MRS. RON BIBLER DIED JULY 17 OF INJURIES FROM CAR ACCIDENT
Many friends in the Bitter Root joined family members in shocked sorrow upon hearing of the death of Mrs. Ronald Bibler at 9:45 pm July 17. Mrs. Bibler was en route to the home of her daughter, Mrs. Dennis (Helen) Jones at Flathead Lake Lookout Museum near Lakeside. Highway patrolmen reported that the northbound car driven by Mrs. Bibler collided with the rear of another car driven by Gary Burland, 27 of Pablo who had slowed down to make a left turn off Highway 93 into a camp ground area. It is suspected that the sun blinded Mrs. Bibler so that she did not even see the Burland car.
Rosary was said Sunday evening at St. Francis Church and requiem Mass Monday morning for Mrs. Bibler with Father James Burns officiating. Interment was in Lone Pine cemetery beside the grave of her late husband. Melba Ogg was organist and Wayne Chambers of Seattle presented guitar music. Pallbearers were Barney Billings, Bruce Blahnik, George Vogt, Don Schallenberger, Douglas Gallbraith, and Ernie Wales. Honorary pallbearers were Fred Roberts, Clint Roberts, Lee Hahn, Joe O'Meara, Kris Wales, and Bud Myrdal.
Pauline Kerlee Hayward was born June 26 in Hamilton, daughter of Dr. and Mrs. Herbert (Grace) Hayward. She made her home in Darby with her uncle and aunt, Bert and Anna Z. Kerlee, attended school there and was a graduate with the class of 1933.
Her marriage to Ronald Troyer Bibler took place in Darby, July 15, 1933. The late Rev. E.T. Thorn officiated. Their witnesses were Bert and Anna Kerlee. They made their home in Darby where he was manager of the Waleswood, Inc. sawmill and for many years she was bookkeeper there. She was an accomplished musician for many years in church, school, and at other events. She had lately taken brush-up lessons. She was a member of St. Francis Church, active in the Elks Ladies, and Bitter Root Duplicate Bridge club. She participated in four bridge marathons during the past four years.
