SARAH WARREN
Fort Erie News
[Welland Tribune, 16 April 1897]
Mrs. William Warren, widow of the late Capt. William Warren of Fort Erie, died at the residence of her daughter, Mrs. E.E. Risely of Bertie, on Sunday morning after a short illness. Mrs. Warren lived in Fort Erie most of her life where she was well known and beloved for her many good qualities. Always and ever ready to do what she could for those about her, unselfish and generous to a fault, a perfect mother whose first thought was for her children’s happiness; a Christian woman in the truest sense of the term.
Lately Mrs. Warren had made her home with her daughter, Mrs. Harry Ingles of Niagara Falls, and was only in Bertie on a visit. Little did she think that that visit was to be her last, and that she would never return to the Falls.
She leaves three daughters-Mrs. E. E. Risley of Bertie, Mrs. Frank Anderson of Memphis, Tenn., and Mrs. Harry Ingles of Niagara Falls.
The funeral which was attended by her many warm friends, took place on Friday last at St. Paul’s church yard, Fort Erie in a pouring rain. The Ven. Archdeacon Houston and the Rev. Percy Smith, rector of St. Paul’s officiated. The pallbearers were:-Tom Lewis, Tom Warren, Wm. Rainsford, C. Risely, Wm. Anderson and E. Baxter.
