• Notes

  Catherine (Sauder) Westfall was born in Waterloo Co., Ont., July 30, 1859; died at her home in St. Jacobs, Ont., Oct. 23, 1940; aged 81 y. 2 m. 24 d. She was united in marriage in 1883 to William Westfall who predeceased her 6 years ago. To this union were born 10 children of whom 7 survive: Magdalena (Mrs. John Heer), John, Lucinda (Mrs. Simon Wilkie), Christina (Mrs. Norman Brubacher), Mary Ann (Mrs. Nelson Martin), Amanda and Katie. She also leaves 25 grandchildren, 4 great-grandchildren, and 2 brothers (Henry and John Sauder of St. Jacobs, Ont.). Early in the morning of July 6, 1940, she took sick with a heart condition and complications which later proved to be internal cancer. She suffered much pain during her illness but bore it all patiently. Her desire was to go home. She was much concerned about her soul, was constantly striving to prepare herself, and the bright testimony she left gives us the assurance that she was ready to go. The last clear words she said were "Vas Gott tuht das ist wohl getan". She is very much missed, but what is the earthly loss is her gain. Her favourite chapters were John 11 and 14 and she often asked us to read them. She was a member of the Old Order Mennonites till her death. The services at the home and meeting house were conducted by Daniel Brubacher, Daniel Martin, and Abraham Bearinger. Service and burial at Martin's Meetinghouse. Source unknown
