Funereal Held Wednesday in Second Ward; Interment at Manti


Joseph B. Allen, 52, died of a sudden heart attack at his home here Sunday. He had seemed in normal health and was mowing his lawn when he was stricken.


Mr. Allen was born December 5, 1881, at Birmingham England. He came to this country as a young man and for some time made his home at Nephi. Later he moved to Mammoth, where he was married to Elizabeth Forsey September 5, 1905. In 1929 the family came to Richfield, where Mr. Allen has been connected with and ice plant and distributing business.


Surviving are the widow; one son, Kenneth J.

Funeral services were held Wednesday afternoon in the Second ward chapel, with Bishop W. L. Warner in charge.


Speakers were Roy Maller of Manti, G. W. Coons, D. C. Forsey and Newell K. Young, all of whom stressed Mr. Allen's character traits of honesty and dependability and the pleasantness of disposition which won for him many friends.


Musical numbers were the selections, "Always With Us," by a quartet composed of Mrs. Helen Poulson, Mrs. Florence Anderson, H. B. Mendenhall and Lynn W. Fawns; "One Fleeting Hour," a vocal solo by Mrs. Poulson; "The Perfect Day," by Mrs. Poulson, Mrs. Anderson and Mrs. Margaret Blomquist. Stanley R. Brain played a piano selection as the second number.


The invocation was by J. L. Sevy Jr.; the benediction by C. W. Powell, Jr.

A large number of relatives and friends attended the services and sent beautiful floral tributes.
