Walter Thomas Lenoir, son of Walter Raleigh and Sarah Evalina Bouchelle Lenoir, died in Ohio at the home of his daughter, Annie Lenoir, but came "home" to rest in Boone County Missouri in the Columbia Cemetery.

Obit: Columbia Daily Tribune

"Dr. T.W. Lenoir, 93 formerly of Columbia, died Friday afternoon at his home in Cincinnati. He was taken ill at the dinner table Christmas day and was unconscious from that time until the time of his death.

Funeral services will be at 2 o'clock Tuesday afternoon at the Christian church here. The Rev. Madison A. Hart will conduct the services. Burial will be in the Columbia cemetery.

Until about twenty years ago Doctor Lenoir was a resident of Columbia and one of the prominent physicians of Boone county. His first wife was Miss Fannie Shannon, daughter of President Shannon of the University. After her death he was married to Miss Nannie Walker of Howard county, a teacher in Christian College.

For the last few years he was made his home with his daughters, Mrs. George Walker, Mrs. R.J. Skinner and Miss Annie Lenoir in Cincinnati. Besides these he is survived by two sons, George Lenoir of Armstrong and Dr. James Lenoir of Fulton and a brother, Slater Lenoir of Columbia. A niece Mrs. F.G. Nifong, wife of Doctor Nifong lives in Columbia.

Doctor Lenoir was closely identified with the early religions life of the county, being for many years a member of the Christian church. He was on the Board of Curators of Christian College as long, perhaps, as he was a resident of Columbia. In 1873-74-75 he was on the Board of Curators of the University of Missouri. He was treasurer of the University from 1855 to 1862.

Doctor Lenoir was graduated from the University of Missouri in 1849. He was a class mate and life long friend of R.B. Price of Columbia.

Doctor Lenoir was appointed by Governor G. Gratz Brown manager of State Asylum at Fulton, which position he held for four or five years. He was a Knight Templar, being at one time master of the lodge."
