Friends Pay
Tribute To
John W. Troy
“The passing of John Troy is a
sincere shock to our entire com
munity. He was one of the finest,
lovable characters that I ever
hope to meet. Mr. Lucas and my
self will miss him because we
loved him too.” said Harry L.
Lucas, Mayor, in commenting on
the death of John W. Troy last
Saturday afternoon.
“I have known John for JO
years. He was the greatest man
Alaska has had or ever will have.
Further words fail in apprecia
tion of knowin him as a real,
personal friend and knowing him
as a true and tried friend of this
great Northland,” J. J. Connors,
Collector of Customs for Alaska
said.
Dimond Wires Sympathy
Among others who sent word
of sympathy were Delegate to
Congress and Mrs. Anthony J.
Dimond who wired in part, “we
have lost a steadfast and loyal
friend and Alaska its first citi
zen.”
Thomas Riggs, former Gover
nor of Alaska, and longtime
friend of Mr. Troy wired. "John
was one of the finest characters
I’ve ever known, loving his
friends and beloved by them. Aj
great mind and a great Gover
nor, he cannot be replaced."
Judge George F. Alexander, of
the United States District Court
of the First Division wired “I
grieve with thousands of friends
over the passing of your distin
guished father. Gov. Troy was
one of the grandest characters
and best friends I have ever
known and his demise marks the
passing of one of the ablest and
best loved characters in Alaskan
history. I regret that I cannot at
tend the funeral.”
Foster L. McGovern, of the:
Seattle Chamber of Commerce,!
stated, “John was a wonderful i
father, sincere friend, great Gov
ernor, lovable character whose;
life was full of constructive ac
complishment.”
A wire from Capt. A. E. Lath
rop said in part. “He was a won j
derful man and my dear friend,”!
and from Mr. and Mrs. G. E. [
Skinner "Alaska has lost its best!
and most respected citizen—”
Said E. L. Bartlett, Secretary
of Alaska:
“Memory ol Trov will live longr
“The memory of John W. Troy'
will live long in the mrtnories of
Alaskans. He left his mark for
good on this Territory in a man
ner which will never be forgot
i ten. I do not suppose that any
man ever lived who was more;
; beloved by all who knew him/
j His keen intelligence and his
I wisdom made him an outstanding
: newspaper editor and publisher
! and public officer; first as Col
! lector of Customs, and then as!
i Governor of Alaska. His friend-!
! ship and loyalty and goodness
! made him an outstanding man. a!
! good neighbor and an unswerv- j
! ing friend. John W. Troy was a
| Christian gentleman in the tru-;
lest meaning of that term. Alaska1
' can ill spare him. Alaska will not;
j forget him."
“The passing of John W. Troy
1 is truly a great loss to the Terri
tory of Alaska. He wa a man j
among men and he will always I
be remembered by his many j
friends," said Oscar G. Olson, I
! Territorial Treasurer.
