LLOYD ALLEN BOYER

Lloyd Allen Boyer Died While Fishing
Sudden Death of Former Resident of Meyersdale - Remains Brought Here for Burial

  Lloyd Allen Boyer, aged 33, of Youngstown, Ohio, a former resident of 
Meyersdale, died suddenly on Saturday, July 6, while on a fishing trip with his 
wife and two young children and some neighbors.  While fishing in Pine Lake, at 
North Lima, O., he was seized with a heart attack and fell into the water.  
Other members of the fishing party got him out of the water in a few minutes, 
before any water got in his lungs, and worked with him for several hours before 
convinced of the fact that he was dead.
  He was a son of James and Clara (Housel) Boyer, former residents of this 
community, now living at Poland, Ohio.  Besides his parents he is survived by 
his wife and two small children, Betty and Ilene, one brother, J. Bruce Boyer, 
of Poland, Ohio, and one sister, Mrs. H. M. (Sarah) Richards, of Youngstown.
  He was a driver of a city bus in Youngstown for the last twelve years, and was 
recently presented a diamond ring by the bus company for having driven a bus for 
ten years without an accident.  Several years ago he was presented with a gold 
watch for similar services.
  His body was brought to Meyersdale by his sorrowing relatives for burial in 
Union Cemetery.  Funeral services were held at the Charles Yaist home on North 
Street, Wednesday afternoon.  The remains were accompanied to their last resting 
place by the bereaved parents, brother, sister, wife and children.
