*Obituary Louise
Three persons were frozen to death and two others were hospitalized today when their pick-up truck stalled nine miles north of the Cactus Ordnance plant at Dumas.
Dead were Robert Wayne Reynolds, age 2 1/2, Juanita Louise Reynolds, age 4, and Mrs. Jessie Toon, age unknown, grandmother of the two children.
Hospitalized were Robert O. Reynolds, father of the children, and his son Kenneth Ray, age 15 months.
The bodies were found by Sam Wihlford, former county commissioner. The truck became stalled in Sherman county nine miles north and 1 1/2 miles west of the Cactus Ordnance plant during the blinding snowstorm and cold wave which swept the Panhandle yesterday.
Roberts is employed by the Pronger Brothers' Hereford ranch near Stratford.
