MAN DIES IN SCRIBA FIRE - TWO WOMEN LEAP FROM SECOND FLOOR AFTER KIDS LOWERED TO SAFETYShow Details
Post-Standard, The (Syracuse, NY) - December 10, 2010Browse Issues
A fire late Wednesday that killed one man and forced 15 people to scramble to escape a Scriba apartment building apparently began accidentally in the dead man's apartment, fire investigators said.

Robert P. Rose, 25, who lived in Apt. B of the building at 6 Beech Drive, was tentatively identified as the man who perished in the fire, the Oswego County Sheriff's Department said Thursday. The body was found by firefighters in the debris near Rose's apartment, officials said.

The fire was reported at 11:09 p.m. to the Oswego County 911 center. When deputies arrived at the address, the building was already engulfed in flames, officials said.

Two women and two children were trapped on a second-floor balcony, according to the sheriff's department. The children were lowered to rescuers and the women jumped, deputies said. One woman suffered a minor injury in the jump and was taken by ambulance to Oswego Hospital.

In all, 16 residents, including seven children under the age of 7 years old, were in the four-apartment building when the fire was discovered. All residents of the four apartments were accounted for except for the victim, deputies said.

Investigators determined the preliminary cause of the fire to be accidental during food preparation inside Apt. B, police said. Undersheriff Robert Lighthall said one of Rose's roommates had been cooking.

The body was removed from the burned building and taken to the Onondaga County Medical Examiner's Office in Syracuse, officials said. Positive identification of the body and a cause of death are not expected until next week, officials said.

The identities of other residents of the apartment building were not released by the sheriff's department.

