Last Rites Conducted for Geroge C. Eakins Sunday
Funeral rites for George C. Eakins, Elk City, were conducted Monday at 2:30 p.m. from Fairview Baptist Church, Elk City with Reverend Jess Rowley officiating.
Born April 22, 1889 in Quannah, Texas, Mr. Eakins died Saturday July 9 in an Elk City hospital.
He had been a resident of the state and Roger Mills County since he was seven years old. He moved to Elk City in January. In 1912 he was married to Della Rippey in Roger Mills County. She died in 1934 and in 1957 he was married to Thelma Morrow, who survives. His church preference was Baptist.
Survivors, other than his wife, Thelma of the home, include four children, Mrs. C. I. Wilson, Scottsdale, Arizona; Mrs. Doyle Farni, Elk City; Vade Eakins, Sanger, California and Joe Eakins of Hammon; three sisters, Mrs. Mildred Lacy of Cheyenne: Mrs. Grace Grebes, Wichita, Kansas and Mrs. Hattie Compton, Lipan, Texas; seven grandchildren and four great grandchildren.
Burial was in the Kiowa Cemetery under direction of Martin Funeral Home of Elk City.
Note: The above is the only obituary I was able to find on this Eakins family. Mr. Jim Eakins died in 1918 at the age of 73 years. His widow Mary lived with her son George until her death in 1937.
