Nancy Elaine Ariail Kozlowski, Daughter of Jesse Ariail. Nancy Kozlowski, 50, of Embden, Maine, died unexpectedly at the Florida Hospital Waterman in Tavares, Fla., on February 5, 2009. She and her husband, Robert, were spending a few months in Florida to escape the harsh winter of . Mrs. Kozlowski was born in Greenville, S.C., on May 1, 1958, and was the daughter of Jesse Ariail and Nancy (Nichols) Cappotto. She attended Marblehead High School in Marblehead. While living in Massachusetts, she worked for the Zayre department store for several years, the place where she would meet her future husband, Robert. She married Robert Kozlowski on May 14, 1983, in Salem. She also became a CNA, working in this field for many years in Massachusetts and New Hampshire. Mrs. Kozlowski enjoyed photography and interior decorating. She was intrigued with the medical profession and became very knowledgeable in that field. She also liked to watch game shows and old movies, as well as play the slot machines in Connecticut and Las Vegas. She and her husband, Robert, loved to travel, especially within the United States, although they just recently spent their 25th wedding anniversary in Freeport, Bahamas, after having gone there for their honeymoon in 1983. Her love for her son, Kenneth, was unconditional, and her devotion and support to her husband was truly remarkable. She was also very devoted to the family dog, Sienna. Mrs. Kozlowski was diagnosed with a rare blood disease in 1983, which led to other various complications. She therefore was constantly fighting an uphill medical struggle. However, she endured daily and never let it interfere with her zest for life. She accomplished more in her 27-year battle than most would do in a lifetime. Her inner strength, will and drive were a true inspiration. To say she gave so much of herself for others is truly an understatement. For these reasons and countless others, her untimely death brings with it incredible shock and sadness to all who knew and loved her. This beautiful, thoughtful, selfless and remarkable woman will never be forgotten. Mrs. Kozlowski is survived by her husband of 25 years, Robert Kozlowski of Embden, Maine; one son, Kenneth Kozlowski of Windham, Maine; two sisters, Terry Ward and Heather Ariail of South Carolina; a brother, Bernard and his wife Marilyn Maurais of Corvallis, Ore.; and several nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles and grandparents in South Carolina, New Hampshire and Massachusetts. She also cherished the hundreds of friendships made in Maine since moving there in 1980. She was predeceased by her mother, Nancy Cappotto; her stepfather, Richard Cappotto; and a truly important part of her life, her aunt Bettie Ariail.

JAMES HENDRICKS, Husband of Ethel Smith, Luke Ariail family line. White Man Killed and Woman Assaulted in Crow Creek Section The most atrocious crime ever committed in Pickens county occurred at the old Parson’s mill place in the Crow Creek section, fourteen miles above Pickens, Monday night, when Floyd McCollums, a Negro killed James Hendricks, a white man, and committed rape upon a woman of Hendricks’ home, forcing the woman to remain with him until about daylight Tuesday morning. The woman informed a neighbor of the occurrence, but Sheriff Roark was not notified until about two o’clock Tuesday afternoon. Upon receipt of the information the sheriff and Policeman Nealey left for the scene of the crime. At this time the body of the dead man had not been found, but, Sheriff Roark found it about 3 o’clock, behind the barn, about thirty yards from Hendricks’ home. A hole had been knocked in the left side of his head, probably with a stick. About 1 o’clock Monday afternoon Hendricks and the Negro went together after some whiskey. Returning with the whiskey, the Negro then went somewhere after a , which he brought back to Hendricks’ house, where it was cooked and eaten. After supper, about 10 o’clock, the Negro pretended to see something in the yard, and he and the white man went out to see what it was. That was the last seen of Hendricks alive. The Negro returned to the house alone and forced the woman to remain with him until next morning. James Hendricks moved from Easley to Crow Creek only a few weeks ago and was not well known in that section, though it was known that his character was not of the best and not much importance was at first attached to the story of his disappearance, this causing the delay in notifying the sheriff. It is said that Hendricks and his wife did not get along together very well. At this time (Tuesday night) the Negro has not been captured. Officers and several citizens are scouring the country for him. We have been unable to learn the degree of excitement which prevails in the section where the crime was committed. McCollum is not well known in this section. (Source: The Pickens Sentinel, Jul 2, 1914. Note: James Hendricks died 29 Jun 1914 approximately 10 p.m.).

