      Clinton Eye, Clinton MO, Thursday, May 13 1954 - Johnny Lee Boyd, son of John Franklin and Ladonia Wears Boyd was born near Brownington, Mo. Jan. 28, 1889 and departed this life at 5:55 p.m., May 8, at the Clinton General Hospital. All of his life, with the exception of 2 1/2 years in Colorado, was spent in Bethlehem Township of Henry County, Mo. On Jan. 29, 1911, he was united in marriage to Emma Dody who preceded him in death May 29, 1949. To this union were born seven children, all of whom survive, as follows; Johnny Lee Boyd of near Clinton; Mrs. Della Maye Fowler, near Windsor, Mrs. Opal Howard, Independence, Mo.; Charley F, of Clinton; Roy D., near Clinton; Gene M., near Strasburg, Co.; and Owen E., in the U.S. Army. He leaves 8 grandchildren. Brothers and sisters surviving are; Milt Boyd, near Glasgow; Mrs. Myrtle Pogue, Brownington; Mrs. Mary Wycoff, Leeton; William Boyd, Pullman, Wa.; Mrs. Ola Potter, Clifton City, Mo.; Clifton Boyd, Darlington, Mo.; and Mrs. Grace Dody, near Brownington. He was tax collector for Bethlehem Township for 24 years, in which capacity he served conscientiously and well. Ill health forced him to quit farming over three years ago and he has since made his home with a son, Johnny Lee, of near Clinton. Although an invalid for the past 16 months, he was resigned to his condition and strove to be as little trouble as possible to those about him. It can truly be said of Lee Boyd "He lived in a house by the side of the road and was a friend to man." He was always loyal and a man of firm convictions, believing in the right as he saw it and not afraid to disagree. Although he did not unite with any church, he believed in Christ. Funeral services were conducted at the Bethlehem Baptist Church Monday afternoon. His body was tenderly laid to rest in the Maplewood Cemetery at Brownington by the side of his wife.
