St. Landry Clarion (Opelousas, La.) 1890-1921, July 12, 1919, Image 1

RESPECTED CITIZENS PASS AWAY IN DEATH

JULES BLOCH AND ERNEST J. DEJEAN JOIN GREAT MAJORITY IN THE PAST WEEK.

Surrounded by his loving and sorrowing family Mr. Ernest J. Dejean succumbed 
to a long and painful illness on the 6th instant, and his remains were 
interred in the Catholic cemetery last Sunday afternoon. A large concourse 
of friends attended the burial services at the Catholic church and followed 
his remains to the cemetery.

No man in this section was more esteemed and loved than Mr. Dejean. His 
kindly disposition and upright character had won for him a tender place in 
the affections of our people in whose midst he was born and reared. Though a 
sufferer from an incurable disease for many years, he never failed to meet 
his friends with a smile and kindly words of greeting. He was modest, gentle 
and tender in all his social relations, and, as a husband and father he more 
than fulfilled every duty. Without enemies, and esteem of every one, his 
death will leave a void in our midst hard, indeed, to fill, and the Clarion 
tenders its sincere condolence to his grief-stricken wife and children.

Additional Comments:
NOTE: Ernest J. Dejean is buried at the Saint Landry Catholic Church cemetery 
located in Opelousas, St. Landry Parish, Louisiana.
