Norfolk Journal and Guide,Jun 2,1951
Norfolk - Funeral services were held Wednesday May 9 at Metropolitan AME Zion
Church for John T. Veal, a unique figure in Norfolk who was widely recognized
because of his white silky hair.

Mr. Veal, a man never seen wearing a hat, died Saturday, May 5, at a local
hospital following a lingering illness. He was the husband of Mrs. Alice Veal of
800 Summit avenue, and had been a resident of Norfolk for 60 years.

Officiating at the funeral was the Rev. J. D. Cauthon, Metropolitan Church
pastor. Expressions of sympathy from the neighborhood were given by the Rev. H.
H. Myers. Solos were rendered by Ivey Scott who sang, “He’ll Understand,” and
Mrs. Vivian Morris singing “The Lord’s Prayer.” Acknowledgements were read by
Mrs. J. D. Folk.

Survivors other than the widow are John Veal Jr., Miss Mary E. Veal, William
Veal and a devoted sister-in-law, Mrs. Catherine Williams Clisby, all of New
York City.