McCullum, Murderer, Landed in Columbia. The Pickens Sentinel, Jul. 9, 1914. Floyd McCullum, the Negro murderer who committed two flendish crimes in the Crow Creek section of Pickens county last week, was captured near Franklin, N.C., Friday morning by Sheriff R.R. Roark and Policman H.A. Nealey, of Pickens, who were accompanied by Dover Hinkle and Fred Whitmire, of the upper part of the county. The officers took the prisoner on a branch line railroad from Franklin to Cornelia, Ga., where they changed to the main line and carried the prisoner to Columbia. The people in Pickens knew nothing of the capture until the Negro was out of reach and well on the way to the penitentiary. The chase for the negro began Tuesday night and was incessant until the capture Friday morning, being conducted with great skill and fortitude. During that time the officers chased the fiend about 135 miles through swamps and mountains and slept but five hours and ate two meals. The Negro had a long start and at times the hunt seemed fruitless, but with courage and determination which you seldom hear of except in novels, the officers pushed on. He had inquired along his route the direction to Asheville, while at the same time he was headed for the Tennessee line. The officers came upon him in what is known as Sugar Fork, ten or fifteen miles from the Tennessee line in North Carolina. The Negro made no resistance when captured. He denied the crime, but admitted that he was in the neighborhood of the dead man’s home on Monday night. He is known by the names of Floyd McCullum, Alex McLain and Clate Humphrey. A reward of $300 had been offered for the capture of the Negro, Sheriff Roark offering to pay $50 and Gov. Blease $250. It is likely that the reward offered by the governor will be divided between Sheriff Roark and Chief Nealey. Pickens county was greatly stirred by the murder of Hendrix and a lynching could hardly have been averted had the Negro been brought to the Pickens jail. The Sentinel last week carried an account of the crimes, which occurred Monday night in the Crow Creek section. McCullum killed James Hendrix, a white man, and criminally assaulted a white woman in the same section. It was Tuesday afternoon before the sheriff heard of the crimes. The verdict of the coroner’s jury was that “James Hendrix came to his death caused by some blunt instrument believed to have been in the hands of one Floyd McCullum.” (Note: Floyd McCullum was found guilty of the crimes and died in the Electric Chair.)

OTTO CLARK, Husband of Opal Mae Hinton, Climelia Abigail Ariail Family Line. DUEL ENDS LIFE OF TWO ROGERS COUNTY FARMERS AFTER ARGUMENT. Lewis Bessem And Otto Clark Met In Gun Battle At The Bill Dye Farm In Wingonon District Friday Evening; Shooting Fatal To Both Men. HAD BEEN HAVING TROUBLE OVER LAND RENTALS; NO EYE-WITNESSES TO FRAY. Just Like Days In Early West, They Met And Both Began Firing; Local Officers Investigate But Are Holding

No One In Connection With Affair. ------Lewis Bessem, 37, and Otto Clark, 28, are dead at Chelsea as the result of a shooting affray which occurred at the farm of Bill Dye, near Wingonon school house between Chelsea and Talala, Friday evening. It is said that the men had been having trouble for several months over the rental of lands. According to officers, Bessem, who is known to many Claremore and Inola, people, pointed a gun at C. Clark, Otto Clark’s father several days ago, after a heated argument. They were separated by friends. The men, both armed, met at the Dye farm Friday night and although they were no eye witnesses to the tragedy, both men are believed to have begun firing immediately. Clark is said to have fired four shots, all of which entered Bessem’s body. The latter fired five times, four of his bullets taking effect. Both men were dead before medical attention could be summoned. Clark is survived by a wife and four children, besides his parents. Bessman is reports as “not married,” though he was once married to Faye Lauthers, an Inola girl, and lived there for a while. They later separated. She re-married and he came back and administered a flogging to his successor to her affections, who promptly left the country. County Attorney Dennis Bushyhead and Sheriff Faulkner, with Deputy Hurt Flippin, hastened to the scene of the trouble and questioned a farmer giving his name as Joe Smithy, with whom Bessman lived; also Coty Wallace, said to be the owner of the gun used by one of the dead men was questioned. Neither of these men were held. Dye, who is an industrious farmer of the Wingonon district is in no way connected with the tragedy, which unfortunately occurred at his farm. The principals merely happened to meet there, and there the tragedy occurred. Several phone calls were made by the Claremore Progress in an effort to get more of the details of this shooting, which were unfruitful. Funeral arrangements for Clark and Bessman have not been announced as yet.

