St. Landry Clarion (Opelousas, LA) June 09, 1906, pg. 5
The death of Mr. Theophile Hollier, which occurred at the residence of his 
daughter, Mrs. Chas. Russell, in Lafayette, on Saturday, June 2, 1906, at 9:30 
p. m., was received at his home, Opelousas, with most profound regrets, and the 
large concourse of friends which formed the funeral cortege when the body 
reached here Sunday mutely but strongly attested the esteem in which he was 
held by the people of this community.

Mr. Hollier had been ill for some months suffering with chronic constitutional 
troubles, but he had rallied and when taken seriously ill was on his way to 
Texas, and had stopped to see his daughter in Lafayette. There he was stricken 
and did not recover.

His wife preceeded him to the grave only a few months ago, and both of them 
were, it was thought at the time, fatally stricken at the same time. Now that 
they have reached that coast, over life's rough ocean driven, may they rejoice, 
no wanderer lost a family in Heaven.

Mr. Hollier was 57 years of age. He was a member of the Ancient Order of United 
Workmen and of the Woodmen of the World, and members of both orders met the 
body at the train and accompanied it to the grave.

Additional Comments:
Card Of Thanks

We, the undersigned, desire to extend our thanks to the officers and members of 
the Ancient Order of United Workmen and Woodmen of the World for the prompt 
settlement of the death claim of our deceased father, Theophile Hollier.

We also wish to extend our heartfelt thanks to the individual members of both 
orders who so faithfully watched and assisted at the bedside of our deceased 
father during his long spell of illness, and for the services rendered the 
family in the hour of death.

F. F. Hollier,

Mrs. Charles Russell,

Arsene Hollier,
