Parrett, pastor, officiating. Two solos were sung by Mrs. A. H. Shuman and the entire service was very beautiful. The pallbearers were taken from among her former classmates and were Glenn Levers, Marion Woods, Keith Marshall, Wesley Weidner, Lewis Miars and Max Gerloch. Interment took place at Riverside cemetery. Not quite three months ago Mrs. Gorton passed away, and La Rue, who was employed in the local telephone office, was sorely bereaved and had not been herself since. She grieved for her mother and soon began to fail in health. However, no one realized that she was so soon to follow. The end came peacefully and she just slept away. Her father, J. B. Gorton and a sister, Mrs. Pat Short, of Grants Pass, Oregon and a brother Arner Gorton, of Ryderwood, Washington, attended the funeral. Mrs. Homer Fletcher, of Long Beach, California, another sister, was unable to get here. La Rue was 19 years of age and until her bereavement and illness was one who spread sunshine wherever she went and was beloved by all who knew her. Young and old regret her untimely death and extend sympathy to her grief stricken relatives.
