    Obituary:
    Theophile Hollier

    The death of Mr. Theophile Hollier, which occurred at the residence of his daughter, Mrs. Chas. Russell, in Lafayette, on Saturday, June 2, 1906, at 9:30 p. m., was received at his home, Opelousas, with most profound regrets, and the large concourse of friends which formed the funeral cortege when the body reached here Sunday mutely but strongly attested the esteem in which he was held by the people of this community.

    Mr. Hollier had been ill for some months, suffering with chronic constitutional troubles, but he had rallied and when taken seriously ill was on his way to Texas, and had stopped to see his daughter in Lafayette. There he was stricken and did not recover.

    His wife preceded him to the grave only a few months ago, and both of them were, it was thought at the time, fatally stricken at the same time. Now that they have reached that coast, over life’s rough ocean driven, may they rejoice, no wanderer lost, a family in Heaven.

    Mr. Hollier was 57 years of age. He was a member of the Ancient Order of United Workmen and of the Woodmen of the World, and members of both orders met the body at the train and accompanied it to the grave.

    Buried:
    Theophile's 1908 year of death on his headstone is incorrect since his date of death is noted as 2 Jun 1906 in his obituary in the St. Landry Clarion and his date of burial is noted as 3 June 1906 in Fr. Hebert's reference.

    Died:
    Death of Mrs. Theo. Hollier.
    Mrs. Theophile Hollier, nee Victoire Gonor, died at the family residence, in Opelousas, on Tuesday evening, February 27, 1906, aged 51 years.Death had been hovering o'er this peaceful home for some days, seeming to halter in his determination as to whom to clasp to his clamy bosom and fly away to the Land of Sleep; or whether he should rob the home of one, two or three of its inmates. For several weeks he has done this, for a time with father, mother and son in bed at one time, with the same malady - pneumonia. Then the son got up, and the race for the grave was between the father and mother. Tuesday death came to the mother, while yet the father was faltering on the brink. The tolling of the bell told him that mother was no more.

    "Bell! thou soundest merrily,
    When the bridal party
    To the church doth hie!
    Bell! thou soundest mournfully;
    Tellest thou the bitter
    Parting hath gone by!"

    The Clarion extends its heartfelt condolences to the bereaved family.Mr. Hollier, we are glad to say, is better, and prospect for his recovery are cheerfully entertained.
