UNPUBLISHED OBITUARY HUNTER, MARJORIE ANN WISSINGER 11 November 1938 – 7 September 1988 Marjorie Ann Wissinger Hunter, a generous, kind, caring, compassionate and loving daughter, sister, wife, mother, and friend, was born on 11 November 1938 in Altoona, Blair County, PA to Walter James and Kathleen (Foust) Wissinger and passed to her eternal glory on 7 September 1988 after a long, valiant struggle with breast cancer. Marjorie was twice married, first to Tuncay Pazarbashi in 1954 in Ankara, Turkey. From this union her son Theodore James (TJ) Pazarbashi was born on 22 June 1955. After a long separation, Marjorie and Tuncay were divorced. On 18 December 1965 Marjorie married George Stephen Hunter in San Diego, California. During this marriage, George legally adopted Theodore James in California. This marriage ended in February 1975 in Los Angeles County, CA. George S. Hunter died on 11 January 2008 in Spring Valley, San Diego County, CA. Some years after her divorce from George, Marjorie met Edward Lee Cross. They were constant companions until his death on 14 July 1987 in Orange County, CA. An accomplished artist, clothing designer and interior decorator, Marjorie could always be depended upon to assist her friends and family in purchasing, modifying, and coordinating clothing and furnishings to present the best possible impression for any occasion.

Wissinger; aunt, Shirley Ulrich; cousin, Joseph Luckner; brother-in-law, Daniel Witkoff; nephew, Edward Powers; niece, Shannon Powers; Eric Cross; 1st husband, Tuncay Pazarbashi; and Eugene Kar, captain of the boat.

Just curious--is the Farabaugh family you've been referencing related to Lorraine (I think that was her first name) Farabaugh who was an English teacher at Central Cambria in Ebensburg? I had her in high school and she taught me a lot. Not sure if she's still around. _________________________________________________________________ When your life is on the go—take your life with you. http://clk.atdmt.com/MRT/go/115298558/direct/01/

If anyone will be or is in Johnstown, would someone get me a copy of two obituaries from the Johnstown Tribune? Will pay for any costs associated. I'm looking for Joseph R Himmer and Martha E Himmer. Joseph's obit according the index was in the Tribune on Sept 9, 1949 and Martha's I believe Oct 6 1988. If family rumor is true, there may be an article about Joseph's death, my Grandfather always said he died in an accident at Bethlehem steel, falling into a vat of molten steel. What a horrible way to die it it's true. Again will pay expenses, thanks in advance for your assistance. Frank Bobak

MAN FOUND DEAD IN MINE; WORKED ALONE AT NIGHT Frank Maus, 63, of Dean Township Believed Victim of Heart Ailment ILL FOR SOME TIME ASHVILLE, Feb. 15--Frank Maus, aged 63, dean Township was found dead this morning in the F. A. Garman mine in Dean Township where he had been working alone during the night. Henry Garman found the body when he went into the mine about 8:30 o'clock. Dr. E. C. Fleck, who was called immediately, said death apparently had been due to heart disease. The body lay in one of the rooms in the mine about 50 feet from a partly-filled coal car. A little less than half a ton of coal was found in the car, leading to the belief that Mr. Maus, who entered the mine about 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon, had died about 8 o'clock last evening. Dr. Fleck said he had been treating the victim for some time for a heart ailment. The heart trouble, he said, started three or four months age. Frank Maus, who was unmarried, lived about a block away from the mine. In recent months he worked alone in the mine at nights, making a practice of going in about the time the regular force quit work. The body was turned over to W. A. Gibbons, local mortician. Notified of the case by Dr. Fleck, Coroner Cyrtus Davis of Conemaugh said he would be in Ashville this afternoon to make an investigation. <this is not the Frank I was looking for. I hope someone else can use it.>
