The young couple were met at Mojave while on a trip to Las Vegas and told of the bride's father's death.

A native of Tripolitan, Greece, he was the owner of the Economy Mercantile Store and also had extensive real estate interests. In an effort to revive the striken man a resusitator was used without success. His relatives reported that he had suffered another heart attack about three years ago. He is survived by his widow, Bessie; his daughter; a son, George of Tehachapi; a sister, Helen, and a brother, Bill of Tehachapi. Funeral services will be conducted at 10 a.m. Friday by Masonic Lodge in Tehachapi and the graveside services will. be held at Greenlawn Mortuary, Bakersfield by officials of St. George's' Church.
