ARTHUR
The Flanagan-Watts Funeral Home
OUILDA FRANCES ARHUR GREEN
Ouilda Arthur Petty Green, 97, of Ardmore, Oklahoma, passed away on December 9,
2013 at Mercy Love County Hospital in Marietta. Ouilda was born on May 9, 1916
in Illinois Bend, Texas. She was the 3rd child of Russell and Myrtle Arthur of
Leon, Oklahoma. Her early years were spent on the family farm. She worked and
played alongside all of her brothers and sisters and had many fond memories of
her siblings. Ouilda attended school at Leon where she met her future husband,
Garnet Petty. She and Garnet were married in Marietta on July 1, 1931. She often
mentioned how she married the most handsome boy in Leon. Their marriage was
blessed with four children, Media June, Garnet Wallace (Buddy), Norma Jean, and
Brenda Jane. Ouilda and Garnet lived in Leon where they grew peanuts, cotton,
and corn. She also found time to raise hogs and chickens. She was known around
the county as an excellent seamstress. Ouilda designed and made baby clothes
that she sold during The Depression. Her baby clothes were ordered by people
from all parts the country. Her life was turned upside down on September 9, 1956
when her husband, Garnet, unexpectedly died at the age of 44. She sold their
home in Leon and moved with her youngest daughter to Topeka, Kansas. Ouilda then
began her career as a florist at Stanley’s Flowers. She worked as a florist for
42 years in Topeka, Tulsa, Marietta and Ardmore. She designed flowers for Harry
Truman, Gerald Ford, and several Kansas governors. Ouilda married John Norman
Green on July 20, 1968 in Topeka, Kansas. John was a minister with the Methodist
Church, recently assigned to a church in Robinson, Kansas. While in Robinson,
John taught her how to drive. This began her love for cars. Tragically, their
life together was short lived as he died just two years later on August 8, 1970.
She spent the last 44 years of her life in Carter and Love Counties. She loved
to work in her yard, design flowers, and make quilts. Her favorite pastimes were
watching NASCAR and the Texas Rangers. In 2000, Ouilda moved to Ardmore. The
last few years of her life were her happiest as she was able to live with her
family. She loved being around family and loved getting to spend time with her
great-great grandchildren. Ouilda was a woman of great faith and she set an
example for her family. She loved reading her bible and in her earlier years
taught Sunday school. At the time of her death, she attended Victory Life Church
Ardmore. In addition to her husbands, Ouilda was preceded in death by her

MELVIN WILSON CREECH
Melvin Wilson Creech, 84, of Castle Hayne, NC, died at 4:00 a.m. on Friday,
February 16, 2018, in his home, surrounded by loving family. Melvin was born May
11, 1933, in Johnston County, NC, son of the late William Vester Creech and
Katie Jackson Creech. His daughter, Vicki Creech Williams, grandson, Justin
Alexander Creech, two brothers, and two sisters preceded him in death. Melvin
was the second youngest of six children raised in rural North Carolina. His
father was a tenant tobacco farmer and relied on his children to help on the
farm. Melvin met his wife, Lavonda, in a church service in Norfolk, VA, where
his brother attended. Melvin and Lavonda were married on September 1, 1954. He
entered the army soon after and was shipped to Germany, fortunately during peace
time. During his absence, his first child Steve was born. (Steve said): While
Steve was a "handful" as a growing teenager, he turned out to be a handsome
young man loved by all. Melvin also had two daughters. (Rita wrote): Melvin and
Lavonda raised three children, Steve, Rita, and Vicki. Of the many important
values they instilled in their children, possessing a true and deep love for God
and living by faith was the most important of all. Melvin and Lavonda taught
that by example. Their faithfulness to God and His Church has been the guiding
force throughout their lives. As you can see, Melvin's sense of humor lives on
in his children. Melvin began his post-army career working as a local truck
driver. He quickly advanced to sales, followed by a management position, and was
transferred from Norfolk, VA, to Rocky Mount, NC, in 1961, to manage a terminal
for Pilot Freight Carriers. He held several management positions over his
career, taking him to Rocky Mount, then to Wilmington, NC, Greenville, SC,
Chesapeake, VA, and finally back to Wilmington to eventually retire. Melvin and
Lavonda met in church and their entire lives together were centered around their
ministries in The Church of God, formerly The Church of God of Prophecy. Melvin
served in many positions in the Church from Sunday School Superintendent to
Deacon. He and Lavonda also volunteered in their retirement years to help in the
kitchen at many state and worldwide church camps and conventions. Both of their
lives have been devoted to serving God through serving others, traveling to
Belize, Mexico, Honduras, and other locations for mission work. Melvin enjoyed
fishing --- whether by boat, pole fishing, or even using a net or a gig. He
loved the outdoors and spent long hours in his garden, breaking soil with the
tractor (and who doesn't enjoy driving a tractor!) and working with a hoe. He
blessed his family and friends with many fruits and vegetables over the years.
Melvin also enjoyed singing and for years led congregational singing and sang
solos in church. Some of his favorite songs were the love songs he would sing to
Lavonda, such as "Let it Be Me." Melvin and Lavonda loved to travel together,
and have visited many states and countries over the years. Melvin is survived by
his loving wife of 63 years, Lavonda Ruth Shiflett; devoted son, Steve Wilson
Creech (Karen) of Richmond, VA; loving daughter, Dr. Rita Creech Haire (Darrell)
of Thomasville, NC; devoted son-in-law, James Steele Williams, III, of Castle
Hayne, NC; eleven dear grandchildren; seven precious great-grandchildren; his
last surviving sibling, sister, Katherine Creech Clark (John) of Raleigh, NC;
and numerous nieces and nephews. The family will receive friends from 6:00 p.m.
to 8:00 p.m. Monday, February 19, 2018, at Andrews Market Street Chapel. A
funeral service will be held at 11:00 a.m. on Tuesday, February 20, 2018, at The
Church of God, 246 Middle Sound Loop Road (Ogden area), with Pastor Bill O'Dell
officiating. A private graveside service will be held by the family.

