OBITUARY: ANDREW DILLING Another member of the old guard of Bowman- ville,Andrew Dilling,passed away at his home on Nelson St. Sunday morning,August 29,1948 . He had been in failing health for some time and died peacefully at the age of 82. Known to all the old timers and most of the people in town. Mr. Dilling was regarded as one of the finest men and most lovable characters in the community. His hobbies of gardening,poultry raising and pet animals and pedigree dogs attracted a host of friends to his home year after year. And he was never too busy to stop and talk and explain how to raise and feed pets. That is a phase of good citizenship that is too little emphasized. For it marks a man of character and friendliness. Born in Bowmanville,Mr. Dilling was the eldest son of the late Mr. and Mrs. B. Dilling. Educat- ed in Bowmanville schools he followed the trade of moulding for many years before join- ing Goodyear-Bowmanville for a period of 20 years. He retired eight years ago to devote his whole time to his interests about home. In earlier years Mr. Dilling raised pedigreed poultry and was a kenn competitor among quuite a few others in town who captured important prizes at fall fairs in the good old days. After his retirement however he was invited by university clinics to raise guinea pigs for their laboratories. He became a specialist in that line and became widely known in clinical circles. He received his greatest thrill when Monica Mugan,Toronto radio commentator over CKEY, came to his home and interviewed him on his hobbies. But he always got a thrill when his neighbors and friends including the editor of The Statesman called at his home to seek his expert-advice or to secure a fine puppy. Mr. Dilling was twice married,first to Agnes Hayes and secondly to Annie Alcumbrack. He leaves to mourn his passing,five daughters and four sons: Mrs. Roy Murphy,Oshawa,Ed- ward and Andrew Dilling; Mrs. H.M. Tyrrell,Tor- onto; Mrs. Roland McDonald,California; Mrs. Almon Fletcher,Bowmanville and George and Doris and Bernard Dilling. There are also five sisters and three brothers and nineteen gran- dchildren who remain to mourn a grand old man. The funeral was held on September 7 with his pastor Rev. S. R. Henderson of Trinity United Church,conducting the services. Services were also held by the members of Florence Nightingale Lodge of which Mr. Dilling was an adherent and active member for 58 years. He was borne to the grave in Bowmanville Cemet- ery by fellow members. A great number of floral wreaths of remembrance were carried to the graveside by grandsons,nephews and friends.
