Witness-Obituary |
Warwick, Orange County, New York [4] |
- William Oscar Mabee, the son of the late John Mabee of Warwick, died at his home in New York city, last Thursday night, July 7, aged 53 years.
For a year and a half Mr Mabee has been seriously ill with heart disease and other complications which made it necessary for him to practically abandon active business he maintained his naturally cheerful spirit, however, and on the day he died had felt better than usual. Shortly after retiring for the night, Mrs Mabee awoke to find that her husband had expired without the slightest warning.
Mr Mabee was born in Warwick and resided here until about 25 years ago. His first business venture was the establishment of a grocery store on Railroad avenue, which he afterward sold to R F Vail, and went into business in New York city. Subsequesnly he conducted a gents' furnishing goods store in Newburgh and was appointed by William R Brown as Inspector of Clothing at Sing Sing Prison, a position which he filled with credit to himself and with great satisfaction to the State.
Mr Mabee was afterward connected with the North American Mercantile Agency as soliciting agent for New York city, continuing in this capacity until the time of his death.
While residing in Newburg Mr Mabee married Miss Lillie Belknap, daughter of Mrs John L Belknap, who with three children, survive him. The deceased is also survived by one brother, James D of the Dispatch office, and five sisters – Katurah and Mary of Warwick; Mrs Hester A McCornal of Newburgh; Mrs Magdalene B Simpson of Newton N. J., and Mrs Alice Montross of Warwick.
"Will" as he was familiarly called in town, was a model man in many respects. For modest politeness, kindness, good cheer, strict integrity and unostentatious Christian character it is rare to find his equal. He made friends everywhere and was universally respected and trusted.
Services were conducted at his late residence in New York city on Saturday evening and the remains were brought to Warwick on Sunday, the funeral being held at the M. E. Church in the afternoon by the Rev E H Carr, and were largely attended. Interment in Warwick Cemetery.
