Jeanne Douty Bishop Westfall

Jeanne Douty Bishop Westfall left this world to be with her Heavenly Father on September 23, after a long and heroic fight with cancer. She was born on August 29, 1918 in Weston, West Virginia to Paul Jacob and Sylvia Douty. She was preceded in death by her parents; her husband of 53 years, Paul Bishop; and husband Doyle Westfall. The family lived in Clarksburg until 1959, then relocated to Akron, OH. In their later years, Jeanne and Paul came back home to Weston. Jeanne was a born again Christian, attending the Baptist Church and also teaching classes. Her parents were part of the founders of the Jackson Mills Baptist Church. While raising her daughters, she was constantly sewing clothes and costumes. Very talented, she would volunteer her skills for plays and civic events. Jeanne worked for Amana Foods and Freezers in Polsky's Department Stores and Sears in Clarksburg and Akron. Always wanting to be a nurse, she finished her nurses training at the age of 50. She was a member of Chestnut Hills Garden Club in Clarksburg, she loved her flowers and playing Bridge. She will be missed by her family, daughters, Sharon (George) Walters and Alecia Walent; son-in-law, Edward Gainer; granddaughters Jennifer (Terry) Stone, Stephanie (Thomas) Seese; grandsons Michael (Brenda) Gainer, Jeffrey (Nancy) Gainer and Scott (Melanie) Gainer; also, twelve great-grandchildren. We will miss her smile and gentle nature. The family would like to thank Hospice and all their nurses, aides, everyone who came into contact with Mom, their concern and kindness was on a very personal level. There aren't words to properly express our appreciation, she was their PRINCESS. Cremation will take place and a memorial service will be held at the Boyle Funeral Home in Weston, WV on Saturday, October 3, 2009, at 1 p.m. She will be interred by the side of husband Paul in Patterson Cemetery.
