WILLIAM S. REARICK

JOINS MAJORITY

Old Resident Leave Cherished Heritage of Kindness

and Good Cheer.

July 29, 1935



Smiling through, William Sherman Rearick laid down his burden early Monday morning, July 29th. With a humorous greeting on his lips for many friends and acquaintances who will sadly miss this good neighbor, Mr. Rearick had passed a year during which physical infirmities caused him great suffering at times, but his unfailing smile and pleasant word will be remembered as the essential part of the record that will be cherished by those who knew him best.

Funeral services for Mr. Rearick were held Wednesday afternoon at the Methodist church, where many gathered to pay a tribute of affectionate regard and high esteem to the memory of this old resident. The Rev. W. H. Bell officiated and interment was made in Salt River cemetery.

William Sherman Rearick was a native of Pennsylvania. Born December 27, 1863, he was nearly 72 years old. He was married February 24, 1887 in Fremont, Ohio, to Anna Loretta Divelbiss. To this union were born three daughters and one son, who survive him. They are: Mrs. Alvin Hafer and Mrs. Daisy Hafer, both of Dayton, Ohio; Robert Rearick of Alma, and Mrs. F. C. Baughman of Shepherd. A daughter, Martha Jane, died in infancy.

Mrs. Rearick died January 22, 1922 and on November 24 he resumed his home ties through a union with Nancy Vining Gilmore, daughter of J. Jay Vining, that was solemnized at the Fred Walton home. Surviving with the widow, the children named and 14 grandchildren, are two sisters and a brother, Mrs. Hattie Schell and Mrs. Myrtle Berger, both of Fremont, Ohio and Jesse Rearick of Mt. Vernon, Ohio.

Mr. Rearick had lived in Michigan for about 30 years. Up until about 17 years ago he conducted farms southwest of Shepherd, on which he resided. Thirteen years ago he moved to this village to embark in the filling station business at Salt River corners with which he had since been identified. Since the time of his marriage, nearly nine years ago, he had resided in the home where his death occurred Monday, due to a complication of diseases.

Mr. Rearick's familiar figure and his characteristic word of cheer will be missed by not a few who will remember his example as a lesson in fortitude and self-effacement.
