Death Notes: Obituary - Connecticut Post, 9 Oct 2009: SILL - Davis Andrews Sill, age 87, husband of Gertrude Grace Sill of Southport, died peacefully on October 2nd. Proud of his Yankee heritage, his ancestors established Sill Town, now known as Old Lyme, in the eighteenth century and later Fort Sill, Oklahoma. Born in Orange, N.J., he grew up in Summit, N.J. and St. Louis, Mo. He attended St. Louis Country Day School, The Wooster School, and Wesleyan University. In 1942, while at Wesleyan University, he enlisted in the National Reserve Corps and was sent to Fort Wheeler, Ga. for basic training. Next stop was Camp Gordon, Ga. where he joined a Heavy Pontoon Battalion, specializing in building floating bridges, and became a "ninety day wonder," a Second Lieutenant. Shortly after, Lieutenant Sill was to board a passenger vessel bound for England. In some of Davis' memoirs he stated, "When the ship was leaving New York Harbor, no one was allowed on deck but 'Yours Truly.' It was about 6 am when the whistles blew and fifteen great liners backed out of their slips ---all painted dark grey---and hustled silently down river. They were all like giant ghosts. It was misty, and we all went down the river single file. As we got out of the river, we could see our escort destroyers in the distance. We never slowed down or made a sound. Finally, as we got further out, more ships joined us, and the battleship became our major managing vessel. We plowed through at about fifteen knots. There must have been thirty ships in the convoy. My quarters were excellent. I even had a house boy to take care of me---run my bath, shine my shoes---not bad! He was an ex-con! The officers' mess was interesting---silverware as long as your arm. I think they had forgotten there was a war on. After twelve days our ship was directed to Liverpool. We zigzagged our way into port. The grass was so green and beautiful! Here we disembarked and boarded trains for London." Sill arrived in London during the Blitz and moved to various sites in southern England to prepare projects for the invasion of Normandy. On D-Day +1 Sill landed on Omaha Beach with his unit and proceeded eastward building air fields and repairing bridges as the Allied Forces advanced. For his outstanding service, Lieutenant Sill was awarded the Croix de Guerre by General Charles de Gaulle in Paris on 18 August 1945, and later the Bronze Star by the United States Army. Davis Sill was employed in the textile business for many years and established Sill Fabrics in Southport in 1974. He lived with his family in Southport for more than 50 years and was active in local affairs. He was a talented craftsman and model builder. His outdoor model railroad, set within a Colonial village, was a neighborhood marvel. He loved to hike, ski, sail, swim, and golf both here and abroad and was a member of The Country Club of Fairfield. Survivors in addition to his wife Gertrude include Andrews Sill and his wife, Joana Miranda of Milwaukee, Wis., Lucinda Sill Morrison and her husband, David Morrison of Block Island, R.I.; grandsons, Jason and Alec Sill; and granddaughters, Phoebe and Natalie Morrison. After his retirement, Davis joined Habitat for Humanity in Bridgeport building housing for the needy. At Habitat he made many fine new friends and gave his life a new dimension. Contributions may be made in Davis' honor to Habitat for Humanity, 1470 Barnum Avenue, Bridgeport, CT 06610.

Death Notes: Obituary - New York Times, 22 Oct 1934: DR. F. M. ROOT DIES; CURBED MOSQUITO; Authority in Warfare Against Malaria and Yellow Fever Succumbs at 45. MADE STUDIES IN TROPICS Associate Professor at Johns Hopkins Led Expeditions to South America. // Special To The New York Times. // BALTIMORE, Oct 21. - Dr. Francis Metcalf Root, Associate Professor of Medical Entomology at the John Hopkins School of Hygiene and Public Health and the country's greatest authority on mosquitos, died this afternoon at the Johns Hopkins Hospital.
Although only 45 years of age, Dr. Root was recognized in scientific and medical circles throughout the world for the work he had done in identifying insects carrying malaria and yellow fever.
Nearly every year for the last fifteen years he had headed expeditions into the interior of South America and other tropical sections to study mosquitos and to devise methods of combating malaria and yellow fever at the source, instead of trying to exterminate all mosquitos, most of which are harmless.
Most of these expeditions were carried on under the sponsorship of the international health board of the Rockefeller Foundations, to which he was loaned by the school. In the Summer of 1922 he carried his research to the eastern shore of Maryland, after an epidemic of malaria there, to seek more effective methods of extermination. Most of his expeditions, however, were made into tropical counties.
Hospital officials today, in paying high tribute to Dr. Root's work, said that its results were mostly in laying the groundwork for further research work, which will eventually, it is hoped, stamp out all malaria and yellow fever.
One of the practical results of his activities, it is said, was in devising methods of identifying the larvae of mosquitos, by which it could be told whether the insects were bearers of yellow fever or malaria germs.
Dr. Root had written extensively for medical and scientific periodicals and had published papers on the results of his work. He was also managing editor of The American Journal of Hygiene.
He was a graduate of Oberlin College, where he was a captain in the Reserve Officers' Training Corps during the World War. He also held a Doctor of Philosophy degree from John Hopkins University. Besides his research, since 1919 he had taught classes in hygiene and public health at the university.
He is survived by his widow, the former Barbara Bradley, and one son, Vernon Root. The body will be taken to North Haven, Conn., the former home of Mrs. Root, for burial.

