Death Benefit Delays Rites
There was considerable mixup this week in the death and funeral rites of Albert E. Chase, Goodwill Industries employee, of 148 West Forty-sixth street. But it was all straightened out legally and burial services were held Thursday at Forrest Lawn Memorial park following a few days' of confusion when it appeared Chase's funeral might be delayed indefinitely. Chase, Goodwill Industries worker since October, 1948, died on Friday, July 6, of a heart attack. His former wife and children could not be located. A sister, Mrs. Grace Rosener of San Diego, was notified, and she told Goodwill Industries that Chase had signed a death benefit policy, allocating a part of his salary to it. He had named as beneficiary Henry Firtch, a friend, formerly of 1464½ Fairbanks place, but who could not be located either. After searching fruitlessly for Firtch several days, attorneys for Goodwill and for Mrs. Roesner said the death-benefit money might safely be allocated to Chase's sister to pay for his burial expenses. The funeral then was held Thursday, but Goodwill officials still are looking for Firth so
they can explain what happened.
