Re: Oakside Cemetery - Need Directions

Hi Margie,

I'm not related to this family, but my grandparents did know Curtis and Della. My grandfather was pretty good friends with Curtis. My grandparents moved to Lakeland in 1977, but kept in contact with Curtis and his 3rd wife for many years. I remeber meeting him when I was a kid. He use to hand feed squirles in his backyard.

My grandmother and I stopped and visited with Curtis's 3rd wife a couple of years ago. I can't remember her name.

Curtis died 12 Sep 2002, the same year my grandfather died, and was buried next to Della in Brandon, FL. Della died 1 Jul 1980. I don't know when his second wife died.

Grandma said they were buried in Brandon becuase one of their sons was buried there. Grandma couldn't remember why the son was buried in Brandon, which is a pretty good travel from Zephyhills.

I have copies of the obituaries and would be more than happy to send you copies. Please send your mailing address to my e-mail address, welchmail@msn.com

The obituary for Curtis mentions children and siblings living in Zephyhills. I'm sure phone numbers wouldn't be hard to obtain from information, or some online telephone directories.

I'm looking forward to your e-mail.

Sincerely,

Chris E. Welch
Gainesville, FL
