Richard Homer Holbrook
Born: January 9, 1922
Hometown: Wayland, NY
Class: 1943
Service: Merchant Marine
Position / Rank: Engine Cadet
Date / Place of death: April 11, 1942 / Berhampur,
India
Date / Place of burial: April 12, 1942 / Catholic
Cemetery, Berhampur, India
Age: 20
Richard H. Holbrook signed on as Engine Cadet aboard the SS Bienville at the Port of
New York on December 12, 1941, less than a week after the United States officially
entered World War II. He was joined by his Academy classmate, Cadet-Midshipman
Robert W. Corliss who signed on as Deck Cadet. According to Corliss’ report, the
Bienville sailed from New York on December 15, 1941 with a crew of 43 bound for Suez
and other ports in the Middle East as directed. After discharging its cargo the Bienville
was ordered to Calcutta, India to load a cargo of manganese ore, jute, burlap and
general cargo. The ship sailed from Calcutta on April 3, bound for Columbo, Ceylon.
Unfortunately, the ship was also bound for a collision with six Japanese aircraft carriers,
escorted by cruisers and destroyers, that were conducting a raid into the Bay of Bengal
known by the Japanese Navy as “Operation C”.
During the morning 4 to 8 watch on April 6, 1942 Cadet-Midshipman Robert Corliss was
a lookout on the bridge when he heard gunfire ahead. In light of the situation he was
ordered to wake all hands. At 0718 the Bienville was attacked by Japanese aircraft and
was hit at the Number 2 hatch, starting a fire. While the crew was fighting the fire two
more Japanese aircraft attacked the Bienville, but without hitting the ship. At this early
point in the war the Bienville had no defensive armament.
In the growing light the crew of the Bienville saw a Japanese aircraft carrier, later
identified as the IJNS Ryujo, and its escorting cruisers and destroyers. The captain
attempted to run from the Japanese fleet and lay a smoke screen to hide behind.
However, their efforts were in vain. At about 0740 a Japanese cruiser, identified after
the war as the heavy cruiser IJNS Chokai, opened fire from less than two miles away,
hitting the ship at least five times, severely wounding Richard Holbrook.

Obituary for Donald E. Holbrook, Sr. Print
HOPE – Donald E. Holbrook, Sr., 79, died Monday, October 22, 2018, with his family at his side at Maine Medical Center in Portland.

Born in Camden, February 7, 1939, he was the son of Clarence H. and Marguerite M. Wing Holbrook. He attended Camden schools.

Always a hard worker, throughout most of his life Donald usually held at least two jobs. His first employment was at the Elmhurst Dairy. He later worked at Chadah’s Greenhouse and drilling wells with Walter Drinkwater. For more than eight years he was employed at Knox Woolen Mill in Camden. The next eight years Donald worked with Marriner’s Paving in Rockport, beginning as a truck driver and, for most of that time, as a Paver Operator. For more than 23 years, he worked as a Heavy Equipment Operator with the Town of Camden, retiring in 2001.

Between and after retiring Donald worked at many odd jobs, including plowing snow and driving taxi.
For the past two years, he drove truck for Ludwig Construction.

While it might appear that all Donald ever did was work, moreover and most importantly, he was the Rock of his family. From the time of his marriage to Patricia Dugan, on June 22, 1957, Donald was committed to his wife as together they raised their family of three sons and a daughter.

His children said that their father was always the go to person for advice and that he could fix or build anything they asked. He was self-taught, displayed immense common sense and was a gentle giant who never got upset.
He enjoyed camping, snowmobiling, four-wheeling and hunting, which often took place at, as he would say, “Upta Camp”, the family’s Haynesville Woods camp.

Other than his parents, Donald was pre-deceased by one brother, Howard Holbrook in 2009. He is survived by his beloved wife of 61 years, Patricia ‘Patsy’ M. Holbrook of Hope; four children, Scott W. Holbrook and his wife Patricia of Warren, Joan H. Tripp and her husband Wayne, John D. Holbrook all of Hope, Donald E. Holbrook, Jr. and his wife Susan of Union; 14 grandchildren, Jason, Matthew, Eric, Travis, Nicole ‘Coley’, Adam ‘Addy’, Chad, Ryan, Donny the III, Austin, Nicholas, Chelsea, Georgianna, Andrew; one great-grandson Marcus; two brothers, Stanley Holbrook and his wife Linda, Fred Holbrook and his wife Dorothy all of Hope; two sisters, Patricia Holbrook of Camden and Evelyn Carleton of Rockport, as well as several nieces and nephews.

Friends and relatives are invited to visit from 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm, Wednesday, October 24, 2018, at Burpee, Carpenter & Hutchins Funeral Home, 110 Limerock Street, Rockland. A graveside service will be held at 11:00 am, Thursday, October 25, 2018, at Hope Grove Extension Cemetery, Rt. 235, Hatchet Mountain Road in Hope.

Walter Pratt Holbrook
May 31, 1923 — October 24, 2018
Walter Pratt Holbrook passed away peacefully on Wednesday, October 24, 2018 in Bountiful, Utah. He was born May 31, 1923, in Bountiful, Utah to Vera Pratt and John Walter Holbrook. He married Marjorie Artis on October 8, 1946, In Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Walt and Marjorie lived numerous years on the East Coast and eventually came to settle in Bountiful, Utah in 1972 where they have resided ever since.

Walt taught his children the value of hard work which stemmed from his own work ethic at a very young age. He had his own vegetable stand on 500 South and 500 West when he was about seven years old and helped to support his family with the proceeds. He was mischievous as a child and youth and was often involved in all sorts of funny “happenings” around Bountiful and when you saw the sheepish grin on his face and the twinkle in those baby blues, you had to wonder just what he was up to. He had beautiful blue eyes, one of the many things Marjorie loved about him.

Walt served his country in World War II, earning the European-African-Middle Eastern Campaign medal with 4 battle stars, and the army Good conduct medal and World War II victory medal. Walt met Marjorie in Philadelphia after the war.

He served as Branch and District President of the Erie Pennsylvania mission, cub master and home teacher for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. He was a member of the accounting profession, and held various positions in the Cuddahy Packing Company, Telemail, and HHI Corporation. Dad finally slowed down to working a couple hours a day at the age of 89 and “retired” around age 91.

He is survived by Marjorie Artis Holbrook, his wife of 72 years, and his children, Stephanie Todd, John W. Holbrook, Karen Holbrook-Hughes (Jackie), and Veronica Holbrook-Bentley (Doug), four grandchildren and three great-grandchildren.

The Family would like to give a special thanks to Brighton Hospice for their incredible care and Legacy House of Bountiful for their dedicated care.

A viewing will be held on Sunday evening, October 28, 2018 at Russon Mortuary, 295 N. Main St., Bountiful, UT from 6 to 8 pm. A viewing will be held Monday morning October 29, 2018, from 9:45-10:45 am and the funeral will follow at 11 am.

We love you Dad and will forever miss the twinkle in your eyes and that mischievous grin