Death Notes: Obituary - Horan & McConaty: B. Mark Moore went home to his Lord and Savior on October 23, 2014 after an extended illness. He was 91 years old.
He was born and raised in Huntington, Indiana, and enrolled at Hanover College. His studies were interrupted by the beginning of World War II. Mark enlisted in the Navy Air Corps and became a pilot. He served aboard the aircraft carrier Midway, which was scheduled to participate in the invasion of Japan. The invasion was cancelled after two atomic bombs brought Japan's surrender. After his discharge from the Navy in 1945, Mark returned to school, enrolling in the college of business at Indiana University. After graduation in 1948 Mark was hired by Pontiac Motors as a district salesman. He moved Colorado Springs, Colorado, where he worked for a dealership and travelled through various western states. In 1952, while serving in the Naval Reserve, he was recalled to active duty during the Korean War. He spent two years as a flight instructor for new pilots, teaching meteorology and principles of aerodynamics.
During his time in Colorado Springs Mark's life was transformed forever when he made the decision to invite Jesus Christ into his life. He called it "the single most important moment of my life", and dedicated himself to going anywhere God called him.
He began to feel the call toward full-time ministry, and enrolled in San Anselmo Theological Seminary in San Francisco. While in seminary he met Nancy Jo Cook. They were married on March 10, 1956. Early in their marriage they worked in Ft. Lupton, Colorado at a migrant camp, where Mark was the youth director and Nancy was the camp nurse. Their family grew when Cindy Jane was born in September of 1957.
Mark and Nancy felt called to the international mission field, and in 1958 began their journey. After missionary training in New Jersey, they boarded a ship for Brazil. After a year of language training in Campinas, Brazil, during which Linda Jean was born in 1959, they were assigned to Rosario Oeste, Mato Grosso, deep in the interior of the Brazilian continent.
Mark's assignment was to pastor the growing church in Rosario, but also to be a remote pastor to 9 other congregations in small settlements that were only accessible by air. He would fly into the tiny jungle villages and conduct baptisms, communion, and marriages, and preach and lead music while accompanying the service on his accordion. Over the course of their time in Brazil, Mark piloted several small planes, including a Cessna 172, affectionately known by its call letters as Charlie Mike Hotel. In 1963 Debby was born, and Mark was forever outnumbered by the girls in his life.
After 10 years in Brazil, Mark and Nancy chose to return home because of the limited availability of schooling for the girls. Mark was called to be the assistant pastor of Faith Presbyterian Church in Aurora, Colorado. He began his ministry there on January 1, 1969, and served well and faithfully in many areas, including as coordinator and trainer for the Bethel Bible series, head of the deacons, and founder of several small group "Koinonias", including John II, which continues today, more than 50 years later! He served as chaplain and counselor for the Colorado amputee ski association, and loved skiing and whitewater rafting adventures with them.
Mark retired from Faith Church in 1985, but he and Nancy knew their ministry was not finished. Mark accepted the call to serve as pastor of the Union Church in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and for 2 years he and Nancy continued to serve back in the country they both loved so much. After returning to Aurora, they continued to be involved in various ministry projects, and especially loved spending time being grandpa and grandma to 9 grandchildren: Jill, Jenna, Joshua, Sara Beth, Connor, Joy, Grace, Wesley, and Jeremy, and a great-granddaughter, Ava Isabel.
Mark always loved to travel, and was able to visit many parts of the world. He loved the Hawaiian Islands and cruising in various parts of the world, and enjoyed several visits to the Middle East and the Holy Land. He kept an extensive collection of slides, pictures, and video and was always up for new adventures. He loved to ski, play golf, walk, swim and travel. Music was one of his many talents, and he sang in Faith's choir in his later years.
Mark was diagnosed with Parkinson's in 2005. He continued to stay as active as possible until the disease took its toll on his body. In 2012 he moved into St. Andrews Care facility full-time. Although his body continued to grow weaker, he never wavered in love or in prayer. Until the end his mind was focused on heaven and on people knowing Jesus, and his greatest legacy continues to live on in the lives of all those he has touched.
Mark is survived by his wife Nancy, his daughters Cindy (Jerry), Linda (Bill), Debby (Owen), his "brown-haired daughter" KimTyson, his 9 grandchildren, 1 great-granddaughter, his sister, Jane Black, and several nieces and nephews.