DR. LOWELL B. FURMAN, Luke Ives Ariail Family Line. Dr. Lowell B. Furman, 74, of 695 Trillium Ridge, Boone, died Friday, Dec. 08, 2006, at Watauga Medical Center. He was active in many aspects of life, but what was foremost in his desires was his love of his Lord Jesus Christ. If Lowell ever participated in any endeavor, he usually ended up being in charge of getting it done. He saw the need of sending physicians to mission hospitals around the world and became co-founder of World Medical Missions. He was also on the Board of Samaritan’s Purse. He spent a large portion of "vacation time" operating in hospitals in third world countries as a witness to his patients about the Lord. Not only was he active in ministry but also in his profession, serving as president of the North Carolina Chapter of the American College of Surgeons, President of the North Carolina Surgical Association and a two term Governor for the state of North Carolina to the American College of Surgeons. He was president of Watauga Surgical Group for thirty four years, Chief of Medical Staff of Watauga Medical Center on three occasions, and Chief of Surgery of Watauga Medical Center for many years. He utilized each of these positions as an opportunity to let others see evidence of what Jesus Christ meant in his everyday life. Even with leadership involvement in so many activities, he also found time for even more fun activities in life. He rafted the Colorado River through the Grand Canyon twice, as well as rafting smaller western rivers numerous times. He was an avid golfer, tennis player and racquet ball player. And if you asked him, one of his most cherished positions he enjoyed was his time as a team physician for the Appalachian State University football team since 1963. Most any Saturday, you could see him standing on the sidelines, cheering the team on, checking injuries, and even at times, trying to give the coach a play or two. Dr. Furman was educated at Harriman High School in Harriman, Tenn. He received his undergraduate degree from the University of Tennessee, and his doctorate degree from the University of Tennessee Medical School. Dr. Furman was a flight surgeon in the U.S. Navy. Lowell Furman, born Feb. 21, 1932, died December 8, 2006; will be missed, but fondly remembered as a man who loved his surgical practice, loved life, and most of all; loved the Lord. Today, Lowell is satisfied. “And I – in righteousness I will see your face; when I awake, I will be satisfied with seeing your likeness.” Psalm 17:15 Dr. Furman is survived by his wife, Faythe R. Furman; three sons, Lowell B. Furman, Jr. and wife, Beth, of Bloomington, Ind., Robby Houck and wife, Michelle, of Charleston, S.C., and Chris Houck and wife, Angie, of Asheville; three daughters, Susan F.

TAPS ARE SOUNDED FOR FREDETTE TODAY Death Came Tuesday Night After Four Hopeless Weeks With Broken Neck, He Was Conscious Almost To The Last

After having lived just a month with a broken neck, Richard Ernest Fredette of Middlebury, a member of Company I. V. N. G., died at the Post hospital at Fort Ethan Allen at 10 o’clock Tuesday night, reiterating almost to the last that his greatest grief was that he could not follow his comrades to the battlefield. In a flag draped coffin in which his body was removed from Burlington to Middlebury on Wednesday evening, he is being buried here today, with funeral services at his home conducted by President Thomas of Middlebury College. A bugler, Musician Nugar of Fort Ethan Allen, was detailed here to sound taps over the grave. The bearers were: Benjamin Cota, Milton Brown, Denzil Glavin, Thomas Bushway, Thomas Burns and Frank Goss. Up to within a short time of his death Fredette, although practically all of his body was paralyzed, was conscious and talked with his mother, Mrs. John Fredette, who had been at his bedside most of the time. He had talked a great deal of his comrades and when the regiment was broken up with the departure of a large portion of it for Massachusetts, he, realizing he would never be able to accompany it was greatly affected. His case was practically hopeless from the time he entered the hospital with injuries sustained when he dived into shallow water while swimming in Lake Champlain on August 5. At the hospital when it was determined that his neck was broken a delicate operation performed for the removal of part of the vertebra, but the surgeons realized that at best this would only give him a few weeks of life. The paralysis gradually spread and on Sunday he practically lost consciousness. Fredette, who was the son of Mr. and Mrs. John Fredette, would have reached his 20th birthday the 17th of next month. He enlisted in Company I, of Brattleboro just prior to the departure of the First Vermont for Mexican border service, his brother, Warren Fredette of Brattleboro, being at that time a sergeant in that Company, and since discharged.