LETHA M. CRICKENBERGER
Letha M.
Crickenberger, 95, who was owner of Money & King Funeral Home, one of the last
remaining independent family-run firms in the Washington area, died of
congestive heart failure April 22 at Northern Virginia Community Hospital in
Arlington. Mrs. Crickenberger was an 80-year-old retired beautician when she
inherited the Vienna funeral home from her sister, Edith King, when she died in
1986. The funeral home, which was established in 1881, has been at Maple Avenue
and Lawyers Road in Vienna since 1948. Mrs. Crickenberger's husband, DeWitt,
familiarized her with the business during the 30 years he managed the funeral
home, until his retirement in 1980. He died three years later. She had no other
hands-on business knowledge when she became the corporation's major stockholder
and president. Still, she oversaw the day-to-day operations and blocked attempts
by larger corporations to buy the small family-owned enterprise, a growing trend
in the mortuary industry. "Most people would have sold the place and gone
traveling," said her nephew Peter Vance Treibley, who is also vice president of
Money and King. "But she was determined to make it run no matter what, and to
keep it independent and family-owned." Until her health began to fail about six
months ago, she maintained a rigorous work schedule that included a
block-and-half walk from her home to the offices of Money & King seven days a
week for eight-hour days, Treibley said. With her background as a beautician,
she helped prepare the bodies for viewings by applying makeup and coiffures. She
also served as a greeter, receiving family and friends at the 400 to 500
funerals Money & King conducts a year. She was a native of Wilkes-Barre, Pa. As
a young woman, she sang in Vaudeville stage productions in Pennsylvania. She
settled in the Washington area during World War II and worked 20 years for
Vienna Beauty Shop. She was a member of Oakton Church of the Brethren and the
Order of the Eastern Star. She leaves no immediate survivors.

enlisted in the US Marine Corps on December 10, 1965 in Los Angeles CA. He
arrived in Vietnam and was assigned to Company A, 1st Battalion, 7th Marines,
1st MARDIV (Rein) FMF. In the early morning hours of December 8, a well-planned
and coordinated attack by the Viet Cong occurred against the CAC Lima-4
defensive position near Son Tra village, in Binh Son District. Silently several
of the enemy cut the protective wire and slipped inside, meanwhile, one of the
Vietnamese inside the compound who had been a VC agent opened up a gate for
another entry to the attackers. Once inside the sappers began to throw hand
grenades and satchel charges. The defenders battled back, their aggression and
determination broke the will of the VC sending them into retreat. Two Marines, a
USN Corpsman and five PF's were killed in the action; three Marines and one PF
were wounded and evacuated. PFC Foust was one of the casualties; he died as a
result of enemy gunshot wounds.