Death Notes: Obituary - New York Times,16 Oct 1984: Willard O. Bent, retired chairman and chief executive officer of the Garfinckel, Brooks Brothers, Miller & Rhoads Corporation, died of a heart attack last Tuesday at the Mary Hitchcock Hospital in Hanover, N.H. He was 71 years old and his principal residence was in Easton, Md.
Mr. Bent, who also had homes in Sharon, Vt., and Naples, Fla., served for 15 years as the chief operating officer of the corporation. During that time, its annual sales grew from $59 million in 1965 to $472 million in 1980. The next year, it was acquired by the Allied Stores Corporation of New York City.
Mr. Bent joined the company in Washington as president and chief executive officer in 1965, when it was known as Julius Garfinckel & Company. Since 1946, Garfinckel's had owned Brooks Brothers, which was founded in New York City in 1818.
Mr. Bent, who started his career in retail trade in 1933 as a buyer for the Montgomery Ward & Company department store chain, came to Washington from the J. W. Robinson Company in Los Angeles, where he was a vice president.
As chief executive of Garfinckel's, which was founded in 1905, he led the successful fight against a takeover bid in 1966 by the Genesco Corporation, the diversified New York retail company.
The next year, he added the chairmanship of the company to his other duties and embarked on an expansion program by acquiring the Miller & Rhoads department store group of Virginia.
With the acquisition of Miller & Rhoads, the corporation became the owner of carriage-trade stores in Washington, New York and Richmond.
''We have the carriage trade, but you can't live on just that,'' Mr. Bent said in an interview in 1968. So during the 1970's, the company expanded its branch stores, particularly Brooks Brothers, and acquired the Catherine's and Ann Taylor specialty shops, with outlets around the country.
Mr. Bent served as chairman, president and chief executive officer until 1973, when he relinquished the presidency. He retired in 1980, the year before the corporation was bought by Allied Stores Corporation.
He is survived by his wife, the former Ruth Ward of Bronxville; two sons, Christopher, of Old Greenwich, Conn., and Dennis, of Wellesley Hills, Mass., and five grandchildren.
A memorial service will be held Friday at 1 P.M. in the Bethlehem chapel of the Washington National Cathedral.

Death Notes: Obituary - The Pittsburgh Press, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, 14 Jun 1984: Gurdon Flagg, civic leader, dies // Gurdon F. Flagg, who helped transform a financially troubled Duquesne Club from the depths of the Depression to one of the most prestigious business clubs in the county, died of an aneurysm last night at St. Francis General Hospital, Lawrenceville.
Mr. Flagg, 83, a native of Hartford, Conn., had served the club 50 years when he retired as its manager June 1, 1981. He retained his position of secretary-treasurer until his death.
Known as a tough taskmaster by generations of club employees, he was also admired by his staff for his generosity. Many an employee had a hospital bill paid or a child attend college with Mr. Flagg's help.
Melvin D. Rex, who succeeded Mr. Flagg as manager, said he had tremendous respect for Mr. Flagg both as an individual and as a humanitarian.
"He did so many things for so many people behind the scenes," Rex added. "He shied away from any credit. He will be missed."
Mr. Flagg's tenure at the club spanned the St. Patrick's Day flood of 1936 when the club lost vast amounts of food and equipment; a $1.5 million fire in 1969 in which demonstrators gained entrance to the club and had to be removed by police.
He saw the admittance of the club's first Jewish member, and, in 1980, the first woman - the latter development caused at least in part by pressure from the federal government.
At the time of his death, Mr. Flagg was president and chairman of the board of St. Francis Hospital. Under his direction, the hospital, in 1973, constructed an $11.8 million doctor's addition and parking complex. He was also instrumental in helping acquire a $500,000 Betatron radiation therapy machine for cancer treatment.
Because of his work at St. Francis, Mr. Flagg received the Variety Club of Pittsburgh's Civic and Cultural Award in 1972.
Coming to Pittsburgh was the furthest thing from Mr. Flagg's mind when he was growing up in Hartford. His father, Edward G. Flagg, was an insurance executive, and the family could trace its New England lineage to the early history of the country.
During World War I, he witnessed the shelling of Wellfleet on the Massachusetts coast by German submarines.
At that time, Mr. Flagg's family hoped he would attend Yale and remain in Hartford. His friends convinced him to come to Pittsburgh.
He came to Pittsburgh in 1920 to study engineering at Carnegie-Mellon University, then Carnegie Institute of Technology. He received a degree in engineering in 1924.
To help pay his way through college, he got a job as a key clerk at the William Penn Hotel. Upon graduation, the hotel hired him full time.
By 1931 he had become the executive assistant manager of the hotel. That's when some of the members of the Duquesne Club, including E.V. Babcock and Park Alexander, persuaded him to become manager of the Club.
In was while he was working at the William Penn that Mr. Flagg met Mary Elizabeth Urben, a secretary from Carrick. In 1934 they were married in the rectory of the Church of the Most Holy Sacrament, Greensburg.
Mrs. Flagg; a daughter, Margot Smith of London, and three grandchildren, Carlyn, Gurdon and David, survive.
During World War II, Mr. Flagg supervised the feeding of defense workers at the Dravo shipyards, both on Neville Island and in Willington, Del. He also served as executive vice chairman of the Civilian Sponsoring Committee, which helped raise money for the benefit of families of those killed, captured or missing inaction.
In his long tenure as president of Pittsburgh Opera, Mr. Flagg brought it from a fledgling locally oriented company that performed in Oakland's Syria Mosque with a bank account so light "you could rest it on a daisy stem," to the Downtown and the stage of Heinz Hall.
Mr. Flagg also served on the boards of Heinz Hall, Chamber Music Society, Civic Light Opera and St. Vincent's College and was active in various Masonic organizations, including the Shriners and Jesters.
He attended Epiphany Roman Catholic Church, Uptown.
The family suggest that memorial contributions be made to the St. Francis General Hospital Building Fund, 45th Street, Pittsburgh 15201

