Shares headstone with his cousin, Robert Carver.
Two little boys, cousins who had been almost inseparable during all of their short lives, were the victims of a heart-breaking tragedy Monday evening, when Wesley and Bobby CARVER, the young sons of Mr. and Mrs. Donald L. CARVER and Mr. and Mrs. Walter L. CARVER, were crushed to death under a heavy timber. News of the death of these manly little fellows, who had spent all their lives in Steamboat and who were general favorites with all who knew them, cast a pall over the entire community.
The double funeral was held Wednesday afternoon from the Methodist church, where both Wesley and Bobby had been Sunday school scholars. The edifice was filled with sorrowing friends of the bereaved families,and there were great banks of flowers, the offerings of scores of sympathetic neighbors.
Wesley Irvine CARVER, the second son of Mr. and Mrs. Donald L. CARVER, was born November 1, 1914, in Stockton, California, and his is mourned by his parents and two brothers, Keene Leroy and Harold Richard.
Robert Anderson CARVER was born August 12, 1916, in Steamboat Springs, and was the older son of Mr.and Mrs. Walter L. CARVER, who have one other child, William Anderson CARVER. Both were highly intelligent children, of loving and sunny dispositions, and were universal favorites. Their fathers are the managers of the Steamboat Service Company, and have resided in Steamboat for the past eighteen years. The mothers were formally teachers in the Steamboat schools, and the two families are among the most prominent in the community. They have the heartfelt condolence of the entire community, beyond the power of words to express.
