Rev. Wm. B. Kline Dies In California

Word was received in Blair last week of the death of the Rev. William B. Kline on Thursday, Feb. 25, at Whittier, Calif.

Rev. Kline served as pastor in the Blair Congregational Church from 1951 until 1953. Because of his health, he resigned and went to California to be near his children, who lived there. While in Blair, he endeared himself to all of the community, as well as to the members of his congregation. He was especially well known for his leadership in youth work. He served at a number of churches in Nebraska before coming to Blair. After moving to California, he regained sufficient health to do further church work there.

Mr. and Mrs. Kline have resided at 11491 E. Bradhurst St. in Whittier during the past few years.
