Ionia Daily Sentinel Standard, 29 May 1919

A Good Woman Gone.

Sarah Jane Warfield was born in Rochester, N.Y., Feb. 18, 1847.  She came from old
colonial ancestors who came from England to Maryland in 1650 and had a prominent
part in the making of early history.  

Coming west when a child from her New York home she has lived in Ionia most of the
seventy years of her life.  In 1868 she married John W. Quayle, a civil war veteran
who died at the same family home in 1892.

Of the five children born to this union four are living.  They are Mrs. W.W.
Andrews, Muskegon; Mrs. Chas. Barber, Portland, Oregon; Mrs. Fred Molitor, Detroit
and the son, W.H. Quayle, also of Detroit.  Of her six brothers and a sister only
one is left.

In 1894 she married Jacob Dillenbeck who died a year ago.

She was a member of Rebekah lodge and served as noble grand in 1906.  For many years
she had been a member of the Ladies’ Relief Corps of the G.A.R.  She united with the
Methodist church when a child and has been a faithful consistent Christian.  She has
been a help to many in their sorrow, forgetting herself always in her unselfish
nature, true to her duty as she saw it.

She had been failing gradually for the past year and Friday night suffered a severe
stroke of paralysis from which she never regained consciousness and died after four
days’ illness, May 7, 1919.  She was a respected and much loved woman and her death
brings great sorrow to all.

The burial will take place at half past two from the family residence on Johnson
street, and will be in the family lot in Highland Park, beside the husband, J.W.
Quayle, who preceded her a quarter of a century.

She was a good woman, the kindest mother, a true friend and has just gone where
there is rest in the Beautiful Home made for the faithful.
