PITTSBURGH POST-GAZETTE FRIDAY, AUGUST 1, 1997 OBITUARIES MATTIE LOU O'KELLEY JOHN H. WARE 111 Pennsylvania Acclaimed folk artist who started at 60 It. Jc mi MMJ'p businessman, congressman By The Associated Press John H. Ware III, a well-known Pennsylvania businessman and former state senator and congressman, died Tuesday in Lancaster. He was 88.

After serving for 10 years in the state Senate, where he was caucus chairman, Mr. Ware won a seat in the U.S. House in 1970 and represented the Ninth Congressional District for two terms before retiring in 1975. The Republican, a 1930 graduate of the Wharton School of Business at the University of Pennsylvania, founded the Penn Fuel Gas and led the firm as president for 45 years before retiring. He also served for 23 years as chairman of the board of American John H.Ware III in 1970 became head of the Museum of American Folk Art, he suggested that Miss O'Kelley move to New York.

Briefly she lived in New York City and painted urban landscapes. Bishop said that the crowds and the cold winter made. New York "a place from which to escape," and she dreamed about having "a little house in the sun." Eventually, she decided to return to the South, moving first to Florida and then in 1983 back to Georgia, making her home in Decatur, where she lived the rest ofher life. Bisfiop died in 1991. Miss O'Kelley has no survivors.

In the 1980s she published several books, "A Winter Place," "From the Hills of Georgia: An Autobiography in Paintings" and "Circus." Her art also appeared on calendars, and in 1980 she had a picture of a cat on the cover of Life magazine. One of her principal collectors was T. Marshall Hahn, a retired executive with Georgia-Pacific. Hahn remembered Miss O'Kelley visiting him on his farm and painting in his yard. Wearing a sunbonnet, she sat at a card table, and sketched, flat on the table, gradually turning a pencil drawing into a painting.

She also wrote poetry, which was as homely as her canvases: Now my one room house has only me, 1 never roam, No lessons have I. But 1 paint And paint And stay at home. By Mel Gussow The New York Times Mattie Lou O'Kelley, a self-taught folk artist who began painting as a hobby at age 60 and became a celebrated visual poet of rural Southern life, died Saturday at her home in Decatur, Ga. She was 89. In her art, she pictured nostalgic views of the Georgia countryside she knew in her childhood in the early part of the 20th century: barns, farmers, animals and gardens filled with flowers and vegetables.

The titles of Miss O'Kelley's paintings reflect her spirit as well as their subject matter "Papa Feeding the Stock at 4 a.m., "Bringing in the Night Water" and a self-portrait, "Mattie in the Morning Glories." Her work is in various museum collections including the American Museum of Folk Art and the High Museum of Art in Atlanta. Robert Bishop, an art dealer and collector and later the director of the American Museum of Folk Art in New York City, is credited with discovering Miss O'Kelley, a story he recounted in 1989 in the introduction to the book "Mattie Lou O'Kelley: Folk Artist. By Mattie Herself." In 1975, he was in Atlanta to lecture about quilts at the High Museum, and Gudmund Vigtel, the director of the museum, told him about a "painting lady" from Maysville, who had traveled to Atlanta by bus to show him her pictures. Vigtel had purchased one for the museum. It was, said Bishop, "a rich, bountiful still life with a basket of lettuce and vegetables and fruit on a vibrant aqua-and-white-checkered tablecloth." Several other O'Kelley pictures were on sale in the museum's gift shop.

Bishop was astonished. Here was, he said, "a true American primitive self-taught, an exquisite recorder of time and place and, most compelling of all," an artist with "a unique vision." He immediately canceled his flight back to Detroit, where he was director of publications at the Henry Ford Museum, and drove 50 miles to find the artist, tracking her down in her one-room cabin in sleepy Maysville. They became friends and he brought her work to the attention of museums and other collectors. She was born in Maysville, in northeast Georgia, as the seventh of eight children, and grew up on a corn and cotton farm. For financial reasons, she was forced to end her schooling in the ninth grade and spent the remainder of her childhood on the family farm.

When her father died in 1943, she moved to the town, where she worked as a seamstress, cook and waitress. After she retired in 1968 at the age of 60, she began to paint. "I had always wanted to paint," she said. "Now I had the time." In 1976, she was honored with a Governor's Award in the Arts for the state of Georgia. As her fame spread, she was written about in newspapers and national magazines and television cameras arrived on her doorstep.

When Bishop FRANK A. KAUFMAN Water Works, which was founded by Mr. Ware's father, the late John H. Ware Jr. Mr.

