- [S927] Obituary.
From The Zanesville Times Recorder, pg 12, 25 May 1948:
Mrs. Leo J. Haren, a medical patient at Good Samaritan Hospital for the
past three weeks, has been removed to her home at 51 Southard Avenue.
A news report of the accident which took Delores Burkhard Haren?s life was the headline article on the front page of the Zanesville Sunday Times Recorder on 13 Apr 1962:
WOMAN SHOPPER KILLED BY AUTO
Collision With Truck Sends Car Spinning Into Grocery Store
Mrs. Leo Haren, 63, of 2033 Myrtle avenue, was killed and her husband
was seriously hurt Saturday morning when an automobile which had collided
with a pickup trick ploughed into them as they stood on the sidewalk and
smashed them through the front of the Campbell Supermarket on Mays-
ville pike at South Zanesville.
Three others, in the two vehicles, were injured, some seriously, according
to Sheriff Fred Ullmer.
The Harens, headed for the store to shop, were attracted by the traffic crash
at the intersection of Maysville pike and South Zanesville?s Main street, virtually
in front of the store.
The sheriff?s report said the car and truck crashed twice before the automobile
veered to the sidewalk, struck the Harens and continued through the front section
of the market. The collision occurred at 10 a.m.
Both Mrs. Haren and her 67-year-old husband were pinned beneath the auto-
mobile which came to a stop after ramming a mass of produce, fruits and bottled
soft drinks.
Mrs. Haren was pronounced dead on arrival at Bethesda Hospital. Her death
was attributed to head injuries.
Her husband, a retired Railway Express Co. employe, sustained a fractured
right leg, smashed left hand and cuts on his head. He is being treated at Good
Samaritan hospital.
The driver of the death car was George Appleman, 74, of 514 Seborn avenue,
whose wife, Mary was a passenger. Both were treated for shock and minor cuts
at Bethesda Hospital and later dismissed.
William Morris, 66, of Lancaster, the trucker, is being treated at Bethesda for
back and neck injuries.
Sheriff Ullmer said that the Appleman car, leaving the market?s parking area
on the west side of Maysville pike, collided with the truck which was headed south,
resulting in the fatal accident.
He added that the investigation was being continued and that responsibility for
the crash had not been determined because of conflicting statements from wit-
nesses concerning operation of the traffic light at the intersection.
Paul Campbell, owner of the market, was unable immediately to estimate the
damage to the building and the merchandise.
Mrs. Haren was taken to the hospital in a DeLong-Baker ambulance and her
husband was removed to Good Samaritan by the South Zanesville Emergency
Squad. Morris was removed to Bethesda in a Bolin-Bryan ambulance and a
passerby took the Applemans to Bethesda for examination.
Mrs. Haren?s body was removed to the Hillis Funeral home.
Mrs. Haren was born April 3, 1899, in Monroe County, the daughter of Theobald
and Caroline Singer Burkhard, but had lived in Zanesville for 40 years.
She was a member of St. Nicholas Catholic church and the Ladies Auxiliary of
the Knights of St. John, the Altar-Rosary Society and Good Samaritan Hospital
Charity Circle.
Surviving are her husband, a daughter, Mrs. Roland Bassford of 920 Locust
avenue; two sons, Leo Jr. of 527 Putnam avenue and Dave of 2439 Moorewood
drive; three brothers, Julius Burkhard of 1133 Seborn avenue, William Burkhard
of 2015 Neil avenue and Raymond Burkhard of Canton; seven sisters, Mrs. G. N.
Baker of 545 Glendale avenue, Mrs. Ernest Pfeffer of Quaker City, Mrs. Carl Him-
melspach of Barnesville, Mrs. Andrew Danner of Canton, Mrs. N. J. Malone of
1036 Eastman street, Mrs. H. G. Fenton of San Diego, Calif., and Miss Evalena
Burkahrd of 920 Locust avenue and six grandchildren.
Friends may call at the funeral home after 1 p.m. Monday.
