George Gillick Gorman was born in Smith Grove, Warren county, Kentucky, December 19, 1870.  He died at his home in Howard, Kansas December 3, 1927.

He came with his parents to Kansas in the fall of 1873, settling near Piedmont where he lived and grew to manhood, living in this community until he moved to Howard a few years ago.

He was united in marriage to Miss Abbey Munsinger, October 19, 1898, and to this union were born two children, Frances Eleanor and George Glenn, Frances Eleanor dying in infancy.

He leaves his wife and small son of six, aged mother of Severy, Kansas, four sisters, Miss Eliza of Severy, Kansas, Mrs. J. S. Martin of Muscotah, Kansas, Mrs. R. J.  Jones of Kansas City, Mo.,  Mrs. E. W. Haas of Garden City, Kansas and one brother J. H. Gorman of Coldwater, Kansas, several nieces and nephews, besides a host of friends to mourn his loss, his father and two brothers preceeded him.

Mr. Gorman united with the Howard Christian church in tthe year 1919, in which he remained a faithful member until his death.

He had been a great sufferer for the past two years, yet was a remarkable, courageous and hopeful sufferer, always having a smile for everyone of unselfish devotion to his Master.  His place at church was filled, even when he was suffering from his affliction, the thought not of self.  His home was a happy one.  His devotion to his companion was unexcelled. He will be missed on every side.

There were many willing hands and loving hearts to minister unto his wants during his sickness and his faithful wife, relatives, pastor and friends, did all that earthly power could do to stay the relentless hand of death, but all in vain.

Funeral services were held at the Howard Christian church, Sunday afternoon, conducted by Brother Kerr of Moline, Kansas.  Burial in the Piedmont cemetery.