Death Notes: Obituary, Hartford Courant, published Jul 9, 1960; R. G. COLT OF FAMED FAMILY DIES, PROVIDENCE, R. I.: Russell Griswold Colt, 78, a son of the man who established the famed 500 - acre Colt farm and drive in Bristol, died suddenly Friday at James Brown Hospital. His home was Linden Place, the family mansion in Bristol.
Born in Bristol, Colt was a son of Col. Samuel Pomeroy Colt and Elizabeth Bullock Colt and a nephew of former U.S. Sen. Lebaron Colt.
Wed to Ethel Barrymore
Colt was the husband of Gwendolyn Moran Colt and was the former husband of the late Ethel Barrymore.
Colt had been involved in attempts to clear away technicalities of Col. Colt's will that had blocked attempts to sell the famous farm. At issue was a clause in the will which set up the property as a trust to be held for Col. Colt's last surviving grandchild.
A move to make a state park out of the farm died this year in the General Assembly.
Miss Barrymore and Colt were wed in 1909. After numerous separations and reconciliations, they were divorced in 1923, though Miss Barrymore remained friendly with the Colt family.
They had three children, Ethel Barrymore Colt, Samuel Pomeroy Colt and John Drew Colt. All have appeared on either the stage of screen.
Colt remarried in 1940
His father, Col. Colt, was president of the United States Rubber Co. and president and board chairman of the Industrial Trust Co.
He was a nephew of Samuel Colt of Hartford, founder of Colt's Patent Fire Arms Co.
Russell Colt was in the brokerage business and in the munitions business with the Lewis Arms Co. before retiring in 1939.
General Notes: His father's will gave him $100,000 in cash in addition to the remainder interest in a $50,000 trust fund and one-sixth of the residuary estate and the estate at Mamaroneck, New York, that Samuel Colt had recently purchased.
Noted events in his life were:
He resided at 105 Waterman Street in 1900 at Providence, Providence, Rhode Island. 1527 He was enumerated at the residence of LeBaron Colt, his uncle. He worked as a Stock Broker in 1917. 937 He had a residence in 1917 at Mamaroneck, Westchester, New York. 937 He was a retired stockbroker and executive of the Lewis Arms Company. 4550 Residence at Death: Jul 1960, in Bristol, Bristol, Rhode Island. 4550
Russell married Ethel BARRYMORE [2745],4551 daughter of Maurice BARRYMORE [2746] 4552,4553 and Georgiana Emma DREW [2747],4554 on 14 Mar 1909 in Hyde Park, Suffolk, Massachusetts.589 The marriage ended in divorce in 1923. Ethel was born on 15 Aug 1879 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, died on 18 Jun 1959 in Hollywood, Los Angeles, California, at age 79, and was buried in Los Angeles, Los Angeles, California. Another name for Ethel was Ethel Mae BLYTHE.
Marriage Notes: The couple had been introduced, according to Barrymore's autobiography, when Colt had strolled by the table where she was having lunch with her uncle, actor John (Jack) Drew, in Sherry's Restaurant in New York. A New York Times article of 1911, when Barrymore first took preliminary divorce measures against Colt, states that Colt had been introduced to Barrymore by her brother John Barrymore while Colt was still a student at Yale.
Their marriage was a precarious one from the start, with Barrymore filing divorce papers as early in the marriage as 1911, much to Colt's surprise. At least one source claims that Colt abused her and also that he fathered a child with another woman while married to Barrymore. They divorced in 1923 and, quite surprisingly, she did not seek alimony from Colt, which was her right. Ethel Barrymore never remarried.
Burial Notes: She was buried in Calvary Cemetery.
General Notes: She was the sister of actors John Barrymore and Lionel Barrymore, the aunt of actor John Drew Barrymore, and the great-aunt of actress Drew Barrymore. She was also the niece of Broadway matinée idol John Drew Jr. and early Vitagraph movie star Sidney Drew. She spent her childhood in Philadelphia, and attended Roman Catholic schools there.
Ethel Barrymore was a highly regarded stage actress in New York City and a major Broadway performer. Many today consider her to be the greatest actress of her generation. She appeared in her first motion picture, The Nightingale, in 1914. She won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress for her role in the 1944 film None but the Lonely Heart opposite Cary Grant. In 1949, Barrymore appeared in the Academy Award winning film Pinky for which she was awarded an Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actress.
Children from this marriage were:

Brought up in Los Angeles wealth and graduated from Mt. Vernon Seminary in Washington, D.C., the former Eleanore Roberts wrote articles for The Times about her year's stay during the Depression with an aunt in London.

When Vance Muse did an article for House Beautiful this August, it was Colt who showed him around downtown Los Angeles. Among other things, she told him, "Garbo loved all the old buildings and parks but especially the commotion in the street--people dashing about, doing business, living their lives. Downtown was fabulous. And compared to Hollywood and Santa Monica it was so invigorating." After a divorce, in 1981 she married Samuel Barrymore Colt, the son of Ethel Barrymore. He died in 1986.

But after her role was reduced to one music number, she decided to leave the revue. Mr. White said that when Miss Merman joined the show he was forced to give her some of Miss Colt's songs.

She ran a summer stock company and played in stock, vaudeville and small nightclubs. Between tours she studied voice and soon was singing in small opera companies.

