CLARENCE LEROY SAYLOR

  Clarence Leroy Saylor died Friday evening, July 19, at 6 o'clock at his home 
in Akron, Ohio, from a heart attack.
  Mr. Saylor, son of Samuel and Susan Ferner Saylor, was born March 5, 1892, in 
Northampton Township, Somerset County, Pa.  He was united in marriage with the 
former Annie Murray of Garrett, by Dr. W. H. Bruce Carney, pastor of the Mt. 
Tabor Lutheran Church, in 1914.  They lived in Garrett for 32 years, then moved 
to Akron, Ohio in 1941, where he was employed as a salesman by Walk M. Kistler 
(a former merchant of Garrett) for his "Doughnut Bakery".  He had always enjoyed 
the best of health until eight months ago, when he suffered from a heart attack 
from which he had presumably fully recovered and had been given permission by 
his doctor, after a thorough examination, to return to work the next week, but a 
second heart attack last Friday proved fatal.  He is survived by his wife, Annie 
Murray Saylor, three sons, Murray, Bruce and Charles; two daughters, Jocelyn 
Saylor Wood and Nina, all of Akron; one sister, Mrs. Malda Saylor Martin, of 
Akron; one brother, Wilson Saylor of Berlin, and two grandchildren.
  A brief service was held at the Materna Funeral Home in Akron Monday evening 
at 8 o'clock, and the body was then shipped to Garrett where funeral services 
were held in Mt. Tabor Lutheran Church, of which Mr. Saylor was a member, at 
3:30 p.m., Tuesday, Dr. C. J. Wagner, pastor of the St. John's Lutheran Church 
of Akron, officiating, assisted by the pastor of the Mt. Tabor Lutheran Church, 
Rev. John S. Hoenstine.  Interment was made in the I.O.O.F. Cemetery, Berlin.  
The pallbearers were Guy A. Cook, Earl Christner, Harold Walker, George Carter, 
Wilson Walters and Harry Neil.
