First
of flood victims
laid to rest
Pallbearers in Cambridge, O.,
delivered the body of Roger E. DeNoon for burial
following the flash floods near Shadyside, O.
Family believes man died
in attempt to help others
CAMBRIDGE, O. -- The body of Roger E. DeNoon was one of the first to be found after a flood
ravaged the Ohio Valley community of Shadyside last Thursday. Yesterday, in a silent hillside cemetery
here, DeNoon was the first to be buried.
Shortly after a military burial in
Guernsey County Memory Gardens, members of the grieving family said they
weren't sure why the 51-year-old man was taken from them, but they think they
know how he was swept up in the flash flood.
DeNoon,
family members said, was waiting for a ride from his wife, Gloria, and one of
their daughters, Kelly Ann, at a nearby grocery store. He was walking home from the Shadyside VFW
Post, but stopped at the store on his way home because it had begun raining.
Before Gloria DeNoon
and her daughter could travel the few miles from their Wegee
Creek home to the store, DeNoon had disappeared.
"We think he heard people
screaming down in the creek and went to help them," said Roger DeNoon Jr., one of DeNoon's two
sons. "He wouldn't have been
walking in the rain if he had a ride coming.
That valley was full of screaming people. We know he went down in there to help
someone.
"He's a hero in our book."
DeNoon was a
veteran of the Marine Corps and the Army.
He hasn't worked since 1973, when he fell 2 1/2 stories from a scaffold
while installing aluminum siding on a house in Illinois. As he fell the siding in his hands struck a
live electric line, sending 12,000 volts of electricity through his body. He suffered severely burned hands and legs
and seriously damaged his back.
"He survived that," Gloria DeNoon said.
"But not this. But it's not
in our control. It's God's
decision."
Family members spoke proudly of DeNoon who they say would do anything for anybody. He was a person who, Roger Jr. said,
"would give you the shirt off his back if you needed it."
Though the family had moved to
Shadyside only eight months ago, they apparently had made a lot of
friends. About two dozen people drove
the 45 miles to Cambridge from Shadyside, where private services were held.
The family and others gathered in the
Bauknecht funeral home to pay their respects.
During the service, several small groups of people stood outside,
waiting to lay to rest Edna and John Andrecht, an
elderly couple killed by the torrential waters.
"We want the people of Shadyside
who have family members missing to know they're not alone," said Roger
Jr. "We lost a lot, because we
loved my Dad a lot, but there are others out there who lost everything."
Gloria DeNoon
said that since the accident in 1973, her husband had often been in pain. "But his pain's over now," she
said. "He's with God."*
