The tragedy occurred on Highway 96, five miles west of Pueblo, at 4pm. Mr. Mullings was employed as an oil transport driver for the Orential Refinery. He was crushed to death and his baby daughter was drowned in oil after the truck went out of control on a curve and turned over in a shallow pit at the side of the road.
Young Mullings was born in Alamosa, Jun 21, 1926, and was reared here. He was a veteran of WWII, and a former member of Dickey-Springer Post No. 113 of the American Legion.
He is survived by his wife, the former Viola Puliciani; a daughter Diana, 7; his father, Louis G Mullins; two sisters, Mrs. Verna Martin, and Mrs. Ellen Shezze; and other relatives.
