Sadie West, 71, Laid to Rest in Maplewood Cemetery, Sept. 10, 1924

West Funeral Held Tuesday

The remains of Mrs. Sadie West, 71, wife of D.J. West, whose death occurred Monday morning at the family home, 815 West Pettigrew street, following a lingering illness, were laid tenderly to rest in the quiet of Maplewood cemetery Tuesday afternoon, following funeral services from the late home at 2:30 o’clock, conducted by the Rev. Geo. L. Cooper, pastor of Trinity Avenue Presbyterian church, of which the deceased was a member. The last sad rites were attended by numerous friends and the wilderness of flowers representing the floral offerings of friends was a mute but beautiful testimonial of the respect and esteem in which the deceased was held.
