BUFFALO MAN KILLED IN CRASH ON HIGHWAY 62
Junior E. White, 23, of near Buffalo was killed about 3:30AM Tuesday morning when his car crashed into a bridge abutment and overturned in a ditch on highway 62 about one half mile southwest of Mt. Home.
State Trooper Bill Manes said the car was found lying on its top and that White was pinned into it in such a manner that it required the use of a wrecker to open the door so the body could be moved.
Dr. Walter S. Guinee, county coroner, who investigated the accident with Manes said the man apparently died about an hour before the accident was discovered.
A Memorial Funeral H--ome ambulance answered the call to the accident scene.
White, a Navy veteran, was born on March 11, 1936. He was the son of Mr. and Mrs. E.C. White of route 2, Mt. Home.
Funeral services will be held at 2PM today in the Fairview Methodist Church at Buford, with Rev. Gerald Martin officiating.
Interment will be in the Fairview Cemetery, with Roller Funeral Home in charge.
Joe Misie, Ed Covington, Bus Fletcher, J.D. Gray, Ralph Eubank and George White will serve as pallbearers.
Besides his parents, he is survived by three brothers, J.E, Kenneth and Jimmie, and eight sisters, Burnise, Berneice, Imogene, Nelta, Phyllis, Martha, Lorene and Alice.
