Ivan Christmas
Ivan "Jack" Christmas, 87, of Evansville, died Monday, July 23, 2001, at
Deaconess Hospital.
He retired from R & J. Refinery and had worked in oil production in Pike and
Gibson counties.
He was a member of North Park Baptist Church and the men's class, Scottish
Rite, Hadi Shrine, Eastern Star 451 and Oakland City Masonic Lodge.
Surviving are his wife of 50 years, Doris Lucille (Falls); three daughters,
Rosemary Stone of Belleville, Ill., Rebecca Lynn Malotte of Haubstadt, Ind.,
and Cassie Ann Keneipp of Newburgh; four grandchildren, Kimberly Smith,
Jacqueline and Nicholas Keneipp and Benjamin Malotte; and a
great-grandchild.

Cemetery in Oatsville, Ind.
Friends may call from 2 to 8 p.m. Thursday at the funeral home.
Memorial contributions may be made to Shriners Hospital for Children or the
Deaconess Cardiovascular Foundation Fund.
This finishes Texas, and have one for OK; will try to get remainder of OK
later. I know some are missing, but this is all that is in the index. Have
no other info on those with ? marks; help if you can. Also, if you have
1900 or other census year info, please post; especially 1900 as it will
save me from downloading these slow images. Thanks.
