William C. Pease Dies of Heart Attack Friday


William Campbell Pease, 65, died suddenly at 6:45 P. M., Friday, June 18, at his home, 327 E. Spruce Street.

He was seated at his desk, working on plans of a construction job, when he was stricken with a heart attack.

Son of the late Charles and Sophia Pease, he was the last of one of the oldest families of this city.

His mother, born in the Sault, lived to the age of 91 and her brother, the late William LaLonde, died in 1947 with a few week of reaching the age of 100.

He was known as "Bill" to young and old, and was known to almost everyone in town. Born and raised in the Sault, he attended the old Baraga school of St. Mary's parish and learned his plumbing trade here. Big work was Bill's fancy. He supervised the plumbing and steam fitting work in the construction of the Ford Motor Company plant at Iron Mountain. In 1932, he returned to the Sault and since then has been operating a plumbing and steam fitting business here.

He is survived by his wife, Maude; one daughter, Mrs. Ruth Ayers and two grandchildren, William and Laurie Ann Ayers, all of the Sault.

He was a member of St. Mary's church, the Knights of Columbus and the BPOE.

The body rests at the home, 327 E. Spruce street, where prayers will be said Sunday evening at 8 o'clock.

Funeral services will be held at St. Mary's church on Monday morning at 10;30, the Rev. Joseph E. Guertin officiating.

Honorary pallbearers will be Philip Jacobs, Fred LaPointe, Fred Schaefer, Leo LeLievre, Frank and Orlando Pingatore, Guy Kemp, J. A. Burns, James Henderson and Harold Settergren. Active bearers will be employees of Mr. Pease: John McCarthy, Earnest Klein, Wilford Wilds, Jr., Lloyd Wagner, Arthur Elliott and Frank Joseph.

Burial will be in Riverside cemetery
