!OBITUARY
FORMER JUDGE OF COUNTY COURT PASSES AWAY

William Tyler Keathley was born near Annapolis August 3, 1870, and died June 18, 1953, aged 82 years, 10 months and 15 days.

He was united in marriage to Martha Evaline Lewis on February 19, 1892, and to this union thirteen children were born. His wife and 11 children survive his. The living children are:

Della Tesreau, St. Louis; Walker Keathely, Ironton, Lucille Fanali, Point Arena, California; Nettie Helms, Hamburg, Michigan; Levter Keathley, St. Louis; Charles E. of San Gabriel, California; Clarence of Jefferson City; Herschel of Anchorage, Alaska; Myrene Wallace of Ironton; Lorene Keathely of Ironton; Marshall Keathley of Midland, Texas.

He also leaves 27 grandchildren and 22 great grandchildren to honor his memory.

At an early age he became a member of the Christian Church at Brunot. Later he united with the First Baptist Church here at Ironton.

During his entire life he practiced Christian principles in his home and in his community. For this reason, it is not necessary to eulogize his at this time. His life was a testimony of Micah's writing: “He has showed you, oh man, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you but to do justice and love kindness and to walk humbly with your God.”

Mr.Keathley served his county as Judge of the County Court from the Southern District and was always a man of high principle and anxious to serve to the best of his ability.

Services were from the White and Sons Chapel Saturday afternoon and burial was at the Arcadia Valley Memorial Park. Rev. Nelson was in charge of the funeral and Whites the funeral arrangements.

During her entire life, she practiced Christian principals in her house and in her community. Her life was a testimony to the Writings in the Proverbs:

“She looks well to the ways of her household and does not eat of the bread of idleness. Her children rise up and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her.”

Therefore, with the poet we can say:

Out of Earth
the flower,

Out of Winter,
Spring

Death cannot hold forever,
anything.
