Eric Sloane died on this day in 1985, on the stree

Eric Sloane died on this day in 1985, on the streets of the city in which he was born. His memorial service bulletin reveals a lot about the man - it is his illustration for the church on the cover, he was eulogized by David Armstrong, members of the Warren Volunteer Fire Company served as the ushers, and the parting hymn was “O Beautiful For Spacious Skies”. May he rest in peace.

“I hope that I might be quoted someday as having said: ‘The only value of age is that it gave time for someone to have done something worthwhile.’”
- Eric Sloane
