William Signall, who enlisted in the medical department at Leavenworth, Kansas, some time ago got a leave of
absence to come home New Years to visit with his brother, Francis, who was home from the Great Lakes Naval Base.
Audubon County Journal, Exira, January 10, 1918
His early years were spent at Gray, Iowa where he attended school. During World War I he served in the United States Army. For many years he operated a barber shop at Royal, Iowa, retiring in 1956 to Iowa City. Since 1971, he has resided in Sutherland, Iowa.
On November 22, 1927, he was united in marriage to Eunice Cooper at Gray, Iowa. They became the parents of two children.
He was a member of the Methodist Church and the American Legion.

Survivors include his wife, Eunice, 1 son, Robert of Dallas, Texas; and 1 daughter, Adeline (Mrs. Kenneth Steuck) of Spirit Lake, Iowa; 4 grandchildren, 1 sister, Olive Dozler of Carroll, Iowa; other relatives and many friends.
I'm occasionally adding the actual scanned image of the obituary I make using my VERY expensive - large commercial scanner,
and/or also other articles about the deceased person that were published in the Manning Monitor.
I want to also comment about people who are taking my obituaries, pictures, and/or other articles about a person/family and posting them on other websites.
You do NOT have permission or the right to do this - you are stealing my historical work.
Buy your own scanning equipment, pay for memberships to other commercial websites,
and spend decades working on your local history like I have - then you'll understand why I'm making these comments!
Thank you for your attention to this matter - Dave Kusel
