William B. Izatt of Afton passed away at his home in Afton last Tuesday June 5th after several days of intense suffering. He was operated on last Friday for obstruction of the bowel and was found to have had bad cancer. It was seen that there was little hope for his recovery, so the doctor did what he could to relieve his suffering for the short time he would live. Practically all of his immediate family was present at the time of his death, except Mary and Marcella who were unable to get here. Mary arrived soon after his death and was present at the funeral.
Funeral services were held in the North ward church, Thursday at 10:00 a.m.

Singing "O My Father".
Bishop Osborne Low Sr., was the first speaker, who spoke of his boyhood acquaintance with Mr Izatt, and of his excellent character.

The next speaker was Philip Bott of Ogden, whom Mr Izatt has done much business with in recent years, having beren an agent for the company of John H. Bott and Sons, for many years. Mr Bott delivered an excellent talk which brought much comfort to the bereaved widow and family.

The benediction was offered by Bishop Heman Hyde.
After the services the body was taken to Thayne for burial, where it was laid beside two of Mr Izatt's sons who have preceded him to the grave.
