THE AUGUSTA HERALD. AUGUSTA, GA.
TRIBUTE OF PATIENT
To Memory of the Late J. B,
Corcoran
X B. Corcoran, who drowned
recently at the Plunkett-Wllkinson
bathing pond, was a great favorite
with the patients at Lenwood Hos
pital, where he served as secretary
of the Knights of Columbus and
In many other capacities. The fol
lowing tribute to his memory was
written by a Lcnwood\ "patient:”
"In the death of Mr. Corcoran
the patients of the Veterans’ Hos
pital No. 62, Augusta, Georgia,
felt a personal loss of a dear and
true friend who was always ready
with a kind word, a smiling face
and a helping hand to all alike.
He was noted forTils acts of kind
ness to all the patients, and he
proved by his actions that he was
always Interested In the disabled
ex-service men. Indeed, we feel
that the loss of this friend can
never be replaced here, and In the
years to o.me, the work that be
did here will always remain fresh
In the memories of all the
pltlent*.
"Mr. Corcoran was secretary of
the Knights of Columbus] physi
cal director and captain of our
baseball team. Every day he
made trlpa to the wards and dis
tributed cigarettes, chewing gum,'
candy, chewing tobacco, combs,
tooth brushes and a cheerful word
to all. Ho has been called to a
higher work but the good work
that It* did hero will never be
forgotten, and a true friend to the
disabled soldier. Would that It
were In our power to eulogize this
friend in a manner more fitting,
but the writer bf these lines feels
that his vocabulary Is ifot com
plete enough to do Justice to the
life work of Mr. Corcoran.
“Of this man It can be truly
said that he had no enemies. He
numbered his friends by his ac
quaintances, and his cheerful dis
position made for him a host of
friends who mourn his untimely
death. He is missed now, but In
the weeks to come and the years
to follow, we will miss “jack"
more and more. His smiling face
Is seen no more, kind words from
smiling Ups are heard no more,
hut In our memories are indelibly
.engraved the kind words that lie
lias spoketf to us, and when the
kind Father above writes FINISi
to this world of ours, we hope that
In the world to come we will clasp
once again the hand of our de
parted Buddy.”
