Sixteen park officials and rangers were In attendance at the services as active and honorary pallbearers.

Next to his family, Crater Lake claimed his greatest devotion and caused his greatest sacrifices to make this scenic spot available to the peo ple. When other years found him more blessed with health, no summer passed by without seeing him in the region of the lake of blue mysteries which he first beheld as a, young man in 1665, beginning his ceaseless efforts' in its behalf.
