BROTHER OF CALHOUN WOMAN HAS HEART ATTACK

Curtis George Urban, a brother of Mrs. Keith Sackett of Ft. Calhoun, died suddenly Sunday at his home in South Omaha from what is believed to have been a heart attack. He was 71 years old. He lived at 2017 N Street in South Omaha.

Rev. and Mrs. Sackett had gone to his home during the afternoon to call upon him and found him dead in his home. Death had taken place early in the day, doctors believed. He had visited in Ft. Calhoun a number of times and was known to many of the Calhoun area.

He was never married. He is survived by his sister, Mrs. Frances Sackett and another sister who lives in Omaha. There are a number of nieces and nephews.

The deceased man had an avid interest in boys and Boy Scout work. He was a Scout Leader for a number of years and was one of the few Scout men in Nebraska who held the coveted Silver Beaver award.

Funeral services were held Wednesday morning and burial was made in the Laurel Hill Cemetery. Rev. Sackett conducted the services.
