Sarah Katherine Woodward Denman Born in 1905 at Camby, Indiana, passed away June 14, 2006, at her home in Marquette Manor.
With her Quaker roots, Katherine spent her early years in Hendricks County, IN. At the age of 6, she moved with her family to Hancock County, IN and graduated from Mount Comfort High School. She was an alumna of Earlham College.
She was a licensed Ohio Funeral Director, who with her husband Stanley S. Denman owned and operated the Denman Funeral Home in the Cincinnati, Ohio area. On the death of her husband in 1973, she continued the business. However, after 42 years of community services, she sold the business and retired in 1985.
After moving to Indianapolis with her sister, Lois Woodward, she continued community service giving 13 years of volunteering to Community North Hospital. In 1995, she moved to the Marquette Manor Retirement Home.
