Daniel R Rhodes Dies Suddenly
The sudden death of Daniel R Rhodes sixty-four years of age, more familiarly known as "Bud," Tuesday morning came as a severe shock to his wife, his relatives and his many friends. He had not enjoyed good health for two years past and for the last two months had been more or less confined to his home.
Tuesday morning shortly before 10:30 o'clock he started to the chicken coop to care for the chickens and was found by his wife's son, Roy Robinson. Mr Robinson summoned help and immediately carried him into the house but life was extinct.
Mr Rhodes is a native of Lehi, having been born there August 30th, 1860. His parents were Alonzo D and Sarah Jane Lawrence Rhodes. He was resident of Lehi until his marriage to Miss Beulah Adams of American Fork, December 3, 1890, after which he moved to American Fork where he has since resided.
His wife died in December 1897, leaving two small sons, Arza Rhodes who now resides in Provo and Alonzo, (Lonnie) Rhodes of American Fork.
On March 8, 1900, he married Hannah Robinson of American Fork, who survives. For many years Mr Rhodes was a cattle man of prominence and later went into the sheep business, in which he engaged until his health compelled his to remain at home. He possessed a jovial disposition, was a kind neighbor, and a friend to all.
Surviving him are his widow, two sons mentioned above, one sister, Mrs Olive White of Idaho Falls, Idaho, the following half brothers and sisters: A D Rhodes and Elmer Rhodes of Lehi, Frank Rhodes of Rigby, Idaho, Mrs Matt Peterson of Lehi, Mrs John Smith of American Fork, Mrs Arvena Wilcox and Mrs Louis Amundsen of Salt Lake, Mrs George Briggs of Rigby, Idaho, Mrs William Nyberg of Newdale, Idaho, Mrs Ephraiam Empey of Idaho Falls, Mrs Rose Green of Idaho, and Mrs Henry Howes of Magrath, Alberta, Canada. Three stepchildren also survive: Roy Robinson of American Fork, Mrs C E Wright of Eureka and Mrs Truss Bobell of Harriman.
The Fourth ward chapel was well filled Friday afternoon when the services were held, commencing at 1 o'clock, The many beautiful flowers paid silent tribute to the high respect and esteem is which the deceased was held.
Counselor Lot Robinson was in charge of the services which were opened by a quartet consisting of Mrs Vernon Houston, Mrs Earl Wright, George H Hansen and C E Watson singing "I Need Thee Every Hour." Marvin Hansen offered the invocation after which the quartet rendered "Beautiful Isle." Additional musical selections consisted of a vocal solo "O Dry Those Tears" by Miss La Rue Robinson accompanied by Milton Brown on the violin and Miss Eva Stice on the piano; a vocal duet, "Waiting" sung by Mrs Earl Wright and C E Watson, and the closing selection by the quartet, "We Shall Meet Beyond The River."
The speakers were Dr James M Grant, Bishop Earl B Greenwood, Clifford E Young and Pres. James H Clarke, George H Hansen pronounced the benediction.
Interment took place in the cemetery here and Lot Robinson dedicated the grave.
