She was buried in Riverside Cemetery, Sterling, Colorado with Ulysses. They had three daughters, two of which died at birth. At that time staggering medical bills forced Liss to declare bankruptcy. When the business was again solvent, Liss, who was scrupulously honest, paid his creditors every dime he owed them, with interest. His banker, at the time, said he had never known of another person who did this. A few years after Ina’s death, Liss married Willynett "Lynette" Blaine Conklin, the widow of a Sterling dentist. Through many staggering adversities, Liss’ spirit never wavered, nor did he ever complain or criticize another. Liss was killed on September 26, 1963, in an automobile accident on Monarch Pass in Colorado. He was buried with his wife, Ina, in Riverside Cemetery, Sterling, Colorado. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Obituary of Ulysses S. Crist in The Sterling Journal Advocate, Friday September 27, 1963 Ulysses S. Crist, 70, long time Sterling clothing merchant was killed Thursday night when his auto plunged 300 feet off Monarch Pass in Gunnison County. Mr. Crist’s wife, Willynette, was taken to Gunnison Community hospital following the crash with a fractured pelvis and jaw and multiple bruises. A third person in the auto, Hulda Mina Jahnke, 76, of Bellvue west of Fort Collins, was also killed. The state patrol said the car skidded following a right-hand curve on U.S. 50 and rolled down the mountainside. Mr. and Mrs. Crist moved to their mountain home at Bellvue after his retirement here less than two years ago. He sold the Crist Toggery, men’s clothing store, to Harold Sperber in February, 1962. Funeral arrangements for Mr. Crist are incomplete. Mr. Crist was born in Darksville, MO on November 18, 1892. He attended Sumner, Missouri schools, then moved to Sterling in 1905 and attended Sterling schools participating in football and basketball. He was a partner in the Hagadorn and Crist shop which opened in 1922, after previous employment with C. R. Bauman, Farrell Pharmacy, Zoellner Bros., Simon Raabe, Glass and Bryant, Jos. H. Strutzel and Magees from 1908 to 1922. He later developed the Hagadorn and Crist shop into the Toggery, which he operated until selling to Sperber in 1962. A golfer, hunter and fisherman, Mr. Crist was a member of the Methodist church, Elks and County Club. Mr. Crist’s first wife, Ina S. Crist, died several years ago. Besides his present wife, a daughter, Betty Jane Ayle, also survives. The two deaths in the accident last night bring the year’s death toll on the highways to 373, compared to 343 a year ago.
