Mr. Price was born in Muncie, Indiana, April 13, 1862. Taking up the confectionery business while in his youth, he became an expert, continuing in that trade until his death.

In 1895 he moved to Denver, Col., and remained in that city for 13 years, moving back to Lansing in 1908. He has since lived in this city.
Mr. Price is survived by his widow, Mrs. Minnie P. Price, a son, Donald A. Price, and a daughter, Isadore M. Price and his mother, Mrs. Minerva Price, of Portland, Ore.