Ware was also very active in the local Rotary Club, contributing an annual creation and production of a vaudeville-like musical called "The Mirthquake." OTHER DEATHS Judge who ordered busing to desegregate Md. Constance Thompson, 40, the wife of Chi-Lites singer Marshall Thompson and the group's manager, in a Venango County auto accident Saturday. Ms. Thompson and other members of the group had been in New York to promote a single, "Help Wanted," and rented the car to return to Chicago after their tour bus broke down. The Chi-Lites began harmonizing together in the late '50s and became popular during the early '70s vocal-group boom with the 1971 hits, "Have You Seen Her" and "Oh John Furze, 55, a prominent businessman who helped transform the Cayman Islands into a premier offshore banking center, in George Town on July 21 of complications from heart surgery.

Mr. Furze was a dominant financial force in this British Caribbean 'colony for 30 years, helping to develop its offshore banking industry. Winthrop Murray Crane III, 86, a retired executive of the paper maker Crane and a lifelong supporter of the Red Cross and other charities, June 28 in Dalton, Mass. The Crane company produces paper for U.S. and foreign currency, bonds, stationery and social correspondence.

Mr. Crane retired as a vice president in the stationery division in 1976 but con tinued to serve as a corporate director until three years ago. Edward A. Keliiahonui "Du-die" Kawananakoa, 72, a descended of Hawaiian royalty, of cancer Tuesday in Honolulu. He was the grandson of Prince David Kawananakoa and descendent of King Kala-kaua and Queen Kapiolani.

Many in the Hawaiian community considered Mr. Kawananakoa to be the senior heir to the Hawaiian throne if the monarchy had continued. But he said he just considered himself a "good American citizen." Albert Schoepper, 83, a retired Marine Corps colonel who directed the Marine Band, "The President's Own," for 17 years, Monday in Washington, D.C., after suffering a stroke. Mr. Schoepper joined the band in 1934, playing the violin and saxophone.

Upon his retirement in 1972, he estimated that he had directed its appearance before more than 12 million people, including 18 national tours. He made his last White House appearance at a 1972 dinner honoring retiring members of Congress and was asked by President Richard M. Nixon to make a speech at the event. During his retirement ceremony, Mr. Schoepper was awarded the Legion of Merit and his band was given a Presidential Unit Citation.

mersed in his work and gave as an example the many times when, he was a lawyer and would take briefcases filled with his work to games of the Baltimore Orioles, then a minor league team in the International League and one of his clients. While the game was going on, Mr. Kaufman would use the team doctor's telephone and call Stiller, then a junior member of their law firm, to discuss cases, and, he said, "I would hear the roar of the crowd on the telephone." At an American Bar Association meeting in Honolulu in 1980, Mr. Kaufman recalled the day when six members of the American Nazi Party invaded his chambers and he responded by moving his business to another office until the invaders got bored and left. "Don't give kooks the confronta tion that they want," he said.

"Those people wanted to be held in contempt. Sometimes by holding people in contempt, all you do is provoke a riot." His other rulings included a finding in favor of inmates at the Baltimore City Jail in which he held that the jail was unconstitutionally crowded and one that invalidated testing for promotions in the Baltimore City Police Department on the ground that it was racially discriminatory. Mr. Kaufman graduated from Dartmouth College in 1937 and from the Harvard University Law School in 1940. He began practicing law in his native Baltimore but soon joined the government at the outbreak of World War II in various legal capacities.

In 1944 and 1945, he served in the Psychological Warfare Division at the Allied headquarters in Europe. He resumed his law practice after the war and was appointed to the federal bench by President Lyndon B. Johnson in 1966. He took senior judge status, which generally means a reduced workload, in 1986. Stiller said; Mr.

Kaufman frequently took on the more conservative leadership of the American Bar Association, where he served on the board of governors. Stiller said Mr. Kaufman favored increased relations between American and Soviet lawyers during the height of the Cold War. "The conservative ABA didn't want dealingsi with communists," Stiller said, "but he wanted contacts, and he prevailed." By Irvin Molotsky The New York Times Frank A. Kaufman, a U.S.

District Court judge in Baltimore who presided over many important cases and was a leader in the American Bar Association, died yesterday in Baltimore. He was 81. A family friend and former law partner, Shale Stiller, said the cause was a rare blood disease. In the Washington area, Mr. Kaufman was known for his role in residing over one of the nation's iggest courtroom struggles over school desegregation in the suburb of Prince Georges County, Md.

He issued an order in 1972 that busing be used to desegregate the schools, which was upheld on an appeal to the Supreme Court. Stiller on Thursday recalled Mr. Kaufman as a man completely im BD7mJARHES CLASSIFIED ADVERTISING LATEST DEATHS To our readers: The Post-Gazette's comprehensive listings of recent deaths Include two types of obituaries.
