His obituary: Paul G. Busby, Gainesville (By Staff Writer).
Paul Grover Busby, 78, 1030 NE Ninth St., died yesterday in a local hospital. A native of Oklahoma, he came here six years ago from Valdosta, Ga., and was a retired public school teacher and Baptist minister. He was a member of Eastside Baptist Church, Gainesville, and Pierce Lodge 144 AF&AM, Calvert, Tex. Survivors include two brothers, Tom Busby and William Busby, both of Oklahoma; two sisters, Mrs. Grace Miller, Washington, D.C., and Mrs. Gene Wall, Texas. [The Tampa Tribune (Fla.), Friday, 18 Dec. 1964: pg. 2A] [Note: Although his obituary states that he arrived in the area six years ago, other information I have found indicates that the information is incorrect. Since the obituary is written by a newspaper staff writer the information is probably hearsay.]
