From Geneva Daily Times 26 March 1910.
Phelps, N. Y. - The death of R. A. Willing, a well-known manufacturing and prominent citizen of Phelps, occurred suddenly yesterday afternoon. Mr. Willing was sitting by the window at his residence on East Main street, reading a newspaper when he was seized with a sudden attack of heart trouble. He expired before a physician could be summoned. Thirty-five years ago Mr. Willing came to Phelps and engaged in the milling business. He first built the Star flour mill, half a mile north of Phelps, and then three years later purchased the mill at Unionville. Both concerns he successfully conducted up to the time of his death. About a month ago Mr. Willing gave up active work on the advice of his physician in the hopes that rest and quiet would restore him to health, it having become known that his heart was affected. The deceased was a native of England, having been born at Devonshire 54 years ago. He always took an active interest in the welfare of the village of his adoption, was kind and generous to the needy and a man whose death is a severe loss to this community. He was a lifelong and active member of the Presbyterian church. Forty years ago Mr. Willing was united in marriage to Miss Ormanta Watson, who survives. He also leaves four sons, William A. of Des Moines, Ia., Adelbert and Robert of Phelps and Stuart of Williamson; also one daughter, Miss Helen, who resides at home.
