WILLIAM OLIVER CARTER
William Oliver Carter passed, March 28th, 1934, of age sixty-four years. He was born in Rome, Illinois, November 1st, 1870, and came to Klickitat county, Washington, at about the age of twenty-one, where he resided most of his life, settling first on the Big Klickitat.
His parents were William and Laura Carter, early pioneers of Klickitat county and of Goldendale. Both parents are now deceased and this son was the last of the family with the exception of a foster sister, Mrs. Charles Frazier, of Washougal, Wn.
On April 7th, 1895, Mr. Carter has united in marriage to Laura VanHoy of Goldendale, Wash. This seventh of April, 1934, would have marked the thirty-ninth anniversary of their happy married life. Four children were born to this union; Mrs. Florence Overly, Goldendale; Mrs. Jennie Benson, a Vancouver, Wash.; Norman Oliver Carter, deceased; William E. Carter, Wishram, Wash. There are four grandchildren.
His widow and children mourn the loss of a most kind husband and father.
Mr. Carter was in the employ of the S.P. & S. railway continually since 1917. He lived with his family in Vancouver, Washington, for a period of ten years and then moved to Wishram, Washington, where they have lived for the past nine years. In every place Mr. Carter has lived he leaves a host of friends.
Mr. Carter was a member of the Modern Woodman. In 1933 he received a reward pin for twenty-five years of continuous membership. He was also a member of the Railway Association.
His absence from earth will be keenly felt by his widow and children, relatives, and friends for he was ever a kind husband and father, a kindly neighbor, a loyal friend, and a respected and helpful citizen.
His courageous, cheerful spirit; his kindly humor, worked for the betterment of the lives he lived among. In the last home-going, sympathy is extended to the loved ones, the relatives and friends left to mourn. May Faith believe through the clouds of sorrow that beyond the veil there is a bright home where “They do rest from their labors and their works do follow them.â€
Funeral services were held from the Chapman Chapel, Friday, March 30th, with Rev. R.H. Allen officiating, interment following in the I.O.O.F. cemetery.