Death Notes: Obituary - The Seattle Times published Jan 31, 1959; H.D. COLLIER, RETIRED OIL EXECUTIVE, DIES. H. D. Collier, 83, retired president and board chairman of Standard Oil Co. of California, died last night in a San Francisco hospital after a short illness. Mr. Collier had been retired since 1955. He joined the oil firm in 1903 in Seattle as a salesman. He also was in the Tacoma and Portland offices before he went to San Francisco. He became a director in 1924 and for many years served as the chairman of the board. He was chairman during the company's greatest era of expansion in the West.
Mr. Collier retired as chairman in 1949. He was born in San Francisco. He was reared in Port Townsend and other Puget Sound communities.
Mr. Collier was a director of several banks and active in the Republican Part. He is survived by his wife Mae.
Burial Notes: Cypress Lawn Memorial Park.
General Notes: Henry Deward Collier is not well known as a seafarer and his obituary in the New York Times made no mention of it, but he loved ships. He was descended from a long line of Connecticut sea captains who worked the whaling trade and ran schooners between Calcutta, Sydney, Shanghai and the US West Coast in the great days of sail. He started on Washington state's Puget Sound in the 1890s as an engineer on the Flyer, the pride of the "mosquito fleet" that provided transport across and along the Sound.
He was best known as the founding chairman of Aramco, today the world's largest oil company, and also chairman of what is known today as Chevron. It was shrewdness that led him to form the partnership of Mobil, Exxon, Texaco and SoCal that became known as Aramco, and King Faisal of Saudi Arabia was as enthusiastic as he. It assured that there would be sufficient markets for distributing the large quantities of Saudi oil that SoCal had discovered, and that the British would not have a hand in it as Faisal feared British domination. He believed very much in tapping the spirit and energy of the soldiers coming back from the Second World War. He developed what he named the Chevron dealership network to offer men an opportunity to work with the Standard Oil Company of California, rather than for it, guessing that returning soldiers, after years in the armed forces, would not welcome the stability and remoteness of a major corporation as they had in the jobless 1930s. It was the beginning of the Chevron brand.
He started with Standard Oil in the early 1900s. His first job was working the wharves of Seattle drumming up an oil business in the marine industry by persuading steamboat operators to convert from burning cord wood or coal to burning oil. He approached Joshua Green, the legendary Seattle Banker and owner of the Athlon whose compound engine had recently been replaced with a triple expansion steam engine to consider conversion to oil fuel. Green initially declined, telling him "Harry, that stuff blows up!" To prove the contrary, Collier rigged up an oil burner under the boiler, and then dropped a lighted match in the oil tank. When no explosion ensued, Collier had made his sale.
He was devoted to public service, working hard to ensure that his company supported the Red Cross, the War Chest, international relief and many other charities. He worked hard to ensure the accession of his friend Dwight Eisenhower to the Presidency. But for him, charity began at home, and he ensured to the best of his ability that his relations had jobs in the darkest days of the Great Depression. He adapted well to change, and it was the facility with which he did so that I think defined his life.
His summer home in Los Gatos was known as Sun Acres, a 1932 two story, ten room country home. He often played host to captains, admirals and other men of the sea. Four nieces became the wives of admirals in time, and he took great pleasure in that, as an old sea dog should. But the ship that was named for him, the oil tanker HD Collier, was sunk by a Japanese submarine in the war with a great loss of life.
Noted events in his life were:
He had a residence from 1900 to 1910 at Seattle, King, Washington. 1565,4591 He was employed as an Assistant Manager, Standard Oil Company in 1917 in San Francisco, San Francisco, California. 910 He had a residence from 1920 to 1930 at San Francisco, San Francisco, California. 4592,4593 He was employed as a Director, Standard Oil Company in 1930 in San Francisco, San Francisco, California. 4592 Residence at Death: 2790 Green Street, in Jan 1959, in San Francisco, San Francisco, California.

Death Notes: Obituary - The Billings Gazette, Billings, Montana, 13 Feb 1993: Marion Davis Collier // Marion Davis Collier valiant heart is stilled. The tired little body is at rest. The final crisis is over, but she had the opportunity to live for 93 years, and made the most of it. On Feb. 12, 1993, at St. John's Lutheran Home, she quietly slipped away to join her George, who died Aug. 6, 1990. Their married life together had numbered 67 years, after their wedding in Sycamore, Ill.
During the last days of her life, she would comment that she was just "lazy and slow." Before illnesses began to chip away at her strength and physical abilities, the word "lazy" was never part of her vocabulary. Projects at her sewing machine and doing for others were at the center of her interest in life, especially where young children were concerned.
Her life began in Illinois, on the 11th of October, 1899. Her two sisters, Jessie and Mildred, always lived in that state but distance never lessened the strong bond between the families' members. Her brother, Charles, and their mother, May Davis, lived with the Collier family during the 14 years that they were located in Washington, D.C. She loved the outdoor beauty of Montana. The final verse in one of her poems says, "Yes., I miss the gorgeous colors of my native Middle West - but I really think Montana, my adoptive state, is best." After the family moved to 1023 N. 32nd St., in 1946, Marion enjoyed assuming responsibilities in the Deaconess Hospital Auxiliary, in Circle activities of First Congregational Church and then in the Women's Fellowship of Mayflower Church. On patriotic holidays, it was important to her to have the American flag visible on the front of her house.
Family members who will feel the void in their lives because of her departure are son, Gordon, and his wife, Margaret, of California; daughter, Millie, and husband, Jim Montgomery, of Texas and daughter, Marilyn, and husband, Joe Haddenhorst, of Billings. She will be held dear in the hearts of seven grandchildren and 109 great-grandchildren.
Cremation has taken place. Private memorial services will be held at a later date. Michelotti, Sawyers & Nordquist have charge of cremation. Should any friends wish to honor her memorial with memorials, it would have pleased her to think they have considered Friends of the Library, Billings Food Bank, Meals on Wheels, or St. John's Lutheran Home.
So Marion Collier's easy smile and optimistic belief that "I'll be better tomorrow" are gone, but she leaves a legacy for us in that we try to make the world a better place by following her example of finding the best in others, being friendly, and not losing faith in the future.

