Donald Brumm Killed Tuesday In Plane Crash

Mrs. Elsie Brumm was informed Tuesday by telegram from U. S. Air Force Headquarters in Washington, D.C. that her son, Airman First Class Donald M. Brumm, was killed that day as the result of an aircraft accident in Turkey.

In a telephone conversation later with her daughter-in-law who resides in South Carolina, Mrs. Brumm was informed that her son’s body would be sent by plane from Turkey to Fort Leavenworth, Kan., former home of the widow, where funeral services and burial will take place. The mother made arrangement Wednesday to fly to Fort Leavenworth.

Mr. Brumm was born in Kingsbury, Calif., May 14, 1929. He graduated from the Morristown Elementary School and attended the Wickenburg High School for three years.

He entered the Air Force in January 1950. He was a member of the Masonic Lodge here.

Surviving, in addition to the mother and widow, are a daughter, Donna, 3, a step-son Jackie; a step-daughter, Linda; one sister, Mrs. Elsie Verzani of Wickenburg; and two brothers, Omar L. Brumm of Glendale and Raymond M. Brumm of Hanford, Calif.
