Following obituary for Samuel Paul Maxwell:

PAUL MAXWELL IS CALLED AT RIALTO
Funeral Services Will Be Held From Methodist Church Tuesday
(Special Staff Correspondence)
RIALTO, Feb. 6. Paul Maxwell, well-known young man in Rialto and a leader in the church and social life of the community, died just as the morning lights were breaking today. The end was not unexpected, but marked, by an evidence of his constant, faith, for calling his wife to his bedside, he exclaimed: "O, dearie, it is heaven and the angels are all about." and that with his final breath. The end came at the home or his father-in-law, Frank Ferguson.
Funeral service will be from the Methodist church Tuesday afternoon at 2 o'clock, Rev. Maynard W. Beckwith officiating. Juhlin & Stephens are in charge.
Paul Maxwell was born in Sidney, O., Dec. 5, 1894, and was thus 26 years of age. He came to California in 1904 and to Rialto in 1914. Before that time he had joined the Methodist church and transferred his membership here upon making this his home. He married Miss Pearl Ferguson June 21, 1918, and six days later went into limited army service, his health having made it impossible for him to enlist when he had volunteered earlier. He returned from the army in February, 1919, and has since that time made his home here. Besides his widow, he is survived by his parents, Mr. and Mrs. B. W. Maxwell, of Rialto, and a sister, Mrs. Ralph Fletcher, and his grandfather, Samuel Maxwell, the latter two living in Long Beach.
Social Postponed Because of the death of Paul Maxwell, the Epworth League Valentine social, which was to have been held Monday evening, is indefinitely postponed.

*************************
LAST RITES RIALTO, Feb. 8. Last service for Paul Maxwell was held this afternoon from the First Methodist Church, the friends who gathered to pay the last tribute of love and respect filling the large auditorium. Rev. Maynard W. Beckwith spoke very tenderly of the high Christian character of Paul Maxwell, saying that he loved not money nor the things of the world but his Savior best. That here he had residence, as do we all, but "over there" it is home and because of his loving faithfulness Paul was given a glimpse of heaven while just on the border land. A very beautiful and touching poem composed by Paul's mother was read, bringing tears to all eyes. Quartet composed of Mrs. Wesley Frisbie, C. E. Tibbot, Mrs. Pearl Tolle and Clarence Tibbot sang very softly and with tender expression "He Knows," "There's a Light In the Valley," and in closing, "Beautiful Isle of Somewhere." The flowers were of exceptional beauty and so many that it would seem that it would seem as if every one tried thus to express their love for Paul and sympathy for the bereaved ones. From the Epworth League came a Maltese cross of pure white blossoms; from the young people's class of the Methodist Sunday school a beautiful pillow; other lovely floral pieces being from the Citizens' National Bank, the Rialto Woman's Club, the Methodist Sunday school, the American Legion, the Berean class, beside many individual tributes. Those who acted as pallbearers were Warren Frisbie, Wesley Frisbie, Ben Coleman, Edward Burrington, Will Trapp and Albert Bemis, all being members of the American Legion. Interment was made in the Rialto cemetery besides Paul's younger brother, Robert, who passed away about one year ago. Juhlin & Stephens were in charge.
