Obituary of Dr. S. R. Heller

There are many Oconee friends of Dr. S. R. Heller, of Townville who will learn 
with deepest regret of his death, which occured at his home last Monday night 
about 8:00. Dr. Heller had been in felling health for quite a while, suffering 
from a complication of troubles, and was taken worse on Thursday of last week, 
his condition gradually becoming worse until death came Monday night. He was 
about 60 years of age. Dr. Heller was born in Newberry county and after 
practicing medicine there for two years, moved to Townville about 35 years 
ago, and had lived here ever since.  He was a graduate of Patrick Military 
School in Greenville, and also attended South Carolina College at Columbia. 
Later he graduated in medicine at the Charleston Medical College. He leaves a 
wife and eight small children. His wife was Miss Ellen Cromer, daughter of the 
late Lewis Cromer. They were married in 1879. The following are the children: 
Dr. John R. Heller of Fairplay,  Joe Heller of Sandy Springs, Dr. W. B. Heller 
of Lavonia GA,  Mrs. Furman Boleman of Augusta, GA, Misses Venie and Bernie 
Heller and Guy and Christopher Heller. Dr. Heller was a member of the 
Methodist church. Funeral and interment were held at Smith's Chapel Tuesday 
afternoon at 3 o'clock, conducted by the pastor, Rev. W. S. Myers. We join 
with other friends of the family in extending sympathy in their bereavement.
