    Obituary:

    R. H. Brothers, 55, died about noon Sunday at the Baylor County Hospital, where he had been a patient since Thursday of last week. It is believed that kidney poisoning may have been the occasion of his death. Since he became stricken he had not regained consciousness, nor had he made a movement of any kind.

    Funeral services were held at the Church of Christ Monday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock. Conducting was Minister D. L. Ashley of Munday and Minister R. L. Ashley of Seymour. Special music was given by a quartet composed of Mr. and Mrs. B P. Franklin, Howard Studer and S. Cowner.

    Interment was in the Riverview cemetery, with the following pallbearers, who are nephews of the deceased: Edward Bryant, W. A. Beaver Jr., Robert Nix, Orval Brothers, Charles Beaver and Wilburn King.

    Those attending the services from a distance were: Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Bryant and son, Hillis, and daughter, Mrs. B. H. High, and her daughter, and Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Bryant, all of Seagraves; Mr. and Mrs. B. J. Gross from Andrews; Mr. and Mrs. E. J. Bryant and a daughter of J. B. Bryant from Houston; Marvin Brothers and four daughters from Wichita Falls; Mr. and Mrs. Joe Beaver, W. A. Beaver and son W. A. Jr., from Burkburnett.

    Mr. Brothers was born August 23, 1893 in Bell County, his parents being Mr. and Mrs. J. T. Brothers. The family came to Baylor County in 1906, settling in the Cache Creek community, and that was Rhaud's home for the greater part of his life. He was a veteran of World War I, serving in the army from August of 1917 to Jun of 1919. He was overseas a good part of this time, and served with honor in a machine gun battalion in the battles of the Meuse-Argonne campaign.

    Soon after getting back home the deceased was married to Miss Ada Beaver of Cache Creek, and for a number of years they made their home on the farm. During the past several years Mr. Brothers had not been in good heath, and spent part of his time in the Veteran's Hospital at Amarillo. For the past 18 months he had been confined to his bed.

    Surviving are his wife and four children as follows: Miss Lucille Brothers, who is a nurse at the hospital here; Robert, who is at home; Mrs. Doris Holt, who lives at Fort Worth; and Mrs. Orvey Priddy of Seymour. Mrs. Holt and family came when her father became seriously ill.

    Also surviving are the following brothers and sisters: Sam, Buford and Bernie Brothers, all of Seymour; Mrs. T. R. Nix of Seymour, Marvin Brothers of Wichita Falls and Mrs. J. B. Bryant of Seagraves.

    Mr. Brothers was a member of the Church of Christ, and took an active part in the work of his church. He was a splendid citizen in every way and did his part in holding up the banner of righteousness and doing what good he could do in the world. He will be greatly missed from the place he occupied in this community.

    Bernie Brothers Services Held At Fort Worth December 8th

    Mr. Bernie A. Brothers, 67, residing at 3713 Laughton, Fort Worth, Texas, passed away December 7, 1972 at 1:30 p.m. He was driving his car in Seminary South, Ft. Worth, when he had a fatal heart attack. Evidently he was aware this was an unusual seizure because he pulled the car up to the curb, turned off the ignition, then slumped to the seat, where upon the ambulance found him, after being summoned by a passerby. Thus, his alertness probably avoided an accident.

    Funeral services were held at the Highland Church of Christ, 6262 South Freeway, Ft. Worth, Saturday, December 9th, 1972, at 2:00 p.m. Officiating ministers were Mr. J. Woodie Holden and Mr. Loren Geiger. Burial was in Laurel Land Cemetery, under the direction of Ray Crowder Funeral Home.

    Bernie was a devout Christian and radiated this spirit in his everyday existance. He was an ordained Deacon at the Highland Church of Christ, wherein he served loyally and fervently. He was born July 2, 1905 at Waco, Texas; moved to Seymour in 1907 where he married Vera Ellen Ross on June 5, 1926. to this union were born three children (one daughter, and two sons). This family moved to Vallejo, California in 1944 where Mr. and Mrs. Brothers each worked in the U.S. Navy Yard on Mare Island. They returned to Seymour in 1946. Later they purchased a farm and moved to Joshua, in 1952, after which Mr. Brothers purchased and operated a Washerteria, and moved to Forth Worth in 1957. Their recent home is located at 3713 Laughton, Ft. Worth. He was survived by his widow, Vera, a daughter, Mrs. Dolores Petty of Forth Worth, two sons, Eidsel and Royce of Joshua, and seven grandchildren, one sister, Mrs. Maudie Nix of Seymour, and many nieces and nephews.

    Mr. Brothers wealth of friends was manifested in the numerous amount of floral offerings, which were arranged on three large arches extending across the entire chancel. The sanctuary was filled to capacity with those many friends, expressing their deep sympathy to the family and indicating their love for this good fellowman.

    The bereaved family find solace in these words:

    "There is a Home that lies beyond -
    And past its golden door
    Awaits the one who's now away
    Not lost-just gone before.
    And in that Home that lies beyond
    The Master will prepare
    A place for us, and when He calls
    We'll meet our loved one there."

    Dolores Petty
