Payette Enterprise
Thursday, September 18, 1930
Guy Howard well known former resident of Payette died at the home of his sister, Mrs. B. R. Fitch, Monday evening after an illness of several weeks suffering with heart trouble and other compilations. He came to Payette two weeks ago from Portland, where he has lived for the past five years and for the past four weeks had been receiving medical attention at a Portland hospital. His illness and death was a shock to his many Payette friends who knew him, as he was a man of unusual physical strength and seldom saw an ill moment. He was one of those robust men, kind hearted, almost to a fault and made friends wherever he went. He was born at North Bend, Neb., May 29th, 1888 and came to Idaho in 1908 and for many years lived in Payette going to Portland in 1925. He was married to Esther Banks, July 18, 1927. Besides his wife he is survived by a stepdaughter, Jane Banks, whom he loved as his own, one sister Mrs. B. R. Fitch, a niece and nephew, Kathern Cabe and Neil Fitch all of Payette. Funeral services were held from the Baptist church Wednesday afternoon at 2 o'clock, conducted by Rev. L. G. Fraser, pastor. Interment was made in Riverside cemetery.