General Notes: Biographical Sketch - SIMMONS, Hezzleton E.: An educator whose teaching experience was chiefly in the field of chemistry, the late Hezzleton E. Simmons became president of Akron University, serving capably in that office for nearly a score of years. Toward the end of his life he headed the Scholarship Committee of Firestone Tire and Rubber Company, and he was active in many other organizational connections. His varied achievements included authorship and significant chemical research.
He was born at Lafayette, Ohio, on October 30, 1885, son of George Erastus and Anna (Farnum) Simmons. His father, who was born July 10, 1859, was a farmer. His death occurred May 20, 1932. The Simmons family had been in this country since an immigrant ancestor settled at Scituate, Massachusetts, about 1650.
Attending public elementary and high schools at LeRoy, Ohio, Hezzleton E. Simmons went on to his advanced studies at Buchtel College, where he received his degree of Bachelor of Science in 1908. He took his degree of Master of Science at the University of Pennsylvania in 1912. He later received honorary degrees as Doctor off Science from the College of Wooster, 1934, and Doctor of Laws from the University of Toledo in 1937, and from the University of Akron in 1953. In his college days he became a member of Lone Star Fraternity and Omicron Delta Kappa.
Mr. Simmons was assistant in chemistry at Buchtel College while a student there, 1906-1908. From 1908-1910, he was instructor in chemistry at the University of Pennsylvania. He then returned to Buchtel College, where he was assistant professor of chemistry until 1912. Throughout the years from 1912-1933, Dr. Simmons was concurrently professor of chemistry at Buchtel College and Akron University.
He was named president of Akron University in 1933, and served until 1951, when he became president emeritus. The year after his retirement from the presidency, he assumed duties as executive director of the Scholarship Committee of the Firestone Tire and Rubber Company, and served until his death.
While head of the chemistry department of the University of Akron, Dr. Simmons developed the world's first rubber chemistry curriculum, which attracted students from all over the world. He was a gifted teacher who inspired many students to go on to graduate work. He was able to bring to the rubber industry many trained men to meet their technical needs. Throughout his teaching career, he acted as a private consultant on manufacturing problems, thus giving his student practical training in coping with the technical difficulties posed by industry. As president of the university he introduced a group of general education courses, predating the famed Harvard Report by two years. He also initiated the first Campus Development Program for the university---a program which resulted in the erection of an engineering building, a student center, a chemistry building, a major addition to the library, and an athletic service building. When Dr. Simmons became the eighth president of his alma mater, the university's assets were $1,381,000, and day and evening enrollment totaled a little more than two thousand. When he retired in 1951, the university's financial assets had grown to $6,600,000, and there were nearly five thousand students enrolled.
Dr. Simmons was a reserve officer in the Chemical Warfare Service, United States Army, from 1923-1935. He was associate chief of the Rubber Branch of the War Production Board in 1942, and consultant in the office of the Rubber Director from 1942-1944. His outstanding research work was in the field of rubber chemistry, and he was the author of a number of articles on this and related fields published in technical and scientific journals. He was also the author of two major works: "Cultivation, Chemical Testing and Manufacturing of Rubber" (1921) and "Rubber Manufacture" (1922).
He was a member of the Association of Urban Universities, the American Chemical Society, Deutsche Chemische Gesellschaft, and the Akron Art Institute which he served as a trustee. He was a member of the Metropolitan Park Board in his home city, the Police Pension Board, the Rotary Club and the Akron City Club. Capable in business affairs as well as in scientific research and educational administration, he was a director of the Ohio Farmers' Insurance Association and the Evans Savings and Loan Association.
Dr. Simmons attended the Universalist Church. Fond of the out-of-doors, his favorite sports were fishing and baseball. He and Mrs. Simmons had a summer home at Pointe Au Baril, Ontario.
She was the former Miss Agnes Lillian Whiton, and they were married at Amherst, Ohio, on July 29, 1909. Her parents were Joseph Lucas and Annette Josephine (Gawn) Whiton. Her father was a farmer. The Whiton farm was a part of the Western Reserve land grant which was allotted veterans of the Revolutionary War. Dr. and Mrs. Simmons became the parents of the following children: 1. George Hezzleton, born in 1910. 2. Catherine Whiton, who was born in 1912. She became the wife of Howard I. Russell. 3. Mary Agnes, born in 1916. She married Dr. Harold A. Zintel. 4. Ruth Lavina, who was born in 1924 and died in infancy. 5. Priscilla Jane, born in 1925.
The death of Dr. Simmons, at Akron on December 30, 1954, marked the passing of a versatile man whose career had contributed much to the fields of education, chemical research and industrial development.
AKRON ROTARY CAMP - Rotarians Hezzelton Simmons and Walter Hoyt, an orthopedic surgeon, had a vision to serve children with disabilities in the Akron community. On June 10, 1924, they met with members of the Akron Rotary Club, who welcomed the idea with great enthusiasm. They rented a YMCA camp for 10 days and the Rotary Camp for Crippled Children was born. Kids with polio and cerebral palsy had a place to spend their summers, just like every other child, a place where disabilities and limits did not matter.
In 1925, the Akron Rotary Club purchased six acres on Rex Lake and in 1926 the Camp began operation for a four-week period. During the early days, the campers were mainly children with polio and cerebral palsy. The Camp's physical structure changed a great deal over the years. In 1955, the Club erected the Walter Hoyt Recreation Hall and in 1959, seven new concrete block cabins became part of the Camp. The Hezzelton Simmons Lodge, constructed in 1963, was built and included a new kitchen, dining room and craft center. Even today, the camp continues to grow to better serve the community.

