Funeral Services for William Cunningham Held at Mendon— Mendon, Utah September 15th, Funeral services for William Cunningham who died recently at Provo were held in the Mendon ward chapel Sunday at two p.m. Counselor Elmer J. Hancock conducted the exercises. The choir sang, "I Need Thee Every Hour." Prayer was offered by John D. Baker. The choir then sang, "Truth Reflects Upon Our Senses." William I. Sorensen told of knowing Brother Cunningham for a long time. Mr. Sorensen said Brother Cunningham had held many positions both civic and religious and could always be depended upon. He also told of the one desire of the deceased that he had and that was to be buried in Mendon and he was glad this desire was being carried out. Mormon D. Bird, a former bishop of Mendon said he had known William Cunningham all his life. When he became bishop he learned that Brother Cunningham was working in the Petersboro Sunday School, then a branch of the Mendon ward. He also found him in the line of his duty. The speaker told of Brother Cunningham accepting the gospel in his native country and how he came here as a pioneer of this part of the country, Bishop Bird said that Brother Cunningham had some peculiarities but it was through these that we could overlook each others faults. Said we should look for the good in all men. Bishop Benson of Logan said death is a blessing when life becomes unbearable— the only relief that God can give is death. He spoke of death certainly being a blessing at this time. He also said we should honor those who "built the bridges and killed the snakes." In his dealings with Brother Cunningham he could confirm the expressions of the previous speakers. A vocal duet was rendered by Julia Muir and John O. Hughes "Unanswered Yet." Bishop B.P. Hansen of Brigham City then told of his acquaintance with William Cunningham while living with his daughter Mrs. LeGrand Colby. He knew him to be faithful in all he was able to do. Said he was a faithful tithe payer. Bishop Hanson told of the modern scientists trying to defeat the belief in a dual being. There are many things such as the radio and electricity that cannot be explained but we walk by faith. We have faith in God and it was the speaker's firm conviction that the body is a dual being and when we die our spirit goes back to God. Brother John H. Anderson, a former bishop of Mendon said, He had known Brother Cunningham for forty years. He said he know him to be a straightforward and honest man. He also confirmed the belief of a dual being and told a story of the father of President Heber J. Grant, how his spirit left his body on two occasions and went to the spirit world and how he disliked leaving that beautiful place and his loved ones to come back to this earth. Bishop Anderson said Brother Cunningham was always concerned over the welfare of of his children and hoped they would be faithful to the cause that he had left everything in his native country for. Remarks were made by Counselor Elmer J. Hancock. He thanked all who in any way had rendered assistance. The choir sang "Beautiful Isle of Somewhere." Closing prayer by John O. Hughes. The grave at the cemetery was dedicated by William Merrill of Brigham City. The floral offerings were profuse. ~The Journal, September 15th, 1927, page 6.
