            <text>Templeton Carl “Tiny” Grueser, 71, of Pomeroy, passed away, at 6:06 p.m. on Sunday, October 17, 2021 in the St. Mary’s Medical Center, Huntington, West Virginia. Born May 3, 1950 he was the son of the late Carl Louis and Elva Marie Eblin Grueser. He was commonly known as the water man, as he hauled water to many homes in the area before the water lines were run by the city. He was also known for his pet steer Silmer who he kept in his front yard. He loved his family, and loved watching wrestling, NASCAR, and westerns.&#13;
&#13;
He is survived by his wife Sylvia Roush Grueser, whom he married on September 25, 1984 in Pomeroy, and his sons, Jonathan David (Sandra Powell) Grueser, of Middleport, and Christopher Smith, of Columbus, Ohio.&#13;
&#13;
Graveside services will be held at 1:00 p.m. on Tuesday, October 26, 2021 in the Gilmore Cemetery. The Cremeens-King Funeral Home, Pomeroy is entrusted with the arrangements.</text>
