Obituary for Caleb Berton Huffman
Caleb Berton Huffman, 98, of Boomer passed peacefully into the arms of his Savior on the morning of March 13, 2015 at Montgomery General Hospital Extended Care. Berton was born September 23, 1916 in Mount Nebo, WV to Benton and Laura O'Dell Huffman. Berton lived a life of service to others including his precious wife of 69 years the late Etta O'Dell Huffman. He was a member of the Coal Valley Masonic Lodge #74, a Veteran of World War II and served as treasurer of the Boomer Volunteer Fire Department for many years. He was retired from Elkem Metals in Alloy and was a member of the Glasgow United Methodist Church.
With loving memories, he is survived by his daughters and spouses, Charlotte and Jerry Martin of Mount Nebo and Betty Jo and Stanley Garten of Glasgow. Four grandchildren survive Berton's legacy including Deborah Martin Hill and husband Chuck of Mount Nebo, Angela Martin Tackett and spouse, Matt of Boomer, Chris Garten and wife, Katie of Glasgow and Amanda Garten of Glasgow. Great grandchildren blessed by his life include Kristin Hill Faust, and husband Frankie, of Williston ND, Jordan Hill and wife Jennifer of Summersville, Zachary, Austin, Jacob, Justin, and Wesley Hill of Mount Nebo; Mara Lewis of South Charleston, Rebecca and Samantha Tackett of Boomer, Gavin, Kasen and Brycen Garten of Glasgow. Although his time was short and the distance was far, Berton was able to share several visits with his great-great grandson Frankie Faust from North Dakota. Also surviving Berton is his youngest sibling, Alva Huffman of Tennessee.
Berton was preceded in death by his loving wife, Etta O'Dell Huffman, parents Benton and Laura
Huffman, siblings, Edna, Alta, Vida, Chauncey, Delbert, Johnny and Lovell. The family wishes to extend a special thanks to the staff and residents of Montgomery General Hospital Extended Care Unit for making Berton feel welcomed and loved for the past three years
