Eckerman
Succumbs
at
Midnight
Saturday
to
Sudden
Heart
Attack
Resident
of
Prince
Rupert
for
38
years,
identified
with
the
re-
tall
grocery
department
of
Ed
ward
Lipsett
Ltd.,
George
Eckerman
passed
away
suddenly
at
his
home,
320
Second
Avenue,
suc-cumlbing
to
a
heart
attach.
He
had
complained
for
about
a
week
of
what
he
believed
was
a
cold
but
none
realized
that
the
end
was
so
near.
His
passing
came
as
a
great
shock
to
many
friends
by
whem
he
was
so
highly
esteemed.
Born
in
Alabany,
Georgia,
In
October
1879,
Mr.
Eckerman
had
lived
practically
all
his
life
in
the
Pacific
Northwest.
After
spending,
some
time
in
Portland,
Salem,
Pendleton
and
Tacoma,
Mr.
Eckerman
came
here
from
the
last-mentioned
city
In
1909
and,
with
the
exception
of
Uiree
brief
periods
of
less
than
a
year
In
,
the
United
States,
he
has
resided
here
continuously
since.
Real
old
timers
will
remember
him
with
the
old
Lynch
Bros
store
at
the
junction
of
First,
Second
and
Third
Avenues.
He
had
been
with
other
retail
stores
In
the
city
before
joining
Lip-sjtt's.
Of
quiet
and
unassuming
yet
genial
disposition,
he
had
many
triends
who
will
greatly
regret
his
passing.
He
was
a
j
member
rt
Tsimpsean
Lodge
A.
F.
&
A.
M.
and
a
Shriner.
In
addition
to
his
widow,
