He was at one time employed at the former Hecker-H-O plant in Greenfield, but for many years had lived retired. The late Mr. Powell was an ardent angler and a keen follower of local and national sports. Surviving are two daughters, Mrs. David Richardson (Ileen) in California and Mrs. Robert Hyndman (Frances) of Aldergrove, B.C.; two brothers, William of Brantford and Ben of Hatchley.