Monday in a private rooming house at 101 Oak Street. In his bedroom where he was found sitting in an easy chair still conscience, he told Detective Sergeant Charles F. Daily that the shooting was accidental and happened after he had cleaned a revolver. He was taken in the police ambulance by Policeman T. F. Sullivan to the Hartford Hospital where it was stated that his conditional was critical.
The bullet entered just below Captains Crozier's heart and stopped just short of penetrating the skin directly in back. He was fully clothed except for his coat and waistcoat. There were powder burns on his shirt caused by the close proximity of the revolver when it was fired.
Twirling Gun Finger. // Captain Crozier explained to Detective Sergeant Daley that he had cleaned the revolver, a 32 caliber, and had reloaded it with six bullets. Finished, he was twirling it about one finger when it slipped from his grasp. Grabbing for the gun it exploded as he caught it, the bullet striking him in the breast, he said. He replaced the revolver in its box and put it back in the drawer of a desk.
The police were notified nearly half an hour later. Another roomer in the house told Joseph Finnegan, who was sitting in the dining room that he thought he heard someone calling Finnegan. The latter went to Crozier's room and found him sitting in a chair. Crozier asked him to call either Captain Henry of Captain Lowe at the police station and have an ambulance sent.
Captain Crozier also told Finnegan that the shooting was accidental and especially told Detective Sergeant Daley not to interpret the occurrence as a suicide attempt. His clothes and belongings had been packed and he explained to the detective that he was expecting Mrs. Myrtle Johnson of York Village, Me., to come for him today and take him to that town where he intended to live this summer at least. He had lived at the Oak Street home since last November 1, occupying a single room on the second floor.
Miss Mary Brown, a roomer in the same home, told the police that she had talked with Captain Crozier about 6:35 p. m. and that she did not notice anything out of the way about his actions or speech. Detective Sergeant Daley spoke likewise of his conversion following the shooting.
Horseman and Boxer. // Captain Crozier is 78 years old. He had been a special insurance agent recently. He was night clerk of the old United States Hotel 50 years ago. For 30 years he traveled, representing John Wanamaker as superintendent of agencies. Later he was connected with Lincoln and Ulmer of New York and once was agent for the Equitable Life Insurance Company.
As an athlete he devoted most of his time to boxing and gained a considerable reputation both as a professional fighter himself and also as manager of a boxing stable and as trainer of other fighters. Deputy Chief Henry L. Hart of the police department was one of the boxers trained by Captain Crozier.
Captain Crozier was also well known in the past as a horseman. He owned a stable in West Hartford where he raised 35 colts racing them on all southern and eastern tracks and winning many ribbons and purses. He was frequently seen in the pre-automobile days, driving a team of spirited horses trough the street of downtown Hartford.
At one time Crozier was sparring partner to "Billy" Edwards, then lightweight champion of the world. He also boxed in public with many other famous pugilists of his time. He was well versed in the Japanese art of jiu jitsu, learning it from Y. Y. Yabe, then champion of Japan, whom he taught boxing in return.
When the old United States Hotel barber shop moved upstairs in 1885 Captain Crozier was the first to be shaved in the new location. Thirty-eight years later when the shop closed its doors he was the last person to be shaved, the barber being the same on each occasion, Louis C. Lueth.

Gloria married William E. Barlow in 1943, president of Vision Incorporated, a prominent news magazine of South America.