Funeral services and burial took place at 4 p.m. Sunday, January 27th at the Moore School House Cemetery on Green's Creek, Rev. J.L. Gilbreath conducting the last sad service. "Uncle Jimmie" as he has been well known in this section for many years, has been a prominent figure in the growth of Dublin and Erath County and for a considerable time and until his retirement from active business life he was identified with the business interests of Dublin as vice-president of the Dublin National Bank. His long career has been an eventful one through all of which he came as only one may come who is strong of heart, heroic in the face of danger, patriotic when his country calls and faithful in every walk of life. Mr. Reid was a native of South Carolina and in 1873 removed to Georgia. He came to Texas in 1878, locating on Green's Creek near Dublin on the farm now owned by L.R. Mayfield. He improved this place and after several years residence sold it and removed to Dublin and since has resided here.

At the opening of the civil war he enlisted in a South Carolina regiment and spent five years under the Confederate flag mainly in the Shenandoah Valley, participating in the battle of Vicksburg and other noted struggles of the civil war. From his experience in two wars, however, he came out unscathed, having never been wounded and enjoyed good health until his advancing years began to tell of the tread of time in his career and the sickness which caused his demise over a period of about four months. Mr. Reid was twice married and survived each of his helpmeets. From the first the following children were born to him: W.T. Reid and John H. Reid who both reside at Dublin, S.C. Reid who died at Rucker last year: James II Reid of Raas in Van Zandt county and Mrs. Sallie Sutherland of Pickens county, South Carolina. From the second were born Geo. W. and R. D. Reid now of Hasse, W.Y. Reid of Dublin, D. Forester of Lingleville and Mrs. Lillie May Ware of Wilson.

JEROME WOODRUFF FINNIGAN, Lucy Ariail Family line Jerome 'Jerry' W. Finnigan Jerome "Jerry Woodruff Finnigan, 86, of Richland, died Dec. 6 at Wynwood of Columbia Edgewater in Richland. He was born in Oak Park, Ill., and lived in the Tri-Cities since 1950. He was a retired dean of what would become Washington State University Tri-Cities. Einan's Funeral Home, Richland, is in charge of arrangements.

Jerome (Jerry) W. Finnigan passed away at age 86 on December 6, 2010. He was born February 9, 1924 to Ralph and Camilla Finnigan in Oak Park, Illinois. He served in the Navy during WWII and, after his discharge in 1946, began studying chemical engineering at Northwestern University. During that time he married his wife, Nancy, his spouse for 61 years. After graduating from Northwestern, Jerry and Nancy moved to the Tri-Cities where Jerry was employed at Hanford. His education in chemical engineering continued with a Master’s degree from the University of Idaho, a Ph. D from Oregon State University and a career long association with several professional societies: The American Institute of Chemical Engineers, The American Ordnance Association and the American Nuclear Society. He was employed in management positions with General Electric and Battelle before becoming Dean of the Joint Center for Graduate Studies in Richland in 1981 where he served through its transition to the Tri-Cities University Center. In 1989 when TCU became the Tri-Cities campus of Washington State University he retired, taking great satisfaction in the opportunities he had helped create for local students to obtain advanced degrees without leaving the Tri-Cities. Jerry was always active in community service. He served for many years on the United Way Board of Directors, serving as Board Chairman in 1984 and was named United Way’s Distinguished Volunteer of the Year in 1985. He was a leader in establishing the Benton-Franklin chapter of the American Heart Association and served a term as President of the Board of Directors. He also provided many years of service on the Board of Directors of the Volunteer Center and on the Citizen’s Advisory Board of The Salvation Army. He played a pivotal role in bringing public radio (Fine Arts Radio) and public television (KCTS Channel 9) to the Tri-Cities community. Jerry was named Manager of the Year by the local chapter of AMA and was an active member of The Friends of the Richland Public Library. He also served on the Governor’s Nuclear Waste Advisory Council and was an early member of the Board of Directors of Stirling Technology Company and the Tri-Cities Enterprise Association. His commitment to helping one community and one child at a time was especially evident when he became a charter member of the Kiwanis Club of Tri-Cities Industry, serving as that club’s President in 1990-91. Among many Kiwanis club projects two were particular favorites: The Salvation Army Christmas bell ringing campaigns and a program to collect and distribute old spectacles to those unable to afford the eyesight correction they so desperately need. For his dedicated service to the Kiwanis he received the George F. Hixson Fellowship Award and the Kiwanis Legion of Honor medal. Since childhood, one of Jerry’s favorite hobbies was the study and performance of magic. He especially enjoyed working with members of his family and with friends, performing magic shows throughout the community. He also encouraged and mentored a number of young people to develop an interest in magic as a hobby. Many Tri-Citians will remember learning from Jerry how to do rope tricks and the jumping rubber bands. Elementary school principals, clergymen and Blue Angel pilots alike were beheaded in his guillotine and lived to tell the tale. Preceded in death by his parents and his brother Jim, he is survived by his wife, Nancy, their four children, Skip, Patty, Carol, Janet and his son-in-law Matt Sollender. A memorial service will be held at Einan’s Funeral Home on Tuesday, December 21st at 11:00 a.m. Memorial donations may be made to The Salvation Army or charity of your choice. Jerry was a wonderful husband, father, friend and mentor to many people. He was one in a million and our hearts are broken with his passing. We love you, Dad.

