James Lester Worden obituary, 1918
from the New Jersey Courier 25 Oct 1918
Funeral services of James Lester Worden, who died at Pelham Bay naval training station of pneumonia on Oct. 15, were held at the residence of his parents, Mr. and Mrs. B.B. Worden, Forked River, on Friday, Oct. 18, at 3 p.m. and were conducted by Rev. O.W. Wright, which were largely attended. His robust health and bright future so suddenly cut off has come as a great shock and has cast a deep gloom over the entire neighborhood. He was a student at the Toms River high school and afterward a Rider-Moore Business school graduate in Trenton, where later he was employed by the Charles Schick hardware concern. For the past year he was employed by the Zee Zee Rubber Company. He registered June 5 last and early in July he enlisted in the naval reserves and was called to the colors in August.
