                    --------------¤¤¤¤¤¤--------------

It is with our deepest regrets that a "one of a kind," Ned L. McWherter, 82,
of Jonesborough, and native of Greeneville, passed away on Wednesday, June 29,
2005, at the James H. Quillen VA Medical Center Nursing Home. 

Mr. McWherter, a retired State Park Ranger, spent most of his career at Roan
Mountain State Park. He was an avid hunter and fisherman, teaching all his
children and nephews a love for the outdoors. He served during World War II in
the Army Air Force with the 509th Composite Group stationed on the island of
Tinian in the South Pacific. 

Survivors include his wife, Sara Runion McWherter; three sons and daughters-
in-law, Chris and Pam McWherter, Gary and Kim McWherter and David and Kim
Dulaney; a sister, Mary Bowie; a brother-in-law, Robert Runion and his wife
Phyllis; a grandson, Dustin McWherter; a granddaughter, Brooke Crockett;
nephews Randy, Jay, Don, Ned and Bob McIntyre and Hank Bowie; and nieces, Mary
Lou and Franny Bowie, Leslie Hopson and Libby McIntyre. 

Mr. McWherter was preceded in death by one sister, Louise McIntyre, and wife,
Sally Ann Haynes McWherter. 

The family is ever grateful for the care that was provided by the physicians,
nurses and staff at the V.A. Nursing Home. At the request of Mr. McWherter
there will be no memorial service. In lieu of flowers, Mr. McWherter had
requested donations be made to your local cancer society. 

Friends and family are invited to the McWherter residence for a celebration of
his life on Saturday, July 2, from 2 until 8 p.m.
