WILLIAM HARVEY SHIFLETT

The Greene County Record Thursday August 26, 1926

THE DEATH RECORD - William Harvey Shiflett died at the University hospital Aug. 3, 1926. He had been ill for only a day before he was taken to the hospital, where he remained a week before his death. All his life was spent in Greene County, except two years near Proffits, where he was living at the time of his death. He was 33 years old, 15 of which were spent in the Brethren Church. All who knew him know that he was a lovable man. He was indeed an honest, cheerful, devoted and considerate character. His face was always one to be looked upon as a bright happy nature shining through. His sympathies were broad and his respect for personality was great. His kind and gentle expressions never ceased to make beautiful long impressions upon all who met him. In all his business dealings and transactions I can safely say that he was worthy of the highest confidence and his sincerity was easily seen in all his actions whether big or little. Unquestionably he was a loyal friend, a good father and husband. His suffering was endured with the very best of spirit to the last moment. Although conscious of death, he liked to talk to the folks, who were around him about his experiences with them. His words were never out of place and his last words to his faithful companion were of the highest sensibility and yet very touching. He leaves to mourn his loss a wife and six children, two sisters, four brothers, and his father. His sisters are Mrs. James Shiflett, of Burnley, and Mrs. Jesse Lawson, of Earlysville; his brothers Messer s. Ben and Robert Shiflett, of Burnley, and Hoover and Harding Shiflett, at home with their father. He was laid to rest in Evergreen Cemetery Aug. 4. Rev. G. A. Maupin conducted the funeral. The pallbearers were Messer s. James, William, Edd, Clyde, and Isaac Knight, and Dewey Shiflett. A large crowd attended, many of whom left with heavy hearts and with long living memories. One who loved him dearly.
