OBITUARY

Dr. W.P.V. Evers - 45 Years A Doctor In Fulton County

Wauseon, Ohio February 11. Dr. W.P.V. Evers, 74, a practicing physician and surgeon in Fulton County for 45 years, died
yesterday in Detwiler Hospital. Dr. Evers was born in Mayfield, KY. He received his medical degree from Vanderbilt University
in 1910 and served his internship in National Jewish Hospital, Denver, Colorado. He opened his first office in Rosiclair, a
mining town on the Ohio River in southern Illinois. He was the only doctor in the town. There was no hospital. Periodic floods
of the river added to the pressure of work of the physician.

MOVES TO TEDROW
In response to an advertisement in a medical journal in 1916, Dr. Evers learned there was an opening for a physician in the Tedrow community in Fulton County. He moved his family to Tedrow that year and his practice in the county was interrupted only by service in WW I. He served in
France as a First Lieutenant in the Medical Corps of the army and was wounded and gassed. On his recovery he was assigned to duty in a hospital in Germany. Dr. Evers was discharged in April 1919, and two years later moved his office from Tedrow to Wauseon. He continued his practice until last Christmas.

ACTIVE IN CIVIC AFFAIRS
He was active in civic affairs here and served eight years on the board of education. He was a charter member of the Exchange Club and Robinson-Gibbs American Legion Post. He was also a member of Sigma Chi fraternity, the Chamber of Commerce and the Masonic and Elks lodges. On several occasions, he served as Chief of Staff of Detwiler Hospital. On May 10, 1960, the Ohio Medical Association awarded Dr. Evers a pin marking 50 years in the medical profession. Dr. Evers is survived by his wife, Lurline; son, James T., Neptune, N.J.; a daughter, Mrs Laura kull, Wauseon; sister, Mrs. Verna S. Burradell, Tulsa, Oklahoma. Services will be at 2 p.m. Monday in the Penrod Mortuary. Burial will be in Wauseon Cemetery. The body will be in the mortuary after 1 p.m. today. Masonic services will be conducted at the mortuary at 8:30 p.m. Sunday and military rites will be conducted at the grave by the American Legion.
