TABOR BEACON- July 28, 1952

CLAUDE BUSTER DIES SUDDENLY

Claude BUSTER of Tarkio who had been ill about two weeks from an affection of the heart, expired suddenly last Sunday, while sitting in a chair in his home.
Mr. Buster was a Missourian, born in Platte county, near Platte City, and was aged 71 years, 5 months and 12 days. He had lived in Atchison county fifty years, and thirty years in Tarkio.
In 1872 he was united in marriage with Nancy Ann Pickering and to them were born four daughters and one son. Mrs. Buster, three of the daughters, and the son survive.
The funeral occurred at the home on Thursday, Rev. A.P. DeLong preaching the sermon and conduction the services.
Mr. Buster was socially inclined and had many friends who will miss him, but in his home there is a vacancy that cannot be filled and 'tis there that his cheerfulness will be most missed.
