Meade, Kan. Couple Fatally Injured in Highway Accident
</centerHutchinson, Kan. — Slippery, hazardous highway conditions in the Dodge City area were blamed for a crash on US-54 west of Kingsdown Dec. 30 that claimed the lives of a Meade couple.
Aaron Unruh, 67, and his wife Lorraine, 61, were killed when their car was involved in a collision with an oncoming auto occupied by a Lenexa family. Both were dead on arrival at the Bucklin hospital. The Lenexa couple and their daughter are recovering.
The Unruhs were members of the E.M.B. church at Meade, where double funeral services were conducted Friday forenoon, Jan. 3. Rev. John Jackson officiated.
Mrs. Unruh, the former Lorraine Schmidt, married Aaron Unruh at Carnegie, Okla. in 1937. He was born at Pawnee Rock, and farmed in the Meade community most of his life. Both leave brothers and sisters.
