Suecohu@aol.com April 5, 2007, 12:20 pm Macon County Citizen - Oglethorpe, Ga. March 28, 1930 VERNEY L. ROBINSON Funeral Services For Verney Robinson Thursday Afternoon. Funeral services for young Verney Robinson, 16, popular high school student, who died on Wednesday afternoon of last week, were held at the MT. ZION LUTHERAN CEMETERY Thursday afternoon, conducted by Rev. J. E. Summers, who was assisted by Rev. D. L. Heglar. The young man was the son of Mr. and Mrs. Bob Robinson, who reside between Oglethorpe and Ellaville, and had been attending the consolidated school here since last September. He was very popular, and his passing cast a gloom over the entire school, which was closed down last Thuresday at noon out of respect and in order to give the students and eachers an opportunity to attend the funeral services. Practically every teacher and many of the students were present at the services, which were largely attended by citizens from this entire section and many were visibly affected as the casket was lowered in the grave. The young man is survived by his mother and father, a twin brother, who is also a local high school student and one younger brother. Additional Comments: Yesterday, I posted an obituary for this individual as taken from the March 27, 1942 issue of The Ellaville Sun. The death notice was found in the Encore Headlines section and listed as 10 YEARS AGO (1932). Obviously that was in error as this obituary and the record from the Georgia Death Index show. Thanks to Sue for pointing out the error.
