Deceased Name: Melvin T. Houghton
Final rites and burial services for Melvin T. Houghton of Bellingham will be held in Yuma, Arizona this week. Mr. Houghton died on Friday, July 20, 2001 at age 77. A native of Howard, Kansas, Melvin was educated in the Butler County, Kansas Public Schools and enlisted in the U.S.Army at the start of World War II. He was sent immediately overseas where he served in the African campaign, then in the Italian offensive as a driver in the Army's forward mechanized units. Following the Allied victory in Europe, Melvin was assigned to the Pacific Theatre of Operations. Following his military discharge he returned home to Kansas where he completed technical training in Kansas City in automotive repairs. He married his school friend, Chloe Trowbridge of Rosalia, Kansas. They had three children. The couple moved to Yuma, Arizona in the mid-sixties, where Melvin spent some 20 years as a tank test driver in the U.S. Army's Yuma Proving Ground. After the death of his first wife in Yuma, Melvin married an old Kansas school friend, Phyllis Taliaferro of Bellingham. Among the survivors, aside from Phyllis Houghton, are three children, Gary Houghton, Carol Brooks and Karen Stamp, all of the Yuma area. Also, Donna Trecker of Bellingham, Dorothy Scalzitti of Stanwood, and Dale Taliaferro of Winnemucca, Nevada. Local arrangements by
