File Manager - Lygia D. Cutts Obit of Savannah Schoffner - Pike Co., AL "MISS SAVANNAH SCHOFFNER Miss Savannah Schoffner died at her residence on Lake Street, Troy, Thursday night at 11 o'clock of heart disease, from which she had been suffering more of less for a long time. Her friends were aware that her death might be expected at any moment. Miss Schoffner was about forty-five years old and had been a resident of Troy quite a number of years, most of the time engaged in the dressmaking business. She had by industry, economy, and good management accumulated a neat competency and a good home. She was a member of the First Baptist Church and a woman of unostentatious charity, whose deeds will live after her. Her only relatives were Mrs. Senn and family, the former who reached Troy on Friday in time to attend the funeral, which took place Friday afternoon, the interment being in the city cemetery."
