As Culver City police continue to search for his killer, funeral services for Paul Bilodeau, the city’s overseer at a construction site, will be held at 11 o’clock on Saturday morning in Camarillo.

He will be buried from Conejo Mountain Memorial Park, 2052 Howard Rd., which can be reached via the Lewis Road off-ramp on the westbound 101 freeway.

With no arrest having been made, police will be closely inspecting the turnout for the funeral.

Under baffling circumstances, Mr. Bilodeau was shot to death last Friday night on the grounds of Culver City’s new Fire Station No. 3 in Fox Hills.

He returned to his working trailer headquarters on the Fire Station grounds after dinner with his uncle.

This was around 9 o’clock.

Ironically, the newspaper learned, his uncle, 80-year-old Larry Litalien, was himself the victim of a mugging several weeks earlier.

According to sources, while the exact purpose of Mr. Bilodeau’s return mission remains clouded, they are convinced that it was for reasons linked to his personal life rather than to the construction project.

Mr. Bilodeau, who was 45 years old and single, developed a reputation the last two years in Culver City of focusing almost exclusively on business without ever disclosing a whisper of information about his personal life.

“In fact,” a cousin told the newspaper this afternoon, “Paul comes from a large Italian family, and now he has been taken away from all of us.” His mother, Margaret, was the third youngest of 15 children.

Besides his mother and his father, Conrad, Mr. Bilodeau is survived by two siblings, his twin sister, Paula, and older brother Jim.