He was enrolled in Indiana University at Bloomington, Indiana, while still attending high school. During World War II, he was in the U.S. Navy hospital corps for 2-1/2 years. Following military service, he completed pre-medical studies and entered Indiana University School of Medicine. At this time, he changed his name to Don Coffin Purnell. Upon receiving his M.D. degree, he interned at the University Hospital in Indianapolis, Indiana. From 1952 until 1955, he was a fellow in internal medicine at Mayo Clinic, and completed the degree of Master of Science. He was appointed an assistant to the staff in 1955, and a consultant in the Section of Endocrinology in 1956. He was successively instructor, assistant professor, associate professor, and professor of medicine in the Mayo Medical School. He was Vice Chair of the Division of Endocrinology for seven years. He retired on May 5, 1998 after 46 years of dedicated service. He was known for his wry sense of humor and quick wit. His primary field of interest was in calcium metabolism and disorders of parathyroid gland function. He was an acknowledged authority in these areas, and had numerous publications on clinical research and clinical management of hyperparathyroidism. His fluency in the Spanish language made opportunities available to travel the Spanish-speaking world to participate in medical conferences and to make a wide circle of friends in Mexico, Spain, and South America. He was a member of Phi Eta Sigma, Nu Sigma Nu, Kappa Sigma, and Alpha Omega Alpha honor medical society. Memberships in medical societies included American Medical Association, American Diabetes Association, Endocrine Society, American College of Physicians, and the Mayo Alumni Association. He was married to the former Janet Ilene Long in 1950, and they were later divorced. He was married in 1992 to Ramona J. Smith.

Purnell (Gretchen) of Keller, Texas; a step-daughter Dr. Emily J. Smith Nguyen (Hoa) of Eau Claire, WI; a step-daughter Erin J. McSparron (Joshua) of Grand Forks, ND; eight grandchildren – Mike, Sarah, Alison, Emily, Logan, Hannah, Hillary, Isaiah, one great-grandchild – Gavin. There are two grandchildren and one great-grandchild due in 2010. He was preceded in death by his parents Donald Wilshire Coffin and Helen Purnell Coffin. Don was very proud of his Quaker background. The Coffin House in Annapolis was part of the underground railroad movement. Slaves were ushered up the secret stairs in the old house. Don's grandfather showed him this secret hiding place. The Coffin family gave the slaves food and water, and guided them to a free life. It was a well known fact that Quakers said the people "ain't for sale." Don was a member of Mount Olive Lutheran Church, and was humbled and grateful that Mount Olive accepted an "Old Quaker" into their fellowship. He cherished his friendships with the Koinonia Family at Mount Olive. Dr. Purnell always said that flowers weren't practical because you couldn't eat them. Thus, in lieu of flowers, memorials are suggested for the Salvation Army to use at their discretion or to Mount Olive Lutheran Church.
