Stone Lake, Wis. Milton Conrad
Hurne, 88, formerly of Hornell, died on
March 9, 2007 at his home following
a lengthy illness.

Mr. Hurne was born on Sept. 10, 1918
in Hornell as the fifth of seven sons to
Samuel C. and Anna E. (Conrad) Hurne.
He was a 1936 graduate of Hornell High
School. On Jan. 20, 1940 he married
Angeline Greenfield, who predeceased
him on Dec. 23, 1967. On June 28, 1969,
in Bristol Springs, he married Grace
M. Lincoln, who survives.

Milton worked for Hornell Evening
ribune from 1937-1941 and Hornell
Industries until 1942. As an ordained
minister, Milton pastored Christian &
Missionary Alliance churches beginning
in Andover in 1942; then East Rochester,
Penn Yan, Geneva Bristol Springs and
finally returning as pastor in Andover
where he retired in 1974.

In addition to Grace, Milton is survived

Milton always enjoyed the outdoors. In his
youth, he loved to play football with the
neighborhood boys. In his later years, he
was an avid hiker and upon retirement to
Stone Lake, he loved boating and fishing.

Friends are invited to a celebration of
his home going with visitation from
10-11 a.m. Monday at the Andover
Christian & Missionary Alliance
hurch. The funeral service will be held
at 11 a.m. Monday at the church
mmediately following the visitation
with Pastor Timothy Young of Heritage
Baptist Church in Marion, officiating.
As the old Christian song Finally Home
states, just think of stepping on shore
and finding it heaven! Of touching a hand
and finding it Gods! Of breathing new air
and finding it celestial! Of waking up in
glory and finding it home! Burial will
follow in Rural Cemetery, Hornell.

Contributions in Miltons name may be
made to Andover C&MA, Heritage Baptist

John 14:1-3
Let not your heart be troubled:
 ye believe in God, believe also
 in me.  In my Father's house are
 many mansions: if it were not 
so, I would have told you.  I go
 to prepare a place for you.  And
 if I go and prepare a place for
 you, I will come again, and
 receive you unto myself; that
 where I am, there ye may be
 also.  John 14:1-3
