Funeral For Billy Levy
Held In Kotzebue Today
The funeral of Billy Levy, bush
pilot of Kotzebue who was killed
in a crash last Saturday ten miles
from Shishmaref, will be held to
day, it has been announced at
Kotzebue.
Beulah Levy, his mother, and
Archie Ferguson arrived there
yesterday, according to advices
received here.
Sammy Mogg, who returned
yesterday from Shishmaref and
who helped remove the bodies
from the wreck, stated that after
the plane left Shishmaref bound
for Deering it turned back and
circled the village trying to land
but due to the fog could not find
a way to get in.
He states that every person in
the village was watching for the
plane and trying to see it through
the fog but had no idea where it
was until the wreck was spotted
after the fog lifted. Levy’s wrist
watch had stopped at about eight
o’clock, shortly after the last time
they had heard the plane over
head.
Mogg states it was a difficult
job to get the bodies of Levy and
his passenger Kathryn Moses from
the wreckage as they were frozen
and twisted. The bodies were
wrapped in tenting. John Cross of
Wien Airlines picked up Levy’s
body and took it to Kotzebue.
An Alaska Airlines plane left
this morning with several floral
pieces from local business houses
and friends. ''
