Summary

Near the end of the July 1975 issue, the Beaver Beacon reports that Father Donahoe had died at home the previous evening and says a complete obituary and funeral arrangements would appear in the next issue.

Evidence and limits

This is intentionally an incomplete death notice. The exact date, place, civil identity, funeral, and burial remain open until the later obituary is held and reviewed.
