Illinois State Journal, Thursday, 3/18/1943, page 2. Death certificate #0000286. Illinois statewide online death index says he died in Springfield, Illinois. IRAD doesn't have it because it's too recent. I'd have to go to the Illinois State Archives in person or request it through the county which is more expensive. He required ambulance service on May 9, 1937. Cost for this was $3. He again required it on March 10, 1943. That cost was $5. This time it was to St. John's Hospital.