Death Notes: Obituary - Journal Inquirer, Manchester, Connecticut, 9 Apr 2016: A. Herbert Wells // On March 3, 2016, the world lost a king among men. A. Herbert Wells "Herb" passed away in Lake Havasu, Arizona. His family was with him. He will be greatly missed by all who knew him for his Heart of Gold — he never had an unkind thought or word for anybody or anything. He was 101 years old. Herb was born Nov. 9, 1914, in Enfield to Robert S. and Sophia (Rostek) Wells. He graduated from Enfield High School, where he was president of his class for all four years. Herb won so many awards at high school that one time they denied him a due award because they thought it was being unfair to his fellow classmates and decided to give it to a runner-up. He was also an outstanding baseball and basketball player. He then attended Storrs College (now the University of Connecticut) where he studied agriculture, and he played on the starting five of the basketball team. He then received a baseball scholarship to Bay Path School in Massachusetts, where he graduated in business administration. Herb married Priscilla K. Comstock, the love of his life, whom he met in third grade. They were married in 1936 and moved to Somers and their home on Wells Road was named for Herb. Priscilla and Herb were married for 71 years. Priscilla died April 9, 2008. In Herb's early years, he sold milking machines throughout the entire East Coast. He later sold farm machinery with Willard Pinney. He also became the tax collector of Somers, Deputy Sheriff, Chief of Police, and First Selectman of Somers for three terms. As First Selectman, he purchased the land for the town dump and established zoning for Somers - the first town in the area to do so. He also initiated paperwork to have a state policeman in Somers. The present First Selectman of Somers designated November 9 as A. Herbert Wells Day. Herb and Priscilla purchased Piedmont Hall and started a summer theatre, the Somers Playhouse. Actors were hired from New York and local towns. Herb played 60 acting parts, built scenery, distributed advertising posters, and did anything that needed to be done, and Priscilla directed and acted in many plays, in addition to her many other duties at the theatre. Priscilla and Herb housed many of the New York actors at their home as well as at the Playhouse each summer. The Somers Playhouse operated for 11 years. Herb then went to work for Bay State Films, a film and recording studio. He and Priscilla traveled the world with this company, filming documentaries and recording speakers from all over the world. He was President of Bay State Films until his retirement. Upon his retirement, Herb started a postcard/souvenir business, selling to local gift shops and hotels. He had over 200 customers and loved them all as well as his daily sales trips. He was still selling just prior to his death. Herb loved life and especially loved telling his stories of the past. He also dearly loved his and Priscilla's many trips to Arizona to be with their family and their trips to Hawaii with the wonderful Keeney family. Herb belonged to the Somers Congregational Church, the Shriners, the Masons, and he was the first member of the Elmcrest Country Club, where he was an ace golfer, winning many tournaments. Herb leaves behind his daughters, Nancy W. Campbell and Cindi W. Parker; grandson, Wesley "Lee" Campbell Jr.; granddaughter, Sarah Parker; great-granddaughters, Jordan Campbell and Amanda Campbell. He also leaves his nephews, Brad Davis, John C. Davis, (Betty) and Peter Schreier (Marjorie); nieces, Judy Davis Knowles, Wendy Schreier Klecak, Fran Schreier La Flamme (Phil) and their families. Herb's entire family was his life, and he adored each and every member. He also leaves special friends, Dottie Fitz Gerald and family, Dr. Steve and Jane Morrone and too many others to mention. Herb had a lot of friends and loved them all. A special thanks to Jim and Carol Fitzgibbon for taking care of Herb's house and his beloved cat. A graveside service will be held Saturday, June 18, 2016, at 11 a.m. at the Central Somers Cemetery, Main Street, Somers. Reverend Barry Cass will officiate. A reception will be held at the Somers Congregational Church in Somers following the burial. In lieu of flowers, please make a contribution to the Somers Congregational Church, 599 Main Street, Somers, or the charity of your choice. Or just give one of Herb's special smiles or kind words to another person - or when you hear the song, "What a Wonderful World," think of Herb. He so loved the Wonderful World in which he lived, and we loved HIM.

Death Notes: Obituary - Chicago Tribune (IL) - Wednesday, December 1, 1999: GRACE CHARLOTTE WHITE, RETIRED SCHOOLTEACHER // Grace Charlotte White, a retired schoolteacher and longtime resident of Wheaton, died Sunday at Central DuPage Hospital in Winfield. She was 69.
Born in Ponta Nova, Brazil, the daughter of missionary parents, Mrs. White worked as an elementary school teacher in the Wheaton Public School system for many years, teaching in a number of local schools. She later worked for the Ray Graham Association as an early intervention teacher.
"She was an extraordinarily tender and loving person, which made her work with children with developmental problems even more fulfilling," said her sister, Ruth Johnson. "She reached out to them in ways others could not."
During the 1950s and 60s, Mrs. White taught kindergarten at Washington Elementary School in Wheaton. There she met a 1st-grade teacher, Ginnie Adair, and began a friendship that spanned more than four decades.
"I had just moved here from Philadelphia and didn't know a soul," recalled Adair. "Grace was so warm and nice. Even before we got to be friends, I remember thinking what a wonderful way she had with children. "
Adair also respected her colleague's spunk when it came to matters concerning the school board.
"She wasn't afraid to speak up and let the board know exactly how she felt about things," said Adair. "She attended the meetings, taking notes the whole time. She was very attentive to the needs of her students and played an active role in helping make decisions that would affect their lives."
But Mrs. White's devotion to children extended well beyond the classroom. Early in her career, and already the mother of a 3-year-old daughter, she and her husband adopted their 4-year-old niece and 2-year-old nephew, after a family tragedy.
"Mom raised us all as her own," said her adopted daughter, Martha Laks. "She was loving and caring and everything you could want in a mom."
Mrs. White was also involved in the Christian Education Department at Wheaton Bible Church, Wheaton Academy and the Wheaton College Alumni Association.
Other survivors include a son, Mark; a daughter, Manya White; and three grandchildren.
Memorial services will be at 11:30 a.m. Wednesday at Wheaton Bible Church, at Main and Franklin Streets, Wheaton.
