Obituary- Startup, Garelton 2

Garley Crit Startup was born May 13, 1893, at Duke Okla., lost his life Oct. 24, 1922, from injuries received when Union Pacific train No. 106 crashed into his auto on a crossing at Kingsville, Kansas, aged 29 years, 5 months and 11 days.

He was the eldest son of J.C. and Esther Startup and was brought to Rossville at the age of two years and grew to manhood in this vicinity. For the past four years he with his family have occupied a farm south of Kingsville.

He was united in marriage January 31, 1912, to Agnes Reser, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. B.F. Reser. To this union two children were born, Averl and Velma, who with the widow survive to mourn his untimely death.

In 1915 he affiliated with the United Brethren church. His funeral was held in the Rossville Methodist church, Saturday Oct. 28, conducted by the Rev. Job Wykert, a U.B. minister and assisted by the Rev. Basquin.

The pall bearers were Lawrence and Bido Mitchell, Leo Cooley, Harold Herrington, William Lambert and Paul Small.

Beside the wife and children he is survived by his father, J.C. Startup, the mother, Mrs. Esther Strahn, three brothers, Harry of Topeka; Fred and Myron of Rossville; and two half-brothers, Hallie of Silver Lake; and Walter of Newton.

Garley dear has gone from us,
A voice we love is stilled;
A place is vacant in our home
That never can be filled.
