Description : During recent months friends of Mr. James R. Webb had been concerned about his health, realizing by his appearance that he could not be well, but being a man who had never been concerned about himself, he kept on going to business. Eight weeks before his death he sought medical advice and was immediately taken to hospital, his case being diagnosed as dreadful leukemia. From the first it was stated that his illness would be short. He passed away on Sunday, March 18, in his 58th year.James R. Webb was one of Bradford's best known business men. He was born in Bradford, a son of the late Mr. and Mrs. James A. Webb, and was educated in Bradford schools. Early in life he joined his father in the butcher store, in a store where father and son's knowledge and care of meats made the name of Webb's meats a trade name with select patronage over a thirty or more year period, not only in the Bradford district, but for that big summer trade passing through to northern holiday resorts.James R. Webb had served on Bradford Council. He was the first president of Bradford Rotary Club. Like his father, he loved lacrosse and was a member of Bradford's Tri-County championship team in 1932. In recent years his interest was curling and he had been active in the local curling club.His church was Trinity Anglican, Bradford, the church which he attended since childhood.James R. Webb married Muriel Houghton of Bradford on September 12, 1932. He is survived by his wife, one daughter, Roberta (Mrs. Don Whitmore) of Newmarket, and two sons, Jamie and Richard, at home. Also surviving are three sisters and two brothers, Miss Birdie Webb of Bradford; Mrs. Louis Walker (Gussie) of Lindsay; George of Mimico; Ben of Toronto and Mrs. H. Hillary (Mary) of Gormley.Much sympathy is felt throughout the district for Mrs. Webb and the family in their bereavement, and in the business section of the town his passing is keenly felt. The departure of the head of a long-established business is sadly missed.The funeral was held on Wednesday, March 21, from Trinity Anglican Church, with Rev. E. R. Woolley conducting the services. Interment was in Mount Pleasant Cemetery.The pallbearers were Brad. Walker, Norman Porter, Norman Collings, Keith Kilkenny, T. H. Gardner and Brock Evans.

Description : Death came with startling suddenness to Mrs. Howard Robson on Tuesday morning of last week. Mrs. Robson had been about her home, doing the customary household tasks, and had been out to the garage to speak to her husband, apparently feeling as usual. A few minutes later she came to the door and called to him to come quickly and told him she felt very strange. He got her to lie down, and because she was cold, went for a heating pad but she passed away before anything could be done.Mrs. Robson, whose maiden name was Evelyn Reevie, was born in Oro Township and spent her early life there.Mr. and Mrs. Robson came to Bradford in 1931 and have resided here continuously since that time. A quiet lady, Mrs. Robson devoted her time to her home and her family.She was a member of Bradford Presbyterian Church.Mrs. Robson is survived by her husband, Howard; three sons and two daughters, namely, J. Alvin, of Tonawanda, N.Y.; Garnet of Aurora; Mrs. Henry Bell (Phyllis) of Bradford; Mrs. Robt. Veale (Shirley) of Scarborough; and Budd of Bradford. There are also eight grandchildren.Mrs. Robson's death is a very personal loss to her family to whom she was a most devoted and kindly mother, and among whom her absence will be felt very keenly.The funeral was held on Thursday from the Lathangue-Kilkenny Funeral Home, with interment in Mount Pleasant Cemetery. Mr. L. B. Williams had charge of the service.The pallbearers were six nephews, namely, Austin Kendall, Jack Kendall, Leigh Reevie, Brian Reevie, all of Shanty Bay, Jack Laikin of Toronto and John Reevie of Barrie.
