Beloved physician of New Castle section succumbs to heart attack
aggravated by a recent fall
Body shipped to Kansas home
Dr. A. H. Hepler, well known and popular physician of New Castle, CO, passed away early last Monday morning March 25, 1929 at a local hospital, after a short illness, leakage of the heart, aggravated by a fall from a ladder on February 24, being the cause of his demise.
Abraham H. Hepler was born in [Porter Twp] Clarion County, Pennsylvania the son of Jeremiah and Sarah Seifrit Hepler, and was 57 years, 11 months and 25 days old when the end came.
He had been a practicing physician in Garfield County for the past several years, first locating at Silt, CO and then moving to New Castle, CO, where for several years he and his wife have aided in many community enterprises for the general good, and in his death the communities which he served have suffered a distinct loss.
Funeral services were held at New Castle at 1:30 and were very largely attended, the people of the village and the entire country side attesting the high esteem in which the community physician was held by those who knew him intimately and to whom he had ministered.
The body was shipped Tuesday afternoon to his former home at Manhattan, Kansas, accompanied by Mrs. Hepler and by his brother [Clarence Hepler], who is also a doctor, who came from his home in Columbus, Kansas, arriving only a short time before his brother passed away.
Funeral services and interment will be held at Manhattan under the direction of the Masonic fraternity.
