After a long life of service, Dr. L. C. Andrews passed away, Monday, June 29, 1931, at his home in Pitcher, aged 78 years, leaving for miles around a host of friends to remember him.
Dr. Andrews was graduated from the University of New York in 1880 and started practicing medicine in Venice Center, N.Y.
He was married in March of that year to Esther E. DeGroff. A son, George, was born to them who survives his father. After seven years as physician in Venice Center, Dr. Andrews came to Picher. His wife died here in 1904 and 1905, he married Florence Blackman of North Pitcher, who has tenderly cared for him thru his long illness.
For 44 years he worked unremittingly caring for the people in Pitcher and Taylor townships. He traveled over the hills uncomplainingly at all hours in all weather, whenever a call came.
Besides carrying on the duties of his profession and those of health officer, Dr. Andrews was an active member of the Congregational church for about 30 years. He also belonged to the Masonic Lodge at Cincinnatus for over 30 years.
He had been in poor health for the past 3 years and had been unable to practice for the last six months.
Our community will feel his passing deeply. There are but few families in the township who have not at some time or other called on Dr. Andrews for medical attention. And his good-humored willingness to help won him the friendship of all his patients.
Much sympathy is extended his bereaved family. Besides Mrs. Andrews, his son George, and four grandchildren, he is survived by a brother, Adelbert H. Andrews of Auburn, and five nieces and two nephews.
The funeral will be held in the Congregational church, Wednesday afternoon, with Rev. McNinch officiating. Burial is to be made in Pitcher cemetery.
