FUNERAL SERVICES HELD HERE FRIDAY FOR WALTER CARVER

Masonic services were held here Friday for Walter L. CARVER, long time resident, who died the previous Sunday at his home in Los Angeles, California.

Funeral services were held the previous Wednesday at Immanuel Presbyterian church in Los Angeles. He was buried here beside his wife, who died a year ago.

Mr. CARVER had been in ill health for several years. He suffered a heart attack while visiting here earlier in the summer.

He was born in Castle Rock, Colorado and came to Steamboat with his brother, Don, and father, W. E. CARVER, and for many years they owned the electric light company here. After selling the light plant here Mr. CARVER moved to Craig where he resided for a number of years before moving to Los Angeles in 1942. He was employed as an electrician by the Los Angeles Times.

Mr. CARVER was a 1912 graduate of the University of Colorado where he studied electrical engineering. He was a member of Sigma Chi fraternity.

He was intensely interested in sports and after playing baseball at college was the mainstay of the Steamboat baseball team for many years.

He is survived by a son, William CARVER; a daughter, Mrs. Robert NOREN of Ojai, California; his mother, Mrs. Annie M. CARVER of Colorado Springs; a sister, Mrs. H. Clay MONSON of Steamboat, and two brothers, Norman of Colorado Springs and Will of Wilmington, Massachusetts, and a sister-in-law, Miss Nettie ANDERSON of Los Angeles.

Dr. E. A. Jackson was in charge of the Masonic service and Mrs. Marguerite See played appropriate music before and after the service.

Pallbearers were Thomas WILLIAMSON, Wesley POULSON, Ray MONSON, Frank DAUGHERTY, Mark SHEPHERD and William ALLEN.
