J. Clarke, Publisher WILLIAM L. WARNER. No man of his age has made or is making a better record in Sevier county than William L. Warner, resident partner in the undertaking firm of Lindquist & Warner. He was born at Ogden, Utah, in 1890, and acquired his education in the schools of that city, while later he took a course in embalming and undertaking at the Hohenschuh-Carpenter College of Embalming in Des Moines, Iowa. Returning to Ogden, he obtained employment with C. J. A Lindquist of that city and there remained until 1917, when he removed to Richfield and purchased the interest of W. O. Erickson and became managing partner of the business that is now conducted under the style of Lindquist & Warner. The business of the firm covers Sevier, Piute and Wayne counties and theirs is the largest and best equipped concern in its line in southern Utah. In addition to the undertaking and embalming business the firm deals largely in cut flowers, its purpose being to render all possible aid to their patrons in times of bereavement. Thoroughly familiar with every branch of the business, Mr. Warner's manner is kindly and sympathetic and the public regards him as an excellent addition to the business circles of Richfield. He employs the most scientific methods in the care of the dead and his success is attributable to his capability and efficiency, combined with his natural kindliness of spirit. In 1915 Mr. Warner was married to Miss Martha Theurer, a daughter of Jacob Theurer, a farmer of Cache county. They now have two children, William L. and Glen. Mr. Warner Is a consistent member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, in which he has been an active worker. He filled a mission to Hawaii from 1910 until 1913 and he is a member of the Young Men's Mutual Improvement Association. While residing in Ogden he served as president of the Mutual there. He is also a member of the Richfield Commercial Club and throughout the period of the war he took an active and helpful interest in all work pertaining thereto. He aided in promoting and supporting the war loans and was a member of the fuel administration for Sevier county. His activities have been carefully directed for the benefit of community, commonwealth and country as well as for the upbuilding of his own fortunes and he has made for himself a creditable name and place as a business man and as a citizen.
