The Tumut and Adelong Times 5 Sep 1939
OBITUARY MR. GEORGE OSWALD BLOMLEY The sudden death of Mr. George O. Blomley, mine host of the Union Hotel, Tumbarumba, on Saturday night spread quite a pall over the alpine town, for the community was not aware that he was in ill-health, and his body was not discovered until half-an-hour after death. At about 11 o'clock he was seized with pains in the chest and went upstairs to get some powders to give relief. Albout half-an-hour afterwards his wife missed him and when they went looking for him he was found on the floor, having evidently fallen forward on his face. Previously he had not complained of being unwell. Heart seizure was the cause of death. Deceased was a most amiable and com panionable man, a born, boniface and was popular with all classes. He was an Oddfellow and a Buffalo, and at the burial brethren of those orders read their separate services after Rev. H. J. Velvin, Batlow, had read the C. of E. rites. Mr. Velvin also conducted a short service at the church where the casketed remains were taken on Sunday morning. The local Light Horse formed a guard of honor at the cemetery. A sorrowing wife and one daughter, Doris (now Mrs. Wallace Heinecke), mourn their irreparable loss. Two sons, Thomas (killed at the Great War) and Ivo (dead seven years from war disabil ities) predeceased him. The latter's wife has since lived with her father and mother-in-law, assisting in the management of the hotel. One bro ther, William of Tumbarumba, aged 84, is also living at Tumbarumba. De ceased spent the boyhood part of his life in Tumut. |
