CEDARSTAFF, Victor

The Wickenburg Sun, Wickenburg, AZ January 9, 1986, p. 8 Victor Cedarstaff, 81, a well-known winter visitor to Wickenburg for more than 20 years, died Dec. 29 at the Brookcrest Nursing home in Wyoming, Mich. Cedarstaff was preceded in death by his wife, Maribelle, a little over two years ago. Cedarstaff was known as the “Bola Tie man” all over American and the bola tie that he presented to former Arizona Governor Jack Williams was on the Arizona road map for years. Several years ago Wickenburg honored Cedarstaff as grand marshall of their annual Gold Rush Days Parade. He is survived by his son, Burton and daughter-in-law, Loreen, of Bethel, Va.; six grandchildren and five great-grandchildren. Per his request, Cedarstaff was cremated and his ashes were scattered over the Jack and Jill Ranch near Rothbury, Mich., where the Cedarstaffs spent their summers. The family requests no cards or memorial offerings.
