Oct. 14, 1918 – Feb. 1, 2005
A graveside funeral service was held Friday, 
Feb. 4 at the Tehachapi Public Cemetery, 
Eastside, for Glen Killingsworth, 86, who 
passed away Feb. 1 in Eufaula, Okla.
Glen was born Oct. 14, 1918, in Pierce, Okla. to 
Owen and Lilly Killingsworth. He moved to 
Arvin in 1940 and then to Tehachapi in 1946 
after marrying Mildred Pitman in Hot Springs, 
Ark. Glen worked as a miller at Monolith 
Cement Company, retiring after 34 years of 
service. He moved to Checotah, Okla., in 1994, 
while still maintaining his home in Tehachapi.
Glen will best be remembered for his love of 
raising his own cattle, rabbits and chickens, 
and working in his garden. He also enjoyed 
playing dominos and 31, and his very own 
gentle practical jokes on others.
Glen is survived by his daughter, Glenda Ursua 
and husband Larry of Tehachapi; sons, Douglas 
Killingsworth and wife Monica of Saginaw, 
Texas, Ron Killingsworth and wife Pat of 
Powderly, Texas and Anthony Killingsworth and 
wife Peggy of Mesquite, Texas; 14 
grandchildren; 19 great-grandchildren; four 
great-great-grandchildren; and sister, Ruby 
Loperena of San Jose. He was preceded in 
death by his wife, Mildred, in 1989.
Reverend Jerry McCullah officiated at the 
service. Wood Family Funeral Service handled 
the arrangements.