19266 Robert Rollin Edwards - May 16, 1894 - October 24, 1918. Interment date July 26, 1921. Plot R-111. Military Service: Private First Class in Headquarters, Company 107th Infantry, 27th Division, United States Army, during World War I, killed in action. Son of Charles David and Katherine Shepherd “Kate” Maltby Edwards. Husband of Mildred LaCelle Edwards. Married June 10, 1917 at Pulaski, New York.
Newspaper Obituary - Wednesday, December 18, 1918 Pulaski Democrat - Pulaski, New York - Robert R. Edwards - Born May 16, 1894 at Pulaski, New York. Enlisted May 1, 1917 - Went to France April 1918 - Died in France, October 24, 1918. “Not now, but in coming years, It may be in the Better Land, We'll know the meaning of our tears, Someday will understand.” We have been brought face-to-face with facts which we find it hard to meet and endure and found them hard to understand. We have often wondered why God permits these things to come to pass, for it is not as we had willed and planned. Only a little over four years ago our world seem to be at peace and everything seemed to be moving along smoothly when the news came flashing across the sea that Germany had plunged into Belgium and was killing the people, destroying cities and laying a trail of devastation. This thing went on until the United States was obliged to take a part in the great and awful war. American boys came to the front to volunteer as soon as the call was sent out for them to do so and our village was not lacking in patriots. Among the first to enlist was Robert R. Edwards, son of Mr. and Mrs. Charles D. Edwards, of this village. - Robert Rollin Edwards - Robert Rollin Edwards was born in the town of Richland, New York May 16, 1894, to Katie S. and Charles D. Edwards. Till the age of twenty-two all his life was spent in Pulaski. He passed through the Pulaski Grammar School and attended the Pulaski High School for two and a half years. After that he worked in the various furniture factories in Pulaski until he enlisted May 1, 1917 in Company D, First New York National Guard, Ogdensburg. He reported for duty May 4, 1917 and was for some time on guard duty at Effy Falls, near Croghan, New York. June 10, 1917 he was married to Miss Mildred L. Lacelle. He then had a five-week furlough, which expired about the time that the National Guard was federalized. August 18, 1918 he left Ogdensburg with his regiment and was in camp at Van Cortlandt Park, New York City, until October 3, 1917. He then went to Camp Wadsworth, Spartanburg, South Carolina, where he remained until sometime in April 1918. After a few weeks at Newport News, Virginia, he sailed for France with the 27th Division, and spent his twenty-fourth birthday on the ocean. He took part in the heavy fighting about St. Quintin, September 29th to October 3, 1918, but came through unhurt. It is not known whether he was in battle with his regiment October 17th to 20th. On November 19, 1918, his parents received a telegram from the adjutant-general stating that Private Robert R. Edwards had died of influenza in France, October 24, 1918. Mrs. Robert Edwards has since received a letter from the American Red Cross chaplain of General Hospital Number 12, B.E.F., describing the burial services for her husband. He was borne in a flag-draped coffin on the shoulders of comrades, preceded by the clergyman, and followed by military escort. Beautiful flowers were sent for him by the American Red Cross, and the burial service from the Prayer Book of the Episcopal church was read. Then the last volleys were fired and the bugle sounded taps for his long last sleep. Robert was a member of the Baptist church in Pulaski and the Baraca class there. All his life testified to his faithful devotion to duty and to the strength and sweetness of his character. His loss is deeply mourned by his wife, Mrs. Mildred Edwards, and his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Charles D. Edwards, and by his sisters and brothers, Mrs. William Jay Ellis, Mrs. Lawson M. Lighthall, Mr. Franklin E. Edwards and Mr. Thomas J. Edwards. “Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friend.” Sunday afternoon a memorial service was held in the Baptist church, for the young man who sacrificed his life for the great cause of human rights. The service was attended by a large congregation. The program consisted of a selection by the choir; prayer by Rev. Frank H. Ferris, who spoke a few fitting words concerning the life of Robert Mike: Rev. Charles T. Holcombe read a portion of scripture and Rev. H. V. Miller gave a memorial address, closing with the touching and always appropriate hymn as a solo, “Some Day We’ll Understand.”
In this connection we deem the following letter most appropriate and give it is a part of this memorial to our honored dead. From Rev. Arthur B. Rudd, Chaplain, American Red Cross, Rouen. To Director of the Chaplain's Bureau, American Red Cross, Paris, France. Subject: Description of St. Sever’s Cemetery, Rouen. Today I visited the cemetery where the American men are buried. It is a most lovely and peaceful spot, situated on a high plateau above the city of Rouen in the valley of the Seine, and surrounded by beautiful forest covered mountains. It is a part of the city cemetery of St. Sever, as this section is called. Passing through the older part of the cemetery where both Roman Catholics and Protestants are buried, and whose graves are marked with many beautiful monuments we come to the newer part where rest thousands of English and other Allied dead. The crosses stand row by row. Some of the temporary wooden crosses have been already replaced by monuments of marble. Everywhere is beautiful fresh green grass and all the graves are covered with blooming flowers, chiefly asters, marigolds, chrysanthemums and sweet alyssum. On further we come to a still newer section where the grass has not yet been planted but the whole section is one vast flower garden and the air is heavy with the perfume of flowers. White and purple and yellow are the prevailing colors just now, and the whole ground is covered between the well laid out roads. The ground of the cemetery is dry and gravelly and this is carefully overlaid with about a foot of rich garden loam. The whole grading and planting is done by a wonderful organization of young British women who make this care of the cemeteries their special work. They are working there all day long and have produced wonderful results. The American officers and enlisted men have a special section by themselves that is as carefully cared for as the British section. I have never seen more reverent care in the conduct of funerals. The strange thing over here seems to me that men and women do not become hardened to suffering and death as one might suppose but that they become more and more tender as the years go by. The graves of all the Jewish boys are marked with a cross bearing the name, rank and cause and place of death. Very careful records are kept in the books of the cemetery, each grave being numbered. It is said that the American government expects to remove to America after the war all the bodies of the American dead, but I think that if the friends could see those beautiful cemeteries, they would wish to have the boys sleep here with their comrades in the land where they fought so splendidly and died so bravely. Faithfully yours, Arthur B. Rudd, American Red Cross Chaplain. The grave of Private Robert Edwards is No. 8046.
Newspaper Obituary - Wednesday, July 27, 1921 Pulaski Democrat - Pulaski, New York - Fallen Heroes Honored in Pulaski - Robert R. Edwards and Delbert W. Russell Victims of War Ravages, Brought to America for Burial - Pulaski and Altmar received bodies of young men who went out from their borders in the days of the World War and did honor to them by assembling for military services and accorded them the honors of military burial. It has been expected for some time that the body of Robert Rollen Edwards, son of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Edwards, would arrived from France, where he was laid in military grave, at the time of his death, by pneumonia, in October, 1918 and the body arrived, Sunday morning, from Hoboken, where many bodies were received through the government's transportation lines, in the past month. There was a delegation of Robert Edwards Post, American Legion, and friends at the station. The body was taken in charge by Undertaker Paul Foster and escorted by the Legion men to the courthouse, where it was placed in the corridor of the courthouse. Later in the day Undertaker E. A. Feld, of Altmar, brought the body of Delbert Russell, son of Mr. and Mrs. John Russell, formerly of Altmar, now of Lacona, who was killed in the French line, while in service, July 15, 1918. Both caskets were enclosed in boxes covered with the stars and stripes. A guard was placed over the caskets until yesterday when they were removed to the Baptist church where services were held at 10 o'clock. Commander W. Taylor Barr, of Robert Edwards Post, had charge of the arrangements and to him is due credit for doing the service well. There were all the people in the church that could get in and many outside. The gathering included the Grand Army of the Republic, Sons of American Legion and Legion Auxiliary, D.A.R. Veterans, Relief Corps. Rev. William MacLeod read a scripture lesson and offered prayer, Rev. W. S. Warren, pastor of the Baptist church gave a very excellent address and Mr. B. G. Seamans spoke for a brief space, as a response to the request of the family of Delbert Russell. A quartet consisting of W. Taylor Barr, Jacob Youngs, Ernest Dillenbeck and Henry Martinett, sang “Nearer My God to Thee.” The line of military order was formed at the church, with a long line of military men, ahead and decide the two hearses, in which were carried the caskets of the two dead comrades. The various organizations were also largely represented. The line moved to Pulaski cemetery where the body of Robert Edwards was lowered in the grave with the honors of the Legion, including the salute fired by a firing squad from Ontario Military Post, at Oswego and a buglers’ part was given. After the ceremony was finished at Pulaski cemetery the Legion and firing squad accompanied the body of Delbert Russell to Bethel cemetery, two miles east of Lacona, where military honors were accorded with the ceremony given at the grave of Edwards in Pulaski. Robert Edwards was born in Pulaski, May 16, 1894. He enlisted May 1, 1917, and went to France in April 1918, serving to the time of his illness and death, October 24, 1918. June 10, 1917 he married Mildred L. LaCelle. Delbert Russell was born in Sandy Creek and was twenty-two years of age when he was killed, on July 15, 1918, on the French line, doing service. He went into the service in November 1917, and went to France and March 1918. The people who helped to fitting honor to the memory of these two American boys, from this locality, will feel that they have only done a small thing compared to the great sacrifice the fallen made. Friends and organizations gave liberally of floral tributes which were resting upon the caskets. We are sure Pulaski represented the solemn occasion for flags were thrown to the breeze in many sections and business places were closed during the ceremonies at the church and while the line was passing through the street. - Appreciation - Commander Barr wishes the Democrat to say to the people that the kind Legion is thankful for the kind assistance given in the way of automobiles and other favors which were needed to make the day successful in the details planned for the honor service.

