Notes
Milan and his wife Florence, and her father Ben Yates, were on vacation in the Ship & Anchor Motel in Springfield, Missouri on May 29, 1978, when carbon monoxide seeped into their room from the lack of a proper vent pipe to a new hot water tank that had just been installed. Milan and Mr. Yates both passed away and Florence survived. Not much else is known about Milan or his wife Florence. It appears that their home at the time was in Arizona.
