  Notes	Roy Clifford Striffler (8 Aug 1889/90, NY - 5 Oct 1962, NY, buried Cold Spring Cemetery, Lockport, Niagara County, NY) Niagara Falls Gazette, October 5, 1966: Oil Salesman, 72, Is Killed As Cars Crash in Beebe Road NEWFANE - A 72 year old salesman for the Dahl Oil Co. here for the last five years was killed instantly at 9:58 a.m. today in a head-on , two-car crackup in rain-slicked Beebe Road, about a mile north of Ridge Road. Roy C. Striffler, 566 High St., was pronounced dead at the scene by County Coroner Dr. George V. Muscato. Death was due to head and internal injuries according to the Sheriff's Department. Chester L. Borget, 21, of 2720 Ridge Road, Ransomville, the other drive , was shaken up and treated and released at Ransomville General Hospital. Sheriff's Deputies William M. Sibolski, William H. Munch and Paul E. Crane, and Criminal Deputy John W. Cole investigated. Mr. Borget told the deputies he was traveling north in Beebe Road and that the Striffler car was headed south when the collision occured. He said the Striffler car apparently was attempting to make a left turn into a driveway. Fred Dahl, owner of the Dahl firm, Park Avenue, said Mr. Striffler left the office this morning to collect bills and that he was "in his usual good spirits." He said Mr. and Mrs. Striffler had celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary in June. Mr. Striffler, who formerly operated the Elevated Coal Co., Lockport, for several years, had been a salesman for the Dahl firm since Jan 1, 1957. Before working at Dahl's he had been a salesman for the Crosby-Whipple Oil Col, here. Surviving besides his wife, are a daughter, Mrs. Clement H. Whitmore, and two brothers, Floyd and Glen Striffler, all of Lockport. Funeral arrancgements were being made.