19296 Roena E. Ripsom - September 13, 1845 - January 11, 1927. Daughter of John and Ellen McMarlin Ripsom. Wife of Hartwell Douglass. Section 2, Row 11.
Newspaper Obituary - January 19, 1927 Pulaski Democrat - Pulaski, New York - Mrs. Rena Ripsom Douglass departed for her "Mansion Above" last Tuesday evening as the shades of evening were being drawn and the world was passing towards slumber of the night. She had never been sick, to mention, and her appreciation of danger from illness was not very keen, so she did not realize her nearness to the valley of death until the shadows fell. She was stricken with pneumonia about two weeks before her passing and in spite of all the best nursing could do for her she went beyond the danger line and slipped away. Mrs. Douglass was born in a house not now standing, on the west side of the long hill leading from the north to Daysville cemetery, on the road leading south from Port Ontario. Her birth occurred September 13, 1845. She was daughter of Captain John Ripsom. When she became the wife of Hartwell Douglass, sixty years ago the 6th of February, she went up a few rods to a home the young farmer had ready. There she lived for forty years, laboring and making a home for the present and providing for the future. She was many years a faithful member of Daysville Grange and attended the little church at Daysville while residing there. When, twenty years ago last December, Mr. Douglass bought the Tollner house, Jefferson Street, they came to Pulaski to reside. Ten years ago the coming 6th of February, an elaborate celebration of their golden wedding took place in their home which was attended by a great gathering of friends. Last spring they moved to the home, formerly the Dixson house, Jefferson Street. Mrs. Douglass lived much in the quiet of home, gentle, kind, and loved by all her friends. Funeral services were held in the home, Friday, at half past one, with Rev. E. H. Scott, pastor of the Methodist church officiating, assisted by B. G. Seamans who also conducted the committal service at Daysville cemetery. Friends from out of town attending the funeral were her only sister, Mrs. Spencer Knollen, her niece, Mrs. Reo Hadley, of Sandy Creek, and her niece, Mrs. Fred Thomas, of Redfield and Mr. Reo Hadley, of Sandy Creek.

