Earl R. Anglin
Earl Russell Anglin was born December 15, 1919 in Deepwater to Samuel and Mary Ann Poe Anglin. He passed away April 4 at Sac-Osage Hospital in Osceola.
Earl moved with his family at an early age to the Osceola area. He attended school in Osceola and was a 1939 graduate of Osceola High school.
He entered the United States Army in October of 1941 and served overseas, receiving three Bronze Stars.
After returning from the war, Earl began working for R.A. Bledsoe as a plumber, an occupation which he continued until shortly before his death.
"Moe" as he was known, had a wealth of knowledge about the systems, homes and businesses in and around Osceola. He was the kind of person people felt comfortable leaving to do the job, knowing it would be done right. He was fair with everyone and even after he tried to retire he was so in demand and anxious to help. He will be sadly missed by many.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Samuel and Mary; two brothers, Jack and Everett Anglin and one sister Beulah Akers.
Earl is survived by one brother, Roy Anglin of Pleasant Hill, MO; two sisters, Mrs. Sylvia Gillespie and Mrs. Nellie Shoemaker, both of Clinton, nieces, nephews, other relatives and many friends.
Funeral services were Friday, April 7, 2 p.m. at the Sheldon-Goodrich Chapel with Rev. Mary Biesemeyer officiating.

Casketbearers were Flavil Baxter, Brett Shelby, Buster Gillespie, Robert Gillespie, Walter Behee, Bernard Cone, Randy Shulce, Charles Kincaid.
