Hoovler, June T., formerly of 105 Laurel Drive, a lifelong resident of Franklin, died at 5:30 a.m. Sunday, June 8, 2008, at Pristine Pines in Wexford. Mrs. Hoovler had been living there since January and died after a brief illness. She had just celebrated her 90th birthday. Born May 12, 1918, she was the daughter of Donald and Verda Hazlett Titus. She graduated from Franklin High School in 1937, and was the senior class treasurer. For the next 10 years she worked at the courthouse eventually rising to be deputy treasurer of Venango County. Her efficiency and organizational skills in all things mathematical served her well in later years when she, with her husband, Robert Hoovler, owned and operated Feldman Jewelers for 21 years. It was Mrs.Hoovler who kept the ship running smoothly from behind her desk as she balanced the books. Both retired from their business in 1986. June and Bob were married on Sept. 16, 1941, in the First Evangelical United Brethren Church on Buffalo Street in Franklin, now Christ United Methodist. They celebrated their 61st anniversary before his death in November 2002. Both were active in their church from a young age. June's contributions to her church were far-reaching. She was responsible for the making more than 80 robes for the church's youth choirs and was their accompanist. She became church organist, playing for services, weddings and funerals and in doing so touched many lives. In 2004 she was honored by her church, becoming its first organist emeritus after playing for years. She also served on many boards and commitees and was the treasurer for the Christ Ambassador Sunday school class. While Bob served in World War II, June joined other war wives in forming a sewing club. Starting in 1944, the friends met monthly for years and the group still survives today. Her children remember well how diligent she was in making everything perfect before the ladies would come to her home. Because June loved new challenges, she was self-taught in many areas. She sewed, crocheted, painted, and was a computer whiz before it was popular. Golf also became an obsession as she hit them short but straight even into her 80s. She learned how to groom her Scotties, her own children and any neighbor kids she could 'catch'. Her home with five children was also a challenge but again she organized, directed and managed even into the wee hours of the morning. She applied the same kind of diligence in all aspects of her life whether it was stripping every bannister and piece of woodwork in her house at 516 11th St. or organizing her and Bob's FHS class reunions. In recent years June survived breast cancer at 86 and knee replacement at 88. She faced these setbacks and recovered through her faith and hard work. June is survived by her five children, R. Park Hoovler and wife, Judy, of Falls Church, Va., Marcia Hannan and husband, Bill, of Wexford, Rita Hale and husband, Mark, of Franklin, Earl Hoovler and wife, Jo-Ann, of Leesburg, Va. and Keith Hoovler and wife, Kathy, of Maplewood, N.J.; eight grandchildren, Megan Hale of Baltimore, Md., Andrew Hale of New York City, Ny., Grace Hannan and Julia Hannan, both of Wexford, Robyn Hoovler and Emily Hoovler, both of Leesburg, Va., and Keri Hoovler and Jacob Hoovler, both of Maplewood, N.J. Also surviving is a half-sister, Barbara Beachy of Filton, Del. In addition to her parents and husband, June was preceded in death by her brother, Robert Titus; and a granddaughter, Jenna Hoovler.

Hull, Bradford. At the home of his daughter, Mrs. J. E. Davis, near Coldwater, Kansas, on Saturday, March 12, 1904, Bradford Hull, aged 83 years, 5 months and 1 day. At 4 o'clock a.m. on last Saturday, after lapsing into unconciousness for about 24 hours, Bradford Hull, father of Spencer Hull, of this city, and of Mrs. J. E. Davis, northeast of town, died without any apparent struggle or pain. He had been an invalid from paralysis for eight years and was incapable during that time, of walking. On the Sunday before his death he began to fail in strength, and gradually his remaining vitality gave way. The funeral services were held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. J. E. Davis at 10:30 a.m. on Sunday, Rev. I. W. Bailey, of the Baptist church, preaching an appropriate sermon. Rev. J. B. Handy, of the M. E. church, assisted in the services. Burial took place in the Coldwater cemetery. The deceased was born in Chester co., Pennsylvania, October 11, 1820. At the age of 7 he moved with his parents to Morrow co., Ohio, where he lived for nearly 67 years. On October 5, 1843, he was united in marriage to Miss Nancy Titus. Nine children were born to the union, 6 of whom are living. The son, Spencer Hull, and a daughter, Mrs. Davis, were the only children present at the funeral exercises. There are few more patient, more unassuming and withal, more honorable men or more conscientious and upright citizens than was Bradford Hull. He bore his affliction without a murmur and with remarkable patience. For the past 15 years he had made his home most of the time with Mr. and Mrs. Spencer Hull. A part of the time was county for 7 years. Before coming to Kansas he spent a couple of years in Chicago. It was during his stay spent at the home of Mr. and Mrs. J. E. Davis. Mr. Hull had lived in that city that he was stricken with paralysis. For nearly all his life he had been a member of the Baptist church and had lived a consistent and exemplary Christian life. In his death the relatives and friends deeply mourn the loss of a kind father and good man, and especially will those who for so many years, so lovingly administered to his every need, feel the pang of his absence.

Moe enjoyed the friendship of many of the founding fathers of the area and organized a volleyball team that included Marshall Benjamin, Robert Abernathy, Ken May and many other professionals from the Village. He was a daredevil, and enjoyed flying with his friend, John Lilbeurg in his various acrobatic aircraft. The camaraderie of this group of men, including "the old eagles" and memories of this time remained dear to him to his death. He also enjoyed scuba diving, falconry, fishing, boating, gourmet cooking and was a world traveler after retirement. He was a devoted family man and a loyal and generous neighbor and friend to many. In his later years, his greatest joy was to spend Wednesday evenings at Harry and the Natives, listening to his son's band, "Bonefide", while relaxing with family and friends.
