Crash Fatal to Erich Boriack

From all evidence available, there is probably a truck somewhere whose driver is unaware that he was involved in the traffic death of Erich Willie Boriack, 52, former Schulenburg Ford dealer, on Interstate 10 east of Weimar the night of Dec 11.
Highway patrolman Alton Adcock drew that conclusion after viewing the car Mr. Boriack was driving, finding pieces of the car and broken glass, and tracing its semi-circular path across both the west and eastbound lanes of Interstate 10.
The point of the crash was placed by Mr. Adcock at 6.5 miles east of Weimar, between the Hattermann Lane overpass and the next one a short distance toward Weimar. Mr. Boriack appeared to be dead when an eyewitness reached his car.

Son-In-Law's Car

The car belonged to Mr. Boriack's son-in-law, James Edward Dahse of Weimar, who is on military duty at Abiline. Mr. Boriack, whose home was Portersville, Calif., had flown to Abiline, visited with the Dahses, borrowed Mr. Dahse's car to visit his son Clinton in Houston, and was returning to Abiline.
Funeral services were held Saturday at Waco. He is a native of that area.
He is survived by his wife, the son and daughter, one grandchild, Dawn Dahse, and several brothers and sisters. (Body was later interred in Weimar Masonic Cemetery).

Erich was the son of T. and Anna (Schkade) Boriack. He married Adela C. Wolf on 28 Dec 1938.
