THE BLOOMFIELD NEWS, Bloomfield, Greene County, Indiana, Friday, March 13, 1903,Volume
XXVII, Number 15, Page 1, Column 6, “OBITUARY. Westfall.” [Transcribed August 30, 2003
from microfilm of the original newspaper on file in the Bloomfield-Eastern Greene County
Public Library.]
Sarah Opha WESTFALL was born in Greene County, Indiana August 16, 1882, died February 22,
1903. Age 20 years 7 months and 6 days. She was the daughter of Cyrus and Elizabeth
ISENOGLE, and was married to Aden WESTFALL, December 4, 1902. To this union was born one
child. She was a woman of many accomplishments, was a good musician and was loved by all
who knew her. She will be greatly missed by the family as she was always bright, cheerful
and was the pride of the home. Her death is the first one out of the ISENOGLE family of
seven children. She leaves a husband, one child, father and mother, three sisters and
three brothers to mourn their loss. Although she was not connected with any church she
manifested an interest in all church and Sunday school work, and had expressed the desire
of becoming a Christian. She bore her sickness with calm patience, had a smile and a kind
word for all and near the close of life she sang the lines of the second verse of that
beautiful s!
ong, “Jesus Lover of My Soul.”
Rev H. H. ALLEN, of Bloomfield M. E. Church, preached the funeral sermon to a large
audience at Prairie Chapel, February 24, 1903, where he remains were laid to rest. The
family has the entire sympathy of everyone.
