Submitted by: Wanda Purcell

Services for Freeman S. "Mac" McKinstry were held Tuesday morning in the Scroggins Chapel in Cheyenne with Rev. Paul Jones, pastor of the Methodist church of this city preaching the sermon.

The Hammon Odd Fellows Lodge held graveside services at Chapel Hill cemetery, Strong City, Roger Mills County, Oklahoma.

He was born June 13, 1873 to Ozias and Phoebe J. McKinstry. He passed away at the Cheyenne hospital Sunday, July 12, 1959. He had been a resident of the hospital for the past few years.

Mr. McKinstry,"Mac" as he was known to his friends, was a very lovable character.

Active as long as his health would permit, he played golf as long as he was able to walk around the course.

In Odd Fellowship he knew practically every charge and could deliver any of them on short notice.

Hobart Stranhan, formerly of Hammon, now a resident of Wichita, Kansas, was his nephew.
