In October, 1969, his brother titon died. This was a great loss for Walter.

He was a son of Fredrick and Zina Ash Mackerell. When he was eight years old and his younger brother, Elton, was four years old, their mother died. For several years the boys were cared for by their grandparents, Joseph and Mary Lundblad Ash. After this period, their father moved ta home and raised his sons with a minimum of outside assistance. When he was just a young boy, Walter went to work for James Frazer who did much of the cement work in the community. (Some of the old cement sidewalks made by Mr. Frazer and his assistants are still in use in Both Walter Beaver today.) and Elton learned the carpentry trade from their father who was a graduate of the apprentice system in England and who operated a retail lumber business in Beaver In partnership with George H. Cockett. Walter received his education In the Beaver school system and studied one year at the Branch Normal School In Cedar City, now known as Southern Utah State College. While he was at the B.N.S., he met Margery Adams who later became his wife. After their marriage, they established a home iii Beaver and have resided here continuously. They have four living daughters: Bernlce and Mildred who live in Beaver, M argery who lives in Cedar City, and Shirley who lives In Tucson, Arizona. They have nine grandchildren and six greatgrandchildren. Walter was in excellent health most of his life, and he was a hard worker. He helped to build many of the older homes in Beaver and quite a number of homes in Milford. He spent much time in remodling houses and in cabinet making. He has helped to build great numbers of weirs, flumes, and bridges in the irrigation systems throughout the entire county. He was one of the carpenters who helped In the construction of the Beaver High School building. him in 1972. Walter was baptized Into the L.D.S. Church September 11, 1902. He was not a church-goin- g man, but he was an honest man who believed in God and He loved in life after death. and he the great claimed the high peaks werehis temples.

He loved to read, and he and his wife always had an abundance of reading material in their home. When their daughters were young and In school, Walter would assist them in their homework, and he would spend hours patiently playing games with them in the winter evenings. Although he never did file for a political position, he was always interested In local, state, and national governmental activities, and he never failed to vote. He was at heart a sensitive person who enjoyed good conversation, especially with his lifelong friends, most of whom have preceded him In death. He loved bis home town and never could be persuaded to le ave it. He continually supported his wife in her many civic activities and also In her family obligations.