CHAZ GALLEGOS
1993 ~ 2017
It is with broken hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved son. Chaz
Gallegos, 24, a loving husband, daddy, son, brother, nephew, uncle and friend,
left us unexpectedly on July 26, 2017. Chaz was born on May 21, 1993 in West
Valley, Utah to Cheri Shiflett and Ricky Gallegos. He was raised and grew up in
Utah and upon graduation from high school, he met and married Dezirae on
November 14, 2014. Together they have one daughter, Sophia Rose Gallegos. Chaz
made sure his wife and daughters needs were always met. He worked hard to
provide for himself and his family. He was proud of the fact that he was making
things happen on his own. Hard work, perseverance and sacrifice in all things,
he willingly put onto himself to succeed in life. Never one to sit back and
whine about stuff, instead he would tell himself what do I need to do to fix
things and make things better. Always wanting to make things right. He carried
with him the values and principles that his grandparents and mom and dad
instilled into him throughout his life. Hard work, respect, dedication, positive
attitude, hope, kindness, strength and love. He tried to treat others as he
wanted to be treated. Always being there for his family and friends and never
wanting to disappoint them. He accomplished all these things with a fun-loving
attitude and a smile on his face. He had a confidence and trust within himself
and was grateful for and valued what he had. Chaz was wise beyond his years.
Chaz was a very private, independent, hardworking, intelligent, resilient,
fun-loving person. He was fiercely loyal to his family and friends. He always
strived to do the right thing. Always there to help or lend a hand. Chaz loved
little kids, loyal friends, good conversation, dinners and barbeques at his
house, his grandma's beans and tortillas, green chili, water fights, playing
games, his dogs, guns, shooting his guns, riding four wheelers, his tattoos,
keeping his truck looking good, taking care of his yard or just hanging out at
his house with family and friends, having a cold one together. He had a certain
happy go lucky attitude toward life and never tried to let everyday stupid,
meaningless problems in life bother him or get him down. Always looking to
better himself and his situation. Totally optimistic about life. Only wishing
for good things for himself and those around him. Chaz was a beautiful person
with a kind and gentle soul who loved and was loved by many people in his life.
We want to thank everyone for all their support, prayers and love during this
painful time. Survived by his wife, Dezirae; daughter, Sophia; mother and
father, Cheri and Ricky; sister, Cheany; uncles, Eddie, Brian, Chad, Tony;
grandparents, Joan and Joe; in laws, Delia and Glen; nieces, nephews, cousins
and friends. Preceded in death his grandparents, Martha and Elias; uncle,
Freddie. Chaz will be deeply missed by his family, but we take comfort in
knowing his grandparents, Martha and Elias, have found him and welcomed him
home. He truly loved and missed them dearly. Though our lives will never be the
same, we do look forward to being with Chaz again. May his memory be treated
with respect and dignity. Rest in Peace. Funeral services will be held on
Friday, Aug. 4, 2017 at 11:00 a.m. at St. Therese Catholic Church, 624 W. Lennox
St., Midvale. There will be a viewing on Thursday, Aug. 3, 2017 from 6-8 p.m. at
the church, with a rosary at 7:30 p.m. There will be a viewing one hour prior to
services at the church on Friday. Graveside service at Midvale City Cemetery,

served from 1942 to 1946 in the US Army during World War II. After receiving an
honorable discharge from the Army, Bertis attended Oklahoma State University
graduating in 1952 with a D.V.M. from the Veterinary Medicine School. After a

them into their family. After 45 years of marriage, Betty passed away on June

HENRY
The Patriot-News from Nov. 9 to Nov. 10, 2019
ANNA MAE HENRY ALGER
Nancy passed away on Friday, November 8, 2019 at Londonderry Village. Born on
December 30, 1931 in the Hershey Hospital to John W. Henry, Sr. and Lucille
Hazel Mae (Shifflett) Henry, Nancy grew up in Union Deposit where she made
lasting friendships which she recalled with much fondness. Nancy's passing
brings to a close a generation of Henrys having been preceded in death by her
brother John W. Henry, Jr. and numerous cousins. Nancy graduated from Hershey
High School, class of 1949. She was a proud 49'er and participated in the band
front supporting the undefeated football team and one of its players, John
Alger, her future husband. Nancy held lifelong friendships with The Card Club,
made up of her closest girlfriends from the class of '49. Rumor has it that they
stopped playing cards around the time their kids reached Junior High School age
as talking was more fun than playing cards. The remaining members continued to
meet for lunches until recently. Nancy's eyes would always light up at the
mention of Card Club. John and Nancy were married on July 13, 1952, at the Union
Deposit EUB church. Nancy became a fulltime wife at that time leaving her job at
the Department of Military Affairs in Harrisburg. She was the rock of the
family, supporting her husband and raising three children. Nancy gladly accepted
this role while John was active as a farmer, church leader, and longtime school
board member. Her children learned to appreciate how much she sacrificed to
provide a wonderful home. Nancy's childhood was not perfect, however, she was
blessed with a mother who worked at Hershey Chocolate for over 30 years to
provide for her children. Times might have been lean but the Henry children
always had enough to get by, especially when it came to stylish clothing. Nancy
continued this tradition with her children. She was determined that her "farm
kids" would always be dressed well. Her children recall fondly shopping trips to
the big cities of Lebanon and Harrisburg which included lunches and visits to
Wertz Candy Shop for Caramel Corn. Nancy is survived by her children, Steven
(Susan) Alger, Benson (Pam) Alger, Amy (Rev. Mark) Irvin; her grandchildren,
Brooks (Ashley) Alger; Hollis Alger, James Alger, Jonathan (Katie) Alger,
Jennifer (Craig) Wiley; her great-grandchildren, Henry and Audrey Alger;
brother-in-law Rev. Earl (Nancy) Alger and family of Hingham, MA; and many
cousins. A celebration of life ceremony will be held on Saturday, November 16,
2019 beginning at 5:00 PM at the Di Matteo Worship Center of Londonderry Village
led by The Rev. Dennis W. Garrison. A light buffet will be provided. Burial will
be private. The family wishes to thank the staff of Londonderry Village, Grane
Hospice, and Home Instead of Lebanon County for their extraordinary,
compassionate care of their mother. Additionally, we thank the "prayer group",
which supported her with cards, visits, and prayers. In lieu of flowers, the
family suggests that memorial contributions in honor and memory of Nancy be made
to Spring Creek Church of the Brethren, 335 E. Areba Ave., Hershey, PA 17033, or
The Good Samaritan Fund, c/o Londonderry Village, 1200 Grubb Road, Palmyra, PA
17078. Rothermel-Finkenbinder Funeral Home & Crematory, Inc., 25 West Pine
Street, Palmyra has been entrusted with the arrangements.

