LEW ROCHFORD DEAD.
John Lewis ROCHFORD died in the sanitarium at Glenwood last Thursday, May 18, after a few days illness.
The deceased was a pioneer of Colorado and Eagle county. He was born in Frazer Falls, New York, July 23, 1864, and came to Colorado when 18 years old, and had since been a citizen of the Centennial State. He came to Eagle county in 1892 and, with the exception of short absence, had been a resident of the Wolcott neighborhood since that time. His wife passed away many years ago, and he is survived by an only son, Elmer, who lives at Wolcott.
Lew ROCHFORD was a good citizen, and will be missed by his neighbors all of whom held him in the highest respect.
The funeral was held at Wolcott Sunday, and the remains laid to their last rest in the Edwards cemetery.
