Roy Barlow


Husband and Mother of Mrs. Roy Barlow Die the Same Day

Mrs. Roy Barlow was doubly bereaved last Thurs., Jan. 7, by the sudden death early that morning of her husband, and the death that evening of her mother, Mrs. Anna Mumma.

Mr. Barlow's death was caused by heart trouble which he had discovered he was suffering from, only a week before. He had continued in his work as a shipping clerk at the Hanlon Paper Company where he had been employed for 34 years. In the morning as he was eating breakfast, the telephone rang, and he went to answer it as Mrs. Barlow said she feared it was bad news from her mother who had been seriously ill for some time. Mr. Barlow suffered a hemorrhage, and died at once. Mrs. Mumma lived until that evening.

Roy Barlow was the son of Charles, and Anna Barlow, and was born June 30, 1887, in Barnesville where he spent his entire life. He was a man of the finest character and held great esteem and regard in this city.

Besides his wife, formerly Miss Pearl Mumma, Mr. Barlow is survived by two sisters Mrs. Cora Helm, and Miss Daisy Barlow of East Main Street, and two nephews. The funeral services were held from the Campbell Funeral Home Saturday afternoon at 2 o'clcok. They were conducted by Rev. C. Clare Davis pastor of the First Methodist Church, and interment was made in the Southern Cemetery.
