Sherwood Journal March 27,1914
Prominent Resident of Mulloy Passes Away
"In perfect health,we are in the precense of death!" No words have been more 
deeply impressed upon the writers mind recently than those qouted above.Less 
than two months ago we had among us Percy Bonk,as he was familiarly known by 
his many friends,apparently in good health,robust of body and strong of 
mind,but,alas! today he sleeps in a new made grave in the Tualatin 
cemetary,where his remains were interred last Sunday.
Percy numbered his friends by the score.He was a kind husband,a good father 
and an ideal neighbor.Always jolly and entertaining with jokes and dialect 
mimickery,no one could be sad of heart in his presence.
Herman P Bonk was born in Germany December 18,1877,coming to the United States 
with his parents in 1881.
He resided in Oregon about ten years.Mr Bonk was married to Miss Ethel 
Warmelsdorff Feb.4,1906.One child is the result of this union,a 
son ,Freddie,age five years.
Mr Bonk died at Good Samaritan Hospital,Portland,march 20,1014,of Brights 
Disease,aged 36 years,3 months,and 2 days.he leaves a wife and one son who 
reside at Mullot,and a father,mother,two brothers,and two sisters who live at 
Buffalo,Minnesota.-Contributed
