Obituary: Iberia Sentinel, July 24, 1908

The funeral of Frederic Lombar who died at San Angelo, Texas early Sunday Morning was held at the former Lombar home, the Brown residence, Wednesday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock. The funeral service at the residence was conducted by Rev. Dunn, pastor of the Congregational Church at Lebanon after which the body was taken in charge by Masons, who preceded the funeral procession to the cemetery where the usual Masonic honors were paid to the dead.

It is with the deepest sorrow that we chronicle the death of such a brilliant and promising life, fraught with possibility and responsibility, and again we stop to wonder at the mysteries of providence.

After completing his preparatory education Mr. Lombar entered the Law Department of Washington University from which school he graduated with honors in 1895. He entered immediately upon the practice of his profession in this, his home county, and his success was phenomenal. Twice elected prosecuting attorney he was chosen to represent the county in the 41st general assembly and was one of the prominent figures of that session of Missouri's legislature. And his death brings to a sudden end the career of one of the strongest characters known to the legal and political history of Miller County.

Like every commanding figure he had zealous supporters and earnest opponents, but those who differed from him were as ready as his warmest friends to concede to him the possession of elements of leadership to an extraordinary degree.

He was deliberate in action, firm in conviction and ever ready to accept responsibility for what he did. The positive influence exerted on those who became associated with manifested by the large number of friends who came many miles to pay a last tribute of respect to one of Miller County's greatest young men.

Mr. Lombar was the son of the late Hon. Frank E. Lombar, a pioneer of this section of Missouri and one of its most honored and beloved citizens. There is left to mourn his death the wife, Mrs. Lalla Lombar and little daughter Catherine, the mother, Mary E. Lombar, the sister, Mrs. Minnie Wiggenhorn and the brother, Frank D. Lombar, of of whom were present at the funeral.

Mr. Lombar was a member of the Masonic order at this place, under whose auspices the funeral was had, and the Benevolent and Protective order of Elks at Jefferson City.
