W. W. Bomar Passed Away on Monday Morning
Death came to Walter W. Bomar Monday morning at 10:15 o'clock at the Paris Sanitarium, where he had been for several weeks, after suffering a partial stroke of paralysis.
For several years the strength of this stalwart citizen had been on the decline. Every medical attention was given in an effort to restore his health and the tireless nursing of Mrs. Bomar and Foster aided much to his relief.
Walter, as everyone here knew him and called him, was a man very large in stature, but his heart was even larger than the body which held it. When a needy person applied to him for help, he never refused, and was most generous in the giving of his means. He was jovial and always had a pleasant word to share with his many friends.
Mr. Bomar was born at Spartanburg, S.C., May 24, 1880, and was 57 years of age.
He was a son of Mr. and Mrs. L. L. Bomar, deceased, and at the age of one year came to Texas with his parents, settling at Wolfe City.
On February 22, 1903, he was married to Miss Lizzie Shields of Ladonia, and in 1918 Mr. and Mrs. Bomar came to Honey Grove.
During his residence here he was engaged in buying cotton, the ginning business and farming on a large scale. He was a successful businessman, and will be greatly missed. He was an active member of the Chamber of Commerce, and was always present at the meetings of the organization until failing health kept him away. He was also a member of Hella Temple Shrine, Dallas, and a Scottish Rite Mason.
Surviving are his wife; two brothers, Foster C. Bomar, Honey Grove, and H. B. Bomar, Corsicana, and a sister, Mrs. Nora Meaders, Ballinger.
The last rites were held at the late home Tuesday afternoon at 3 o'clock, conducted by Rev. T. J. Watts, Rev. B. B. Hall and Rev. H. C. Akers, after which the body was laid to rest in Oakwood Cemetery.
The Signal-Citizen joins with the large circle of friends in extending heartfelt sympathy to those who mourn his passing.
