| Wickenburg Sun, Wickenburg, AZ July 26, 1945, p. 1 Steve Loncar, Mine Owner, Is Dead At 77 Funeral To Be Friday Morning For 50-Year Resident of Arizona Death came early Wednesday morning at the Wickenburg Hospital to a well loved pioneer of this region, Steve Loncar, for the past 50 years a miner and prospector and who had accumulated in that half century many friends throughout all of Central Arizona. His death, at 77, was the result of the infirmities of old age. He had been ill several weeks but did not enter the hospital until July 19. Mr. Loncar, a native of Yugoslavia, whose wide flowing mustaches frequently bristled, but only in excitement-never in anger was part owner of the George Washington Mine in the Black Rock district near Constellation. His associate in that undertaking was Dr. W. J. Panyman of El Paso, Texas. Steve Loncar was an honorable man, a hard worker, a believer in justice and fair play and thoroughly devoted and loyal to the country of his adoption. When he is laid to rest Friday morning in the Wickenburg Cemetery, overlooking the hills which he knew and loved so well, following funeral services at the Wickenburg Chapel, it is expected many of his friends will gather to pay their last respect. The services will be at 9 o'clock. So far as is known, Mr. Loncar has no living relatives, either on this country or in Yugoslavia. See Also: Find a Grave |
