in the Kingston Cemetery, under the direction of Clarks
