Albert Theo Marchbanks
11-14-1929 – 11-26-2020

Our beloved father left us behind on Thanksgiving Day as he headed off to "the big golf course in heaven." We were blessed to have a kind, gentle, devoted father who was loved by so many. As a lifetime PGA golf professional, he was known by most as simply "pro". If you met him, you would be comforted by his ease and entertained by his stories of golfing across the globe. The stories of people and how much he liked everyone-and they him- told of his character. Never an unkind word or disparaging remark.

He left behind his children Greg, Shari, and Felicia and one sister, Catherine. Our father had precious grandchildren, nieces, nephews, cousins as well as many friends he cherished, and he will be missed.

His career was service in the Air Force for twenty years and his love of being a PGA golf professional for over fifty years.

Due to COVID-19 a service is not planned at this time.

Mrs. Ben Marney dies in home fire
Mrs. Edna Marney, 58, of Rossville died early Wednesday morning from results of a fire that nearly burned her home to the ground.

Rossville Fire Department answered the alarm turned in by neighbors of Mr. and Mrs. Ben Marney at 2:30 a. m. Wednesday. When firemen arrived at the scene the front portion of the small three room home was in flames.

Four hoses were put on the flames and it was not until about 45 minutes later that Mrs. Marney was found, fully clothed, in the bathroom of the home. Earlier, her husband, who fled the flames, said he didn't know where she was. Although the flames were confined to the front two rooms of the home, Mrs. Marney suffered burns about her face, arms and legs. She probably died from smoke and heat.

The fire was believed to have started in the front room in the southeast corner and quickly spread to the wall and roof. It is possible a cigarette in a chair in that location could have started the fire. Mrs. Marney may have been trying to fight the fire herself and in leaving the home took the door to the bathroom which is next to the back door. She was pronounced dead on arrival at a Topeka hospital.

Mrs. Marney was born in Valencia on October 26, 1902 and had lived in Rossville the past 40 years. She is survived by her husband, Ben B. Marney of Rossville; one son, Staff Sgt. Dean Marney of the U. S. Air Force in England; one daughter, Louise Sebring of Arizona; her father, Bob Alexander of Topeka; two brothers, Edward Alexander of Wichita, and Vernon Alexander of Texas; and five grandchildren.

Burial will be in Rossville Cemetery with Hurley Funeral Home in charge of arrangements.

DEATH CAUSE FOR HAROLD MARNEY, 47, UNKNOWN
The body of a missing Richland hunter, lost in the Blue mountains since Friday noon was located on the main trail of Pope canyon about 1 1/2 miles above the settling basin in Oregon late Saturday morning, Sheriff A. A. Shick reported.

Shick said the body of Harold Marney, was located by two hunters in the area. The cause of death was not known.

Sheriff’s officers and the coroner were enroute to the scene at noon but the trip is fairly long and difficult and no word was expected before late afternoon.

Marney, employed by General Electric Co., was the object of one of the most intensive ground and aerial searchers in recent Southeastern Washington history. Sheriff A. A. Shick said Saturday.

A member of an elk hunting party of three, he had been missing in the Blue mountains since Friday morning, Shick said.

Marney was reported missing Friday evening by his two companions, Russell Rhodes and R. Estronge, also of Richland. They told Shick that he disappeared in the vicinity of Pope Canyon, the entrance of which is located near Kooskookie.

Shick said the three men started out Friday morning and separated at what they called the “first forks” planning to meet that evening.

When Marney failed to meet them at the appointed spot the two men returned to Walla Walla and notified the sheriff at 6:30 p.m.

Shick said the search was started Friday night when two of the Klicker brothers worked the area until midnight without finding any trace of the man. They said there was a light blanket of snow on the ground and they thought they saw tracks although the wind was extremely heavy.

Signals from guns failed tract any attention, members search party said.

Saturday morning 25 Walla Walla and Richland men headed by deputy Sheriff Andy Shoun combed the mountain areas and a plane piloted by Cliff Lincoln of the Sky Ranch made several flights over the region.

Officers said Marney was adequately dressed and was an experienced hunter. He carried all the necessary equipment. They expressed the opinion that he may have suffered a heart attack or was injured in some manner.

The above account is from the Richland daily paper.

Harold is survived by his wife, Jean and 2 children, Teddie and Lauralee. Also by two sisters, Mrs. Rena Patton of Rossville and Mrs. Ruth Manes, of Ogden, Utah; four brothers, Glen of Rossville; Dudley of Casper, Wyo.; Clyde of Centerville, Iowa; Howard of Delia.

Funeral services were held on Wednesday afternoon, December 6, in, Richland, Wash.; and he was buried there.
He left here four years ago. He was born in September 1917.

Do not ask us if we miss him,
For there is such a vacant place;

Or we see his smiling face.
