Final Rites For A. C. Timothy Held Tuesday

Funeral services for Aaron C. Timothy, father of Mrs. Kenneth Peters of Green River, were held Tuesday afternoon at 2 o'clock at the LDS Chapel with Bishop Robert Walker of the first ward officiating.

Mr. Timothy, the son of Hyrum and Rosella Clark Timothy, had come to Green River about six months ago to make his home with his daughter, Mrs. Peters, and passed away in his sleep early Saturday morning at the Peters home. He was born Dec. 25, 1890 at Lehi, Utah, and was married to Lita Banta Nov. 30, 1911, at Greeley, Colo. She preceded him in death Nov. 10, 1941.

The couple moved to Green River in 1922 where Mr. Timothy was employed by the Union Pacific Railroad as a carman until his retirement four years ago. He had lived at Ogden for the past two and one-half years. He was a member of the Eagles Lodge, Carmen's Union and of the LDS church.

While he and his wife lived at Green River, the couple were active in civic and community affairs and because of their pleasing personalities and effervescent spirit they were called upon many times for community service.

Bishop Lee B. Fenton gave the address of consolation at the services; Mrs. Fred Baker and Mrs. Robert Walker sang a duet "In The Garden"; Mrs. Frank Stevens a vocal solo, "The End of a Perfect Day," while the invocation was given by Erwin Vehar and the benediction was pronounced by Bishop Walker; Mrs. J. Marlowe Taylor at the organ gave the prelude and postlude and accompanied the musical renditions. A. D. Francom dedicated the grave at the Riverview cemetery. The Francom Mortuary was in charge of arrangements.

Beside his daughter Mrs. Peters, Mr. Timothy is survived by a son, William C. Timothy of Westminister, Calif.; five grandchildren; two great-grandchildren; six brothers, Verge and Oral of Greeley, Colo., Eldred of Rawlins, Wheeler of Lehi and Greeley, and Glen Timothy of Salt Lake City.

Active pallbearers were Steve Nitse, Carl Myers, Leonard Stone, E. G. Proctor, Richard Bussart and Bert Smith; honorary pallbearers were William Delaney, Halvor Hermansen, Ed McBride, Thomas Jones, Charles Lenhart, Lee Switzer, James Davis, Sr., George Widdop, Clarence Clark and P. B. Peterson. Relatives from out of town who were in Green River for the funeral services include the son, William Timothy; Oral Timothy of Greeley, Mr. and Mrs. D. W. Timothy of Lehi and Mr. and Mrs. Eldred Timothy of Rawlins.
