SAMUEL MEESE

  Samuel Meese, 32, of Avoca, New York, died at his home Sunday evening of a 
heart attack.  Relatives in the vicinity of Salisbury were shocked to learn of 
his death because of his youth and the fact that they knew nothing of any 
illness.  Mr. Meese was born in Garrett County, Maryland, a son of the late 
Daniel D. Meese and of Mrs. Mary E. (Wetmiller) Meese.  He spent his life until 
his late teens in this vicinity.  He went into the trucking business after he 
and two of his brothers moved to New York state, and about three years ago, 
bought a mill and was doing very well.
  He is survived by his wife, Mrs. Jennie (Keeler) Meese; a son, Lawrence, seven 
years; a daughter, Bonnie, four years; his mother, Mrs. Mary E. Meese, 
Frostburg, Md.; four brothers, George D. and Reid of Salisbury RD 1, LeRoy and 
Woodrow of Cohocton, N.Y.; four sisters, Mrs. Eva Landis, Salisbury RD 1; Mrs. 
Ada Deist, Jenners; Mrs. June Kemp, Gray; and Mrs. Alda Layman, Frostburg.
  Funeral services were held on Wednesday morning, with burial in Avoca.