Born on Aug. 23, 1936, Roger was the son of the former Elmer and Alice Gareau (Bombard).

On Nov. 12, 1955, he was united in marriage to June M. Villnave at St. John Bosco Church in Malone by Father Stone. His wife survives.

Roger was employed for 32 years by the New York State Power Authority in Massena, New York, as a senior operator and retired in 1991. He was also a licensed realtor.

Roger was a life member of the BEST Hunting Club, a regular bowler in the Monday and Thursday night leagues in Moira, New York, as well as a member of the Malone Golf Club, where he was fortunate enough to get his first ‘hole in one’. Roger was the Moria town assessor in the 1970s and town councilman for eight years;, he served on the Brushton-Moira School Board of Education for 11 years, both as a member and as a president; and for over 25 years volunteered at the Brushton Food Pantry. Roger also enjoyed spending his weekday mornings at the La Page Stables, pampering the horses and getting them ready to race.

Roger is also survived by his son, Brian R, Gareau and his wife, Particia, of Edwards, Illinois; his daughter, Jennifer A. Yando and her husband, Dean, of Malone; three grandchildren, Brandi Clark and husband Jeff, Benjamin Gareau and wife Stephanie and Kelsey Gareau, all from Illinois; and three great-grandchildren, Evan, Reagan and Camden. He is also survived by two sisters, Marilyn Tatro of Constable, New York, and Barbara Bonville of Whippleville, New York; as well as many nieces and nephews.

A Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated on Monday, Feb. 16, 2015, at 11 a.m. at St. Mary’s Church in Brushton, New York, with a celebration of Roger’s life to follow at the Brushton United Methodist Church, serving dessert, his favorite meal. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in his memory to either the Brushton-Moira Fire and Rescue Squad or the Brushton Food Pantry. The family also asks that you please remember Roger by the life he led in his generosity of self by practicing a random act of kindness to someone you know, someone in need, or a complete stranger. Roger lived selflessly and would wish for us all to ‘pay it forward’.

Arrangements are through the Bruso-Desnoyers Funeral Service Inc. of Malone, New York.
