Kollar, son of James Horace Kollar and Emma Rose Day, on May 25, 1924 at St. Joseph, Berrien Co., Michigan.1,4 As of May 25, 1924,her married name was Kollar.1 Eva Florence Wilcoxen died on October 26, 1926 at Plymouth, Marshall Co., Indiana, at age 18.3,4 She Mrs. Eva Kollar, age 18, of South Bend, was instantly killed, Lawrence Lawhend, age nine, son of Mr. and Mrs. Clifford A. Lawhead, 1638 North College street, sustained a fractured skull and is not expected to live, and Emmett Burris, also of South Bend, was seriously, hurt, when the automobile in which they were riding was struck a train at the Pennsylvania railroad crossing, one and one-half miles east of Plymouth, Ind., near the Marshall county farm, shortly after 2 o'clock Tuesday afternoon. The three were riding in a Chevrolet car and were towing a Ford, in which Mr. and Mrs. Lawhead, parents of the injured boy, were riding. The force of the impact broke the rope, saving the Ford car occupants. Emmett Burris is a brother of Mrs. Lawhead and Mrs. Kollar a neighbor. How the accident occurred is not known. It is thought the occupants of the car were unacquainted with the road and the crossing and were unable to stop before the car came onto the railroad, or they failed to note the approaching train. The flyer struck the Chevrolet and the bumper, to which the Ford was tied, was jerked off the Chevrolet, which was carried down the track about 30 yards where a part of the top and body fell away. About 25 yards farther west, the train came to a stop and the remainder of the car was taken off. The automobile was completely destroyed. Mr. Burris sustained a broken arm. The body of Mrs. Koller was to be brought to South Bend this afternoon. Funeral services will be held Thursday afternoon at 2 o'clock in the home of Mrs. Kollar's father, John Wilcoxen, 102 South St. Louts boulevard. Surviving Mrs. Kollar besides her father are her husband, Lawrence D. Kollar, two children, William and Lawrence, Jr. on October 27, 1926.4

     William Arthur Kollar was born on June 26, 1924 at South Bend, St. Joseph Co., Indiana.2,4,3,5 He married Margaret Bell Bluhm on June 26, 1945 at Starke Co., Indiana.4,5,9 William Arthur Kollar died on February 20, 2020 at Baldwin, Lake Co., Michigan, at age 95.4,9 He William “Bill” Kollar, a longtime resident of Edwardsburg and Irons, Michigan passed away quietly to his rest in the loving arms of Jesus on Saturday, February 22, 2020 at Grand Oaks Nursing Home, Baldwin, Michigan. Bill was born on June 26, 1924 in South Bend, Indiana to Lawrence and Eva (Wilcoxen) Kollar. At the age of 2, both he and his younger brother were placed in the South Bend orphanage due to the tragic death of their mother. During the summers he would be sent to relatives' farms to work as a farmhand. In 1937 he moved with his father and new step-mother to a farm near Edwardsburg. He put his experience with farm vehicles to good use during his high school years, by driving a school bus. In 1943, he was one of 19 graduates from Edwardsburg. After his marriage to Margaret Bluhm in 1945, they settled in Edwardsburg and raised 3 daughters. After working as a deliveryman for Robertson's Department Store, he purchased the Standard Oil station of Main Street, Edwardsburg. He also was a founding member of Edwardsburg Community Baptist Church, appointed an auxiliary constable, and drove ambulance for Paul Mayhew Funeral Home. In 1969, Bill was hired as Edwardsburg's first bus superintendent, which he held until his retirement in 1988. In 1992 Bill and Margaret sold their home in Edwardsburg and moved to the “wilds” of northern Michigan. He kept himself active doing yard work, serving as a founding member of Faith Fellowship Church of Irons, and enjoying coffee and chit-chat with the guys at the bait shop. Even though he had many health concerns, including a broken leg, making him wheelchair bound for the last 3 years, Bill never lost his sense of humor. Each week he checked his newspapers, jokingly stating that he must still be alive and kicking, for he did not notice his obituary . . . Bill will not need to search any longer, for he is walking and celebrating with his Lord and Savior in heaven. Bill leaves behind Margaret, his loving wife of 74 years; 3 daughters: Joyce Bowers, Janice (Daniel) Grose, and Joanne (Clyde) Williams; 6 grandchildren; 14 great-grandchildren; and 15 great-great-grandchildren. on February 26, 2020.4