DEATH OF JOHN HUSSEY
John C. Hussey passed to the great beyond Tuesday, Nov. 19, 1912 at the home of
his son Hallie, after an illness lasting many months. Although death has been
expected it came as a great shock to relatives and friends. Death came as a
result of the hardening of the arteries, general debility and old age.
Deceased's health had been on the decline for the past two years or more, he
having spent last winter in the milder climate of Oklahoma in the hope of
recuperating. When he returned home last spring he said he felt better, but when
the excitement incident to travel was over, it was evident that the benefit was
only temporary and in spite of all that loving hearts and hands could do, he
failed rapidly from that time until the end. John C. Hussey was born near
Ashburton, North Carolina, April 26, 1841, died at Des Lacs, Nov. 19, 1912,
being 71 years, 6 months and 23 days old. He emigrated to Indiana when but a
young man and on September 18, 1862 enlisted in Company G. 99th Regiment of
Indiana Volunteers and went to the front. At the age of 21 he was promoted to
the rank of Corporal, later to that of 2nd Lieutenant which rank he held when
mustered out. After the war was over he emigrated to Missouri and was there
united in marriage to Susan F. Ballard. To this union five children were born,
namely: Mrs. D. C. Powers, Muskogee, Okla., Mrs. T. E. Fox, Bantry, N. D., J. W.
Hussey, H. H. Hussey and Mrs. Ed. Kincaid of Des Lacs. Brother Hussey was
converted at the age of 16 and lived a conscientious Christian life until his
death. He was a faithful friend, a loving father and a kind and gentle husband.
The funeral service was conducted from the Evangelical church at 12 o'clock Nov.
21, the Rev J. P. Driver, officiating by request of deceased.

and death of her husband last November, having had recurrent attacks of heart
trouble during the past six months, but of late had been feeling much better and
the first intimation Mr. and Mrs. Zimmermon had of anything wrong was when Mrs.
Hussey called to them at 6 o'clock that morning when they immediately summoned
medical aid but failing in that they applied the remedies at hand but to no
avail, and at 6:30 A.M. Mrs. Hussey passed away. The funeral was held at the
Evangelical church Tuesday afternoon, the Rev. Driver officiating. Interment at

service led him to over 30,000 volunteer hours with the Grand Junction Police
Department Victim's Advocate Program. Chuck also found a call giving his time to
the Western Colorado Suicide Prevention Foundation and HopeWest Hospice. Through
it all, he remained a vibrant member of his church, and a passionate supporter

taking homemade fudge to his friends. He delighted in reading, especially
westerns and books about ministry. Having a gift of writing, he wrote numerous
prayers that he shared without reservation. Up until his 92nd year, he enjoyed
exercising and seeing his friends at Crossroads Fitness downtown. He had a great
love of bridge, chess, photography, storytelling, and his beloved dog Casper.

School and went on to Washington State University (Go Cougs) where he earned his
Bachelors and then to Eastern Washington University for his Masters. On the day
of Graduation in Cheney he received a call from Pearson Education where he
worked for several years before moving on to new adventures. Chauncy had an
effect on many people in his lifetime. He had many accomplishments in his life
and it started at a young age academically and athletically. Between roller
hockey, soccer, baseball, ice hockey (3 on 3 hoops) it seemed like we were
always on the road traveling as a family. He made numerous friends over the
years and continued throughout young adulthood. He met Michelle at WSU, who
later became his wife and they had two sons, Cole Daniel (3) and Cameron Lee
(2). After over 10+ years she ended their relationship, although he loved her to
the end. Chauncy will be missed everyday by his mother, Laura Jean, father,
