OLIVER W. NASH PASSES AWAY AT HOME HERE FRI.
Laid at Rest With Odd Fellow Honors Sunday

O. W. Nash, a well known and highly respected resident of this city for many years, passed away at his home in Clare, Friday of last week, following several months of illness.

Oliver W. Nash was born in Taylor County, Iowa, Jan. 13, 1879. At an early day he moved to Yuma County, Colorado, with his parents, and aided them in establishing a home in that frontier country. Before reaching his majority, he married Miss Edna Maude Andrews, November 4, 1900, and to them were born two sons, Raymond O. and Franklin A. Nash.

Mr. Nash lived in Colorado with his family until August, 1920. He prepared himself for the teaching profession which he followed for a period of ten years and later became interested in real estate and ranching.

In 1920 he brought his family to Michigan where he has remained to finish out his life. He accepted a teaching position in Clare county and after living in Marion and Harrison finally settled in Clare.

Wherever Mr. Nash has lived he has always taken a very active part in the church and community. He has served many years in. the capacity of Sunday School Superintendent, both in Colorado and Michigan and was Bible Class teacher and a member of the Church Board of the Clare Methodist Church for many years. He was an active member of the Odd Fellow lodge until the malady which took him from this life finally confined him to his residence at 205 E. Seventh St.

Mr. Nash departed this life June 30, 1944. He leaves to mourn him, his widow, Mrs. Oliver W. Nash; Franklin A. Nash, a son, of Clare, and Raymond O. Nash, a son who lives at Flushing, Michigan, and Warren A. Sharp, a foster-son, somewhere in England or France.

Besides his immediate family, he leaves three brothers and two sisters; Wm. J. Nash, of Pasadena, Calif., A. B. Nash, of Hale, Colorado, Ernest Nash, of Independence, Mo., Mrs. Elda Helmick, of Canyon City, Colorado, and Mrs. Jessie Andrews, of Rocky Ford, Colorado.

Funeral services were held from the Methodist Church at 2:00 o'clock Sunday afternoon, with Rev. Chas. B. Hahn officiating and members of the Odd Fellow and Rebekah lodges attending in a body. Interment was made at Cherry Grove Cemetery with commitment services in charge of the Clare Odd Fellow lodge.
