| Wickenburg Sun, Wickenburg, Arizona - July 24, 1947 DEATH TAKES BEN DOSSEY Young Resident Here Since 1945 Summoned In nearly two years as a resident of Wickenburg, Ben Dossey made many friends, all of whom were grieved at the news of his death last Saturday morning, January 18, in Community Hospital here where he had been a patient since early in the month. His death was due largely to a kidney ailment, complicated by high blood pressure. Mr. Dossey was born December 26, 1916, in Moberly, MO., and was educated in the schools there. He later moved with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. G. C. Dossey, and sister, to Gary, Ind., where he was employed as a bookkeeper with Gary bus lines. Coming to Wickenburg in april, 1945, he was employed in a similar capacity by Hal Warner, consigned of the Texas Oil company in this area. Ill health forced him to give up work several weeks ago and his condition was serious when he was admitted to the hospital At her sons bedside when death came was Mrs. Dossey, who arrived the previous Monday from her home in Gary and stayed while here with Mr. and Mrs. Pinnell. The mother accompanied the body back to Moberly Sunday evening where funeral services were to be held Wednesday of this week. The parents and the sister are the only close survivors. |
