Carla Lynn Westfall, 54, of Paxton, formerly of Urbana and Cissna Park

Carla Lynn Westfall, 54, of Paxton, formerly of Urbana and Cissna Park, passed away at 9:35 A.M. Tuesday, October 27, 2020, at Accolade Healthcare in Paxton.  She was born June 26, 1966 in Danville, the daughter of Donald Westfall and Janet (McMurray) Westfall.   

 

Survivors include her mother, Janet, of Savoy; one brother, Michael Westfall, of Chicago; and several cousins.   

 

She was preceded in death by her father, Donald, and her grandparents.   


Carla was a member of the Mattis Avenue Free Methodist Church in Champaign.  She loved music.  During her school years she played the flute, piano, and organ.  She enjoyed listening to music and attending concerts and other music performances.  She collected Precious Moments figurines and would often join her mom in doing embroidering and other arts and crafts projects. Beginning in her late teens Carla struggled with a succession of health setbacks.  But she was a fighter.  One of her proudest accomplishments, after intensive physical and occupational therapy, was being able to move out of her parents’ home and into her own apartment, where she lived independently for several years.   


Cremation rites have been accorded, and a graveside service will be held at 11:00 A.M. Saturday June 26, 2021 at Floral Hill Cemetery in Hoopeston.    

 

Memorials in Carla’s name can be made to the Accolade Healthcare on Pells Activity Department, 1001 E. Pells St. Paxton IL 60957.
