Norwalk Sailor Dead at Great Lakes of Influenza
NORWALK, Sept. 25. (Special) – Spanish influenza has claimed its first sailor victim from Norwalk according to word received here today that Stephen Cifatte, candidate in the naval aviation school, succumbed in the base hospital at Great Lakes, Illinois yesterday. It was just two months ago today that Cifatte left home, and it was a severe shock to his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Felix Cifatte, because the last word received from him, in a letter last Thursday, indicated he was in the best of health and spirits.
Cadet Candidate Cifatte is buried at St. Mary’s Cemetery, Norwalk; South Side.
