Obituary: W. M. Fowler

Newspaper: McCurtain Gazette, Idabel, Oklahoma

Dated: April 18, 1935

Mr. W. M. Fowler of Millerton, Okla., was called away by death, April 
1. This coming May 4th he would have been sixty-six years old. He is 
survived by his third wife and nine own children and three step-
children, also two brothers and twenty four grand children and a host 
of other relatives and friends.  Three sons, Rufus, Oscar, and H. L., 
all of Millerton, and six daughters, Beaulah Essary, Hollis; Mattie 
Kellum, of Texas; Bell Stafford, Garvin; Gertie Sharp, Fort Towson; 
Betty Strickland, Millerton; and Maude Henthorne, Valliant.  His two 
brothers are Mears and Dave Fowler of Western Oklahoma.

His children's mother was Mary Brannon.  He had one brother-in-law 
present at the funeral, Asberry Brannon of Alikchi.

He had spent the majority of his life at Millerton. His funeral 
services were held in the old Rock Church at Wheelock with Coffey 
Funeral Home in charge.  The songs sang were "When We Gather With the 
Saints at the River" and "Asleep in Jesus".

I am thanking the many friends for their kindness and beautiful 
floral offerings while daddy was sick.

- Maude Henthorne -  Valliant, Oklahoma
